A large dairy which produces numerous types of white cheese has improved their ultrafiltration and reverse osmosis systems using Satron’s optical sensors. The innovative VOD sensor measures the purity of the permeate, (the liquid that has passed through a filter or filtrate) and thus the effectiveness of the filtration.

The Satron VOD optical sensor measures the absorption of light by the liquid as it passes the sensor. The absorption is measured with light of different wavelengths depending on the desired application. Its ability to detect remnants of fat, protein or lactose in a liquid, means that it can monitor if there are milk residues in water.

Therefore, Satron is trusted to protect quality and productivity by providing 24/7 monitoring and immediate detection of the non-optimal operation of either the ultrafiltration or reverse osmosis processes. A process operator will be alerted to resolve any problems that arise to quickly optimise the membrane filtration, and resume full capacity. The sensors protect against product loss and also have environmental benefits, helping to ensure more sustainable production.

A continuous improvement engineer at the plant explained: – “An O ring seal may fail in the Ultra Filtration system, causing a leak, so that the efficiency of the whole system decreases. This is detected by the sensor immediately and gives an alarm to the process operator who can get the O-ring changed, and then the membrane filtration system can get back to full production again.”

“Since the sensor measures the purity in the permeate, then registers it immediately if the permeate contains fat or protein – and that’s just fat and protein collected in the retentate. Without the sensor, the valuable fat and protein would run into the permeate and be lost, thereby the yield of membrane filtration would be significantly reduced.”

Filter efficiency decreases with time

Four Satron VOD optical sensors are installed on the various membrane systems. As the membranes gradually become worn, their capacity decreases until it is time to change the membranes. When the membranes are worn, small amounts of fat, protein or lactose enter the permeate, which the Satron sensor detects.

With the information from the sensors and analysis of the permeate, the dairy can change the membranes at an optimal time.

Recycling water for CIP

The dairy also fitted one Satron VOD sensor on their reverse osmosis system, because the permeate from the ultrafiltration plant contains valuable lactose that is not filtered out.

Reverse osmosis is a filtration technology, where the incoming liquid is pressed through a very fine membrane, typically as fine as 0.001 to 0.0001µm, which can filter both ions and dissolved substances, for example, lactose.

The dairy’s reverse osmosis plant therefore captures the lactose and an income stream is now provided by supplying the extracted lactose to other dairies for further processing. Improving the utilisation of all of the milk’s constituents enables more sustainable operation of the dairy. After the reverse osmosis treatment, the permeate is now clean enough to be used instead of fresh water, significantly reducing the dairy’s water consumption.

Satron has a range of optical sensors to provide optimal solutions to many applications and are trusted in many dairies, creameries and food and beverage plants.

To optimise measurement and control accuracy for low liquid volumes, Coriolis sensors are often the prime technology choice. Providing a true mass flow reading with accuracy down to ±0.2%, these devices are also highly repeatable. Coriolis technology is suited to applications that must ensure precise flow control, whether to meet quality requirements in food & beverage products or maximise efficacy of a medicine. However, high accuracy over low liquid volumes can also save costs long term when expensive media is involved.

Troy Stehr, Industry Account Manager – Lab & Medtech at Bürkert, explores the technology behind Coriolis mass flow meters and controllers.

When you next enjoy a packet of potato crisps, you almost certainly won’t notice a difference in flavour from one crisp to the next. This is thanks to the highly accurate dosing of relatively low volumes of strong yet concentrated flavouring, and the consistency in taste is an essential aspect of ensuring consumer quality.

Accurate control of low volume liquid dosing is also vital to ensure the safety and potency of food additives, such as thiamine (vitamin B1) and vitamin D in fortified breakfast cereals. This also applies to pharmaceutical products, and to ensure optimal drug effectiveness while preventing overdosing, in medicines ranging from liquid capsules to vaccine injections, here too, exacting accuracy is imperative.

Before such products reach their end users, they will typically undergo controls. If inaccurate dosing is identified, down to the smallest possible volume, this could impact an entire production batch. When expensive media is involved, the investment in technology to prevent this situation becomes essential.

