Fluence Analytics: Revolutionizing Polymerization Reactions and Biopharmaceutical Stability Monitoring
Fluence Analytics is a leading provider of innovative products and services for the real-time monitoring of polymerization reactions and biopharmaceutical stability. The company's cutting-edge technologies enable customers to optimize their processes, reduce costs, improve product quality, and accelerate time-to-market.
Founded in 2013 as a spin-off from Tulane University, Fluence Analytics has quickly established itself as a trusted partner for companies across various industries, including chemicals, pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, materials science, and more. With its headquarters in New Orleans and offices in Houston and Europe (Germany), the company serves customers worldwide.
What sets Fluence Analytics apart from its competitors is its unique combination of advanced analytics software (ARGEN) with proprietary hardware sensors (ACOMP). This powerful duo allows users to monitor critical parameters such as molecular weight distribution (MWD), reaction kinetics, viscosity changes, gelation onset time (GOT), cure rate index (CRI), among others. By collecting this data in real-time at high frequency intervals (~1 sec), ARGEN can generate accurate insights into the behavior of complex chemical systems that were previously impossible to obtain.
Moreover, ARGEN's user-friendly interface enables operators to visualize the data in customizable dashboards that highlight key trends or anomalies. This feature facilitates decision-making processes by providing actionable information that can help prevent process upsets or deviations before they occur.
ACOMP sensors are designed to be compatible with various reactor types such as batch reactors or continuous flow reactors. They are also suitable for different polymer chemistries such as polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polyurethane foam (PUF), polystyrene latexes (PSLs) among others. ACOMP sensors have been validated against industry-standard techniques such as gel permeation chromatography (GPC) or nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy(NMR).
In addition to ARGEN/ACOMP products suite Fluence Analytics offers consulting services tailored to customer needs ranging from feasibility studies on new applications/processes development through optimization/troubleshooting existing ones.
The benefits of using Fluence Analytics' solutions are numerous:
- Improved process understanding: By having access to real-time data on critical parameters during polymerization reactions or biopharmaceutical stability tests.
- Reduced cycle times: By identifying optimal reaction conditions faster than traditional methods.
- Enhanced product quality: By detecting deviations early on before they become irreversible.
- Cost savings: By reducing waste/scrap rates due to off-specification products.
- Increased safety: By preventing accidents caused by unexpected events during chemical reactions.
Fluence Analytics' customer base includes some of the world's largest chemical companies like Dow Chemicals or BASF but also smaller startups like Carbon Clean Solutions which uses ACOMP technology for CO2 capture applications. The company has received several awards recognizing its innovation capabilities such as R&D100 Award 2020 for ARGEn platform.
In conclusion,
Fluence Analytics is an innovative company that delivers state-of-the-art solutions for monitoring polymerization reactions and biopharmaceutical stability testing. Its unique combination of advanced analytics software with proprietary hardware sensors provides users with unprecedented insights into complex chemical systems while enabling them to make informed decisions faster than ever before.
