About us
Complementary Enabling Best-in-Class PATs in a Single Probe: 14-Bit HDR Microscopy: High contrast, high resolution, & high dynamic range in-process microscopy enables a next generation understanding of single & multiple dispersed phase particle systems at the highest solids, smallest particle sizes, and widest range of particle composition types. Image Analysis Derived CLD (Chord Length Distribution): Blaze Image Derived Chord Length Distributions (ID-CLD) provide data and trends familiar to thousands of process development experts but with substantially improved linearity, precision, accuracy and repeatability over changing dispersed phase properties (solids concentration/size/shape/surface/translucent-opacity). These improvements lead to better and faster process understanding and hence shorter development times and often better and more robust processes. 14-Bit HDR Turbidity: Extends the measurable range between the minimum detectable value of back-scattered light (no to low dispersed phase i.e. earlier cloud point detection vs traditional tools) to the largest amount of back-scattered light (highest dispersed phase concentration with the smallest particle sizes -- hence the most scattering surface area -- i.e. detecting attrition or size reduction at the highest solids loading and smallest sizes). Particle Focused Raman: Improves signal from suspended solids. Depending on the conditions, the Blaze can substantially increase the solids signal captured dynamically in process. This enables users to better identify small volumes and/or track small changes in polymorphs, solvates, hydrates, & particulate impurities; as well as better differentiate particle types in multiple component systems. Blaze Raman pairs with most spectrometers. OPC Bi-directional Communication: Blaze uses OPC to transfer statistics between the Blaze and Process Control Software.

Blaze Generation 3 is here! G3 is a significant advancement for all Blaze systems. Also... Announcing the BlazeBasicG3 (image below): Designed with Process Chemists in mind, a single probe with Black and White Microscopy, Polarization Microscopy, Size & Count by CLD, and HDR Turbidity standard! Priced to make it attainable! Email at info@blazemetrics.com for a quote or to arrange a demo, the price will likely surprise you 😊 Works with Clear, White, to Black slurries including Yellow and Red. Spectroscopy (Raman) requires the new BlazePlatformG3, all the above with even better Particle Focused (disperse phase enhanced) Raman than Gen 2, and of course from lab to ATEX/Ex Plant!

Selective aggregation Jackquline and Blaze at work https://lnkd.in/eJ-4KZf3
Excited to share our latest publication in Minerals Engineering Journal (Open Access): "Selective aggregation of hematite from quartz using charged polyacrylamides: In-situ sizing". https://lnkd.in/gWA4vbBz Our research delves into how polymer properties and dispersant influence the selective aggregation of hematite, particularly under conditions relevant to froth flotation. We utilised inexpensive, commercially available polymers and state-of-the-art in-situ imaging and sizing techniques to measure aggregate sizes. Grateful for the invaluable guidance and support from my coauthors, Prof. George Franks and Dr. Casey Thomas. Special thanks to the ARC Centre of Excellence for Enabling Eco-Efficient Beneficiation of Minerals (COEMinerals) and the Department of Chemical Engineering, University of Melbourne. #COEMinerals #SelectiveAggregation #flocculation #flotation #mineralprocessing

Model-based optimization & control of pharmaceutical processes, A review article from MIT Prof Braatz group. BMS presented a digital twin built in conjunction with Applied Materials utilizing BlazePAT.com for fluid bed dryer control at the recent APACT meeting. Will be interesting to see how far that is along compared to the work below! Thank you for posting Francesco! https://lnkd.in/eEyZ5ed2
Our review article on model-based optimization and control of pharmaceutical processes has just been published! In this concise 8-page manuscript, we discuss major advances from the past five years and highlight future directions and challenges. Having started my PhD five years ago, I’ve been fortunate to witness and contribute to this field's remarkable progress, thanks to brilliant researchers worldwide. Looking ahead, we need to address challenges such as manufacturing novel biotherapeutics and developing technologies to streamline industrial implementation, ensuring to keep pace with the surging demand of traditional and novel drugs. It was a great experience co-authoring this article with Prof. Richard D. Braatz, an early pioneer in the field, and my colleagues Pavan Inguva and Prakitr Srisuma. We hope you enjoy the read and look forward to your feedback! Link to the paper: https://lnkd.in/evWGu8rJ

Just Suspended (as well as dispersion endpoint) https://lnkd.in/egnfUnHc
Effective solid suspension in mixing tanks is vital for consistent product quality and operational efficiency. By focusing on Just Suspension Speed (Njs), proper impeller design, tank geometry, and monitoring systems, industries can maintain optimal suspension. Following these best practices helps minimize energy use, reduce equipment wear, and ensure uniform mixing. https://lnkd.in/gZjyhCMP #MixingTanks #SolidSuspension #IndustrialMixing #ChemicalProcessing #JustSuspensionSpeed #Njs #ImpellerDesign #TankDesign #MixingEquipment #EnergyEfficiency #SedimentationPrevention #BestPractices #IndustrialOperations #ProductQuality #PharmaceuticalMixing #FoodProcessing #EquipmentMaintenance #UniformMixing #tutorial #CFD #processengineer #mechanicalengineering #pharmaceutical