Coriolis effect

To achieve high accuracy fluid control and metering for applications like these, the original theory came from the nineteenth century Parisien mathematician and scientist, Gaspard-Gustave de Coriolis. He discovered an effect that relates to an inertial force acting on objects in motion within a rotating system. In the field of liquid and gas flow, Coriolis control and metering devices involve a suspended, S-shaped measuring tube, set in high-frequency magnetic vibration by an exciter coil.

When a liquid flows through the tube, the liquid’s inertia acts on the tube’s vibration, causing what’s known as a phase shift. This vibrational change is directly proportional to the mass flow of the liquid, and is measured by two sensors, positioned at each end of the tube. The higher the flow rate, the greater the oscillation deflections of the measuring tube.

This process can also provide a density reading of the flowing liquid by measuring the vibration frequency, instead of the oscillation deflections. The higher the density, the lower the frequency. In fact, with a Coriolis-based device, it’s possible to simultaneously measure mass flow, volumetric flow, density and temperature.

High accuracy

In recent years, technology has allowed the Coriolis principle to be used for increasingly lower flow rates, enabling dosing of the smallest volume of liquids, precisely, quickly, and repeatably. Bürkert’s Type 8756 mass flow meter/controller, based on the Coriolis effect, has a flow rate accuracy reading as low as ±0.2%. This is achieved with a repeat accuracy deviation of just ±0.1% for a flow rate up to 25 kg/h, or ±0.05% repeatability for a flow rate up to 120 kg/h.

Crucially, this reading is based on true mass flow, independent from the impact of the media, pressure, or temperature. Compared to other mass flow meter technologies, this means much higher accuracy. A thermal mass flow meter, for example, is accurate to around ±1%, and also requires recalibration for every new fluid type introduced. However, this type of mass flow meter takes a volumetric reading that is then corrected to mass, a device based on the Coriolis effect measures mass flow directly in milligrams, grams, and kilograms.

Maximising productivity

The Type 8756 can also be supplied with an integrated batch controller, providing extremely fast measurement and control for fast dosing, which increases productivity. With a dosing range as low as 0.05g…100g, a dosing time of 0.05s…7s can be achieved. Productivity is also enhanced through a digital connection, meaning that dosing processes are reproducible. This digital approach means that all ingredients and quantities can be recorded and documented, which is advantageous to save time in set up, as well as for conformance purposes.

To develop a highly accurate and productive system, where there is an external pressure source, Bürkert combines the Type 8756 Coriolis flow sensor with a matched control valve suited to the process specification. This could range from a proportional valve for continuous pulsation free flow delivery, through to a Lorentz actuator valve for extremely fast dosing applications.

When an external pressure source isn’t available, Bürkert combines the Coriolis flow sensor with a gear pump.  Pump speed is controlled by the Coriolis device itself to generate the precise pressure required for the desired flow rate.  The fine teeth of the gear pump give continuous and extremely smooth flow delivery. To achieve modular mass flow control, it’s also possible to combine the Coriolis mass flow meter/controller with wider pump technologies, like peristaltic pumps, syringe pumps, or motor speed controllers.

Low total cost of ownership

While Coriolis technology is often the first choice for applications that demand optimum accuracy, even for applications where the stakes for the process outcome aren’t as high, investing in Coriolis technology can be advantageous to reduce costs long term.

For example, municipal water companies often insert a small quantity of orthophosphoric acid into sections of the water supply network that involve lead piping, in order to prevent water contamination. Control accuracy down to 0.2% is not required for this process itself, but because of the high cost of orthophosphoric acid, minimising the quantity used can save significant costs over time. Coriolis technology can also be used in measurement for cost-saving purposes to ensure suppliers deliver agreed volumes and concentrations of liquid media. 

Even if accuracy still isn’t a concern for a low volume liquid control and metering application, Bürkert can provide a broad choice of other technologies. Alternatively, for applications that require even greater accuracy for smaller doses than Coriolis devices can provide, the new µLDC technology is the next step.

Resolve Optics is a leading European designer and supplier of application optimised lenses for satellite developers seeking to operate optical instruments in Low Earth Orbit (LEO).

