Real-time, in-line monitoring of disinfectant concentration
A leading manufacturer has integrated Ilmsens' impedance spectroscopy to precisely determine disinfectant concentrations. The innovative ultra wideband technology offers the potential for continuous, real-time monitoring, paving the way for a fully automated and efficient disinfection process.
The problem
Precisely dosing disinfectants in industrial cleaning settings has long presented a significant challenge. The diversity of disinfectants, each with its unique chemical properties and varying degrees of potency, adds a layer of complexity. Furthermore, the presence of organic matter, debris, and other contaminants in the cleaning solutions, often referred to as "matrix effects," can interfere with the accurate measurement of disinfectant concentrations. This interference can lead to inaccurate dosing, either under- or over-applying the disinfectant. Under-dosing can compromise disinfection efficacy, potentially leading to microbial contamination and product spoilage. Conversely, over-dosing not only wastes valuable resources but also poses environmental risks and can even damage sensitive surfaces or equipment. The need for real-time monitoring further compounds the challenge, as traditional methods are often time-consuming and labor-intensive, making it difficult to adjust dosing strategies in a timely manner.
The solution
Faced with the challenges of traditional disinfectant concentration monitoring, the search for a more reliable and efficient solution led to the development of Ilmsens' ultra-broadband impedance spectroscopy.
This innovative technology, with its unique ability to analyze the electrical properties of liquids over an exceptionally wide frequency range, proved to be a game-changer. Unlike traditional methods, which often struggle with interference from impurities and variations in disinfectant types, this technology offers unparalleled accuracy and robustness.
By continuously monitoring the impedance of the disinfection solution, it provides real-time data on disinfectant concentration, enabling precise dosing and ensuring optimal cleaning efficacy at all times.
The value
This breakthrough in disinfectant monitoring translates into significant benefits across diverse industries. In industrial cleaning, for instance, businesses can now optimize disinfectant usage, minimizing waste and reducing operating costs. By ensuring precise and consistent disinfectant levels, they enhance product quality, minimize the risk of contamination, and improve overall process stability. This not only strengthens their competitive edge but also ensures compliance with stringent industry regulations and environmental standards.
Furthermore, the applications of this technology extend far beyond industrial cleaning. From pharmaceutical manufacturing and food processing to water treatment and environmental remediation, this technology empowers industries to optimize their disinfection processes, enhance product safety, and minimize their environmental impact.
