A high solids content n-butyl acrylate/methyl methacrylate emulsion copolymerization process carried out under starved semi-batch conditions was for the first time monitored on-line by means of Fourier transform (FT)-Raman spectroscopy. Partial least squares regression was employed to build calibration models that allowed relating the spectra with solids content (overall conversion), free amounts of both n-butyl acrylate (n-BA) and methyl methacrylate (MMA), and cumulative copolymer composition. In spite of the heterogeneous nature of the polymerization, the similarities of the spectra for MMA, n-BA, and for the copolymer, and the low monomer concentrations in the reactor, the FT-Raman spectroscopy has been shown to be a suitable noninvasive sensor to accurately monitor the process. Therefore, it is well suited for on-line control of all-acrylic polymerization systems.

Chromatography is widely used in biotherapeutics manufacturing, and the corresponding underlying mechanisms are well understood. To enable process control and automation, spectroscopic techniques are very convenient as on-line sensors, but their application is often limited by their sensitivity. In this work, we investigate the implementation of Raman spectroscopy to monitor monoclonal antibody (mAb) breakthrough (BT) curves in chromatographic operations with a low titer harvest. A state estimation procedure is developed by combining information coming from a lumped kinetic model (LKM) and a Raman analyzer in the frame of an extended Kalman filter approach (EKF). A comparison with suitable experimental data shows that this approach allows for the obtainment of reliable estimates of antibody concentrations with reduced noise and increased robustness.
