New measure technique for PMI (positive materials identification) analysing of alloys for metal and process industry by means of coulormetric sampling and spectrophotometric determination

Objective

In the industry (metals industry, chemical industry, food and beverage industry) it regularly happens that alloys are mixed up. Use of wrong materials can lead to corrosion or mechanical failre, resulting into possible accidents, environmental damages and financial claims. In this project, a fast measure method for use on locations will be developed. Research will be required to develop the sampling electrode, the optics (colour measuring), electronics and software. Research will also be required to develop the electrolytes and chemical colour indicators, including optimalisation of tenavbility of solutions.