A LEO satellite operates relatively close to Earth’s surface. LEO satellites orbit at an altitude of 160 -1000 km – which is low compared to other orbits, but still very far above the Earth’s surface. Most LEO satellites are used for observation and science as being nearer the Earth’s surface allows optical instruments to take higher resolution images.

Customer support manager of Resolve Optics – Rob Watkinson said “Optical instruments for use in space are designed to survive a specified total absorbed radiation dose (expressed in Rad) over the lifetime of a mission. Standard glass types will turn dark as they absorb radiation and although the radiation levels in LEO are relatively low, over an extended period of time a standard lens will still deteriorate until the point it is no longer useable”.

He added “Generally, we recommend that any LEO mission lasting a year or more, should use radiation resistant optics to guarantee good transmission for the entire length of the mission. However, sometimes there may be a performance criterion that is considered more important than longevity. Recently a customer asked us to produce a custom lens able to operate over a very wide bandwidth. Using only radiation resistant optical materials in the optical design would have been limiting as there isn’t enough variety in the glass types available to provide good colour correction over the full bandwidth. In a situation like this, the customer opted for good performance over the full bandwidth for a limited time, to be more important to them than having poorer performance over an extended operating lifetime. Other optical design situations that may warrant the use of standard optical material rather than radiation resistant glasses are when the LEO application requires high resolution or athermal performance over a very large temperature range.

He concluded “The key considerations when designing lenses for use in LEO satellites is how they react to the vibration and shock of launch, extremes of temperature, high vacuum and the cosmic radiation encountered in space”.

Photoionisation detection (PID) sensors are able to detect potential problems before they occur in the manufacture and use of lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries, and the enormous variety of devices that use rechargeable batteries.

The safe utilisation of Li-ion batteries is a key concern for the developers of equipment such as electric vehicles, e-bikes, mobile phones and laptops. The risks posed by Li-ion batteries have been highlighted by a number of high-profile incidents. In 2006 and 2007, for example, millions of laptops and mobile phones were recalled due to safety fears relating to their Li-ion batteries, and in 2013, a Boeing 787 was grounded following electrical issues with the Li-ion battery in the aircraft’s auxiliary power unit.

Famously, in 2016, around 2.5 million mobile phones had to be recalled after complaints of overheating and exploding batteries. Extensive investigations revealed insufficient insulation material within the batteries and a design that did not provide sufficient space to safely accommodate the batteries’ electrodes, resulting in thermal runaway, which occurs when temperatures are raised by thermal or mechanical failure, short circuiting, or electrical abuse. In more recent news, there has been a 60% increase in e-bike fires in London in 2023 compared to 2022, and this number will continue to rise. As a result of the magnitude of this problem, and the global publicity which ensues, demand is growing for sensing technology that can detect faulty Li-ion batteries, during both production and operation.

The main safety hazards associated with failing Li-ion batteries are the ignition of the battery cell and/or the emissions of toxic gases. These gases include volatile organic compounds (VOCs), meaning sensitive VOC sensors can be used to check the condition of these batteries – either within portable detectors or in process/plant monitoring equipment.

The anode in rechargeable Li-ion batteries is typically graphite, the cathode is a metal oxide, and the electrolyte is usually a lithium salt in a (flammable) organic solvent. This electrolyte includes compounds such as ethyl methyl carbonate (EMC) which is known to be among the gases emitted by a faulty Li-ion battery. Conveniently, EMC can be detected by ION Science’s PID, so the developers of monitoring systems and equipment are able to design technologies that utilise ION’s MiniPID sensors.

The Response Factors for VOCs commonly used in Li-ion battery electrolytes are presented in Table 1: Evaluation of chemicals used in lithium-ion batteries.

Due to their specificity, PID sensors are the most commonly employed technology for the detection of VOCs, and ION’s MiniPID range includes the most sensitive PID sensor in the world, which makes it ideal for the detection of trace leaks from faulty Li-ion batteries.

Summarising, Peter Morris from ION Science says: “Prospective customers for our PID sensors in Li-ion battery applications include the developers of portable instruments, as well as the designers of monitoring systems for processes within battery manufacturing, as well as in the manufacture of EVs, e-bikes, laptops, tablets, phones and many others.”
