Biomass pellets are required as a source of energy because of their abundant and high energy. The rapid measurement of pellets is used to control the biomass quality during the production process. The objective of this work was to use near infrared (NIR) hyperspectral images for predicting the properties, i.e., fuel ratio (FR), volatile matter (VM), fixed carbon (FC), and ash content (A), of commercial biomass pellets. Models were developed using either full spectra or different spatial wavelengths, i.e., interval successive projections algorithm (iSPA) and interval genetic algorithm (iGA), wavelengths and different spectral preprocessing techniques. Their performances were then compared. The optimal model for predicting FR could be created with second derivative (D2) spectra with iSPA-100 wavelengths, while VM, FC, and A could be predicted using standard normal variate (SNV) spectra with iSPA-100 wavelengths. The models for predicting FR, VM, FC, and A provided R2 values of 0.75, 0.81, 0.82, and 0.87, respectively. Finally, the prediction of the biomass pellets’ properties under color distribution mapping was able to track pellet quality to control and monitor quality during the operation of the thermal conversion process and can be intuitively used for applications with screening.

<p>Across Europe there are 2.5 million potentially contaminated sites, approximately one third have already been identified and around 15% have been sanitized. Phytoremediation is a well-established technique to tackle this problem and to rehabilitate soil. However, remediation methods, such as biological treatments with microorganisms or phytoremediation with trees, are still relatively time consuming. A fast monitoring of changes in heavy metal content over time in contaminated soils with hyperspectral spectroscopy is one of the first key factors to improve and control existing bioremediation methods.</p><p>At former sewage farms near Ragow (Brandenburg, Germany), 110 soil samples with different contamination levels were taken at a depth between 15-20 cm. These samples were prepared for hyperspectral measurements using the HySpex system under laboratory conditions, combing a VNIR (400-1000 nm) and a SWIR (1000-2500 nm) line-scan detector. Different spectral pre-processing methods, including continuum removal, first and second derivatives, standard normal variate, normalisation and multiplicative scatter correction, with two established estimation models such as Partial Least Squares Regression (PLSR) and Random Forest Regression (RFR), were applied to predict the heavy metal concentration (Ba, Ni, Cr, Cu) of this specific Technosol. The coefficient of determination (R2) shows for Ba and Ni values between 0.50 (RMSE: 9%) and 0.61 (RMSE: 6%) for the PLSR and between 0.84 (RMSE: 0.03%) and 0.91 (RMSE: 0.02%) for the RFR model. The results for Cu and Cr show values between 0.57 (RMSE: 17.9%) and 0.69 (RMSE: 15%) for the PLSR and 0.86 (0.12%) and 0.93 (0.01%) for the RFR model. The pre-processing method, which improve the robustness and performance of both models best, is multiplicative scatter correction followed by the standard normal variate for the first and second derivatives. Random Forest in a first approach seems to deliver better modeling performances. Still, the pronounced differences between PLSR and RFR fits indicate a strong dependence of the results on the respective modelling technique. This effect is subject to further investigation and will be addressed in the upcoming analysis steps.</p>

Penelitian ini bertujuan memprediksi total padatan terlarut buah melon golden menggunakan Vis-SWNIRS dan analisis multivariat. 82 sampel buah melon golden dipanen untuk dianalisis di Laboratorium Hortikultura, Fakultas Pertanian, Universitas Padjadjaran. Nirvana AG410 spectrometer dengan rentang panjang gelombang 300 sampai 1050 nm digunakan untuk pengambilan data spektra pada sampel buah melon utuh. Metode koreksi spektra yang digunakan yaitu standard normal variate (SNV), multiplicative scatter correction (MSC), dan orthogonal signal correction (OSC). Pemodelan kalibrasi dilakukan menggunakan partial least squares regression (PLSR). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa penggunaan metode koreksi spektra OSC menampikan model kalibrasi terbaik dibandingkan spektra original dan 2 spektra lainnya yang telah dikoreksi. Koefisien determinasi pada spektra OSC memperlihatkan nilai R2 tertinggi yaitu 0.99, disamping itu nilai ratio performance to deviation (RPD) yang diperoleh sebesar 3.40. Hal ini membuktikan bahwa total padatan terlarut buah melon golden dapat diprediksi dengan akurasi yang tinggi menggunakan Vis-SWNIRS dan analisis multivariat.

