Raman Spectroscopy in Process Control

Raman spectroscopy has gained a lot of interest in recent years. Capable of yielding chemical identification/quantification information, it is a possible alternative to the more wide-spread, complimentary techniques of FT-IR and near-IR spectroscopy. tec5USA specializes in UV-VIS-NIR and Raman spectroscopic instrumentation for process control. Their Systems Product Manager discusses Raman spectroscopy and some of the challenges of incorporating this method into process control.
