Announcement of the PAT Award for Young Scientists sponsored by Knick
The German Working Group "Prozessanalytik" in cooperation with Knick Elektronische Messgeräte GmbH & Co. KG will award the 8th Knick Process Analytics Award to a young scientist for an outstanding publication in the field of Process Analytics. The prize is endowed with 3.000 €. The EuroPACT 2023 award committee will select the winner and hand over the Award at the Europact 2023 in Copenhagen, 07-10 May 2023.

Applicants should be the main contributing author of a paper printed or accepted for publication in an international peer-reviewed journal in 2021, 2022 or 2023. They should be no older than 30 years of age. Applicants may apply individually, or they can be recommended by another scientist.
Applications or recommendations should be submitted in electronic form (preferably PDF) by 8th April 2023 and should include a copy of the paper, a CV, a brief description of the scientific contribution, and the reasons why the candidate merits the award.

All applications should be sent by email to the following address: Tobias Eifert

Announcement

EuroPACT 2023 provides a unique meeting and a discussion forum for researchers, suppliers and users of process analytics from both academia and industry.

During the EuroPACT discussion rounds, we will make a deep dive into two of the following five topics for 45 min each in parallel to the poster session.

The two topics will be selected by the scientific committee according to the respective votes from all participants during the registration process.

1. Circularity economy with PAT – Discussing new measurement tasks

Production steps in the circular economy enabled through PAT sensors is an important topic for the future. The discussion is targeting for measurement tasks contributing for sustainable production in the future. Zero CO2, ecological footprint along the value chain and future contributions for environmental impact and circular economy are contents to be discussed.

2. PAT improving Energy Efficiency – Discussing new measurement tasks delivering added value

Improving the energy efficiency of production processes is crucial for the future competitiveness of all processing industries – from (petro)-chemicals over pharmaceuticals to foods & feeds. The discussion is targeting for PAT applications contributing for lower energy consumption in the future.

3. Miniaturization@PAT – Discussing new measurement technologies

Miniaturization of sensor technology is a future trend which can be observed. Discussing new potential measurement tasks for miniaturized PAT sensor technologies delivering added value for the industry should be executed in this session.

4. PAT vitality Data – a concept to use vitality data for changing reactive maintenance to predictive maintenance?

The content of the PAT@NOA (NOA = NAMUR OPEN Architecture) concept is an automated provision of PAT vitality data as base for predictive maintenance and better process understanding. To achieve that, an intelligent maintenance demand signal for PAT equipment based on vitality data is key. Automated real time condition monitoring of analytical field equipment leads to cheaper operation and maintenance of PAT equipment and less failures. By this the huge potential for cost savings can be leveraged and process understanding is improved.

5. AI@PAT – can Artificial Intelligence contribute to a better process understanding

Using PAT vitality and raw data is contributing to a game change from reactive maintenance to condition monitoring based predictive maintenance. In addition, the combination of vitality data of sensors being in a contextual relation in a process may contribute to a next level of process understanding and automated process control. This discussion shall create ideas how to clarify this with future lighthouse projects.

 

Interested participants are invited to join EuroPACT's pre conference course on fundamentals for process analytics in industrial applications and model lifecycling in the field.

The course will be held by leading industry experts.

The course "fundamentals on PAT in industrial applications" will cover
-PAT project management - from measurement task to business case
-Sampling and sample handling systems
-Instrumental design in industrial use

The course "model life cycling in the field" will cover
-Chemometics in the age of artificial intelligence
-Model deployment and maintenence
-Data driven optimization of and with PAT

Are you interested in additional topics? Please leave us a message.

 

Registration for EUropact and the courses

EuroPACT 2023 provides a unique meeting and a discussion forum for researchers, suppliers and users of process analytics from both academia and industry. The conference program will include plenary and invited lectures and plenty of opportunity for discussion with colleagues during poster sessions, speed dating and discussion rounds.

The conference will be completed by an exhibition of instrumentation, applications and data evaluation tools.

The exhibition, fully integrated in the conference, offers a unique opportunity to promote your technologies, products and services.

We expect about 250 participants from academia and industry.

At EuroPACT2023 you can connect with decision makers from research and industry.

This is a great opportunity to strengthen your network as you build up existing and generate new relationships.

We offer a range of opportunities for a participation of your company as exhibitor or sponsor. Please find further information in our linked PDF file.