Scale differences of individual near-infrared spectra are identified when set-independent standard normal variate (SNV) and de-trend (DT) transformations are applied in either SNV followed by DT or DT then SNV order. The relationship of set-dependent multiplicative scatter correction (MSC) to SNV is also referred to. A simple correction factor is proposed to convert derived spectra from one order to the other. It is suggested that the suitable order for the study of changes using difference spectra (when removing baselines) should be DT followed by SNV, which leads to all derived spectra on the scale of mean zero and variance equal to one. If baselines are identical, then SNV scale spectra can be used to calculate differences.

Powdery mildew is a worldwide major fungal disease for grapevine, which adversely affects both crop yield and produce quality. Disease identification is based on visible signs of a pathogen once the plant has already been infected; therefore, techniques that allow objective diagnosis of the disease are currently needed. In this study, the potential of hyperspectral imaging (HSI) technology to assess the presence of powdery mildew in grapevine bunches was evaluated. Thirty Carignan Noir grape bunches, 15 healthy and 15 infected, were analyzed using a lab-scale HSI system (900–1700 nm spectral range). Image processing was performed to extract spectral and spatial image features and then, classification models by means of Partial Least Squares Discriminant Analysis (PLS-DA) were carried out for healthy and infected pixels distinction within grape bunches. The best discrimination was achieved for the PLS-DA model with smoothing (SM), Standard Normal Variate (SNV) and mean centering (MC) pre-processing combination, reaching an accuracy of 85.33% in the cross-validation model and a satisfactory classification and spatial location of either healthy or infected pixels in the external validation. The obtained results suggested that HSI technology combined with chemometrics could be used for the detection of powdery mildew in black grapevine bunches.

Abstract A new technique (Flash Titration™) for the determination of total acidity and total alkalinity was applied to food and beverage analysis. Requiring no liquid titrants, Flash Titration is a technique made possible through microfabrication of electrochemical components on a silicon chip. Acidic or basic titrant was generated electrochemically at a noble-metal electrode that intimately surrounded an ion-selective, field-effect transistor pH sensor. As acid or base was generated through electrolysis, sample alkalinity or acidity, respectively, was neutralized in the immediate vicinity of the electrode. Through diffusion, a zone comprising a gradient of partially to totally neutralized sample expanded from the generating electrode into the volume element sensed by the nearby pH sensor. An analysis of the pH signal versus time revealed an end point inflection at an elapsed time related to the total alkalinity or acidity of the sample. End point times were typically a few seconds. In this paper, Flash Titration was applied to the analysis of a variety of samples, including juices, soft drinks, wines, and food products. The differences between the results obtained by the Flash Titration method and a commonly used conventional volumetric method were less than 2% in most food products tested. Analysis costs were reduced both through time saving and reduction or elimination of hazardous liquid titrant disposal, by the use of the Flash Titration method.

The nondestructive and high sensitive analysis of a low content of an active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) was a difficult problem, especially in a complex system of pharmaceutical formulations. In this paper, a rapid and no sample preparation method was developed, which used a 1064 nm Raman spectrometer to detect entecavir monohydrate (ETV-H) in Baraclude tablets. Entecavir was a drug approved by FDA for the treatment of chronic hepatitis B and became the first choice in the market. The wavelength selection results displayed that the signal-to-background ratio of the Raman spectrum with 1064 nm excitation wavelength was 14 times that of the commonly used 785 nm wavelength. The partial least squares (PLS) method was used to calibrate concentration models containing 0.1% to 1.0% w/w% ETV-H in calibration set samples. Different preprocessing methods were used to eliminate the background interference and extract more spectral information. Calibration samples were used to choose the best performing model. Then, all the calibration samples combined with the best performing models’ parameters successfully predicted the content of ETV-H in Baraclude tablets. Combining baseline processing and standard normal variate (SNV) with PLS, the model showed a good result with an R2 of 0.973, RMSEC of 0.05%, and RMSEP of 0.03% on the spectral region of 1350–1700 cm−1. The limit of detection of this model was 0.17%. These results showed that 1064 nm Raman spectroscopy technology could be an alternative analytical procedure to quantify low-content API in intact tablets.
