Ometric Announces Real-time, In-line Monitoring of Liquid Processes


COLUMBIA, S.C., March 8 -- Spectroscopy innovator Ometric Corporation announced today that its SpectrInline Processware(TM) has demonstrated real-time, in-line, instantaneous monitoring of liquid processes, using patented Multivariate Optical Computing(TM) (MOC(TM)) technology.

Ometric Corporation's SpectrInline Processware(TM) provides real-time, in- line control of production processes and final product testing for a wide variety of industries, including pharmaceuticals, chemicals, agriculture, food and beverage, environmental, plastics, oil and gas, and homeland security.

In a live demonstration at PITTCON® 2006, Ometric's SpectrInline Processware(TM) will demonstrate real time detection of water in oil from concentrations varying between zero and two percent, with an accuracy of 99 percent and with a total measurement time of one-tenth of a second. This is just one example of SpectrInline Processware's(TM) performance in a general liquid phase application.

The ability to measure liquid processes and liquid blends, in-line and in real-time, is key to many industries for ensuring final quality of their products, as well as eliminating waste when process control depends upon long feedback times incurred in sample analysis.

Executive Vice President and Chief Technology Officer Dr. Robert Freese noted that the results obtained highlight how Ometric's innovative technology can help many industries which process liquid compounds to realize substantial savings by instant monitoring of their production processes.

Ometric will provide live demonstrations of high-speed liquid analysis at PITTCON® 2006 in Orlando, Fla., from March 13 to 16. Additional demonstrations will include 100 percent analysis of 5 tablets per second, real-time blending of powders and high-speed raw material analysis.

The PITTCON® 2006 exposition will be held at the Orange County Convention Center. Ometric will be in Hall D, Booth # 5657. Join the countdown to real-time, in-line process control and final product testing by visiting www.ometric.com.
