Industrial Biostatistics Network (IBION) www.ibion.no
Efficient use of raw materials in industry
The research project IBION (Industrial Biostatistics Network) is a consortium with partners from
five Norwegian bio-processing companies (Tine, Ewos, Stabburet, Mills, Borregaard)
the software and consulting company Prediktor and
three research institutes:-Department of mathematics, Agricultural University of Norway, AUN, Ås -Matforsk, Norwegian Food Research Institute, Ås-CPAC, University of Washington, Seattle.
The project is financed by the industrial partners and by The Research Council of Norway (NFR).
It was started July 1, 2001 and will continue until July 1, 2005. The total budget for the project is about 40 million NOK.
![Page 4: Efficient handling of raw material variation in industry Tormod Naes Ingunn Berget (post-doc) Kjetil Joergensen (Ph.D. student)](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062304/56649d975503460f94a80f4a/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Handling raw material variationWhy important?
• Raw materials vary in quality
• Raw material costs represent a large portion of the total costs
• Customers require goodh and stable quality
![Page 5: Efficient handling of raw material variation in industry Tormod Naes Ingunn Berget (post-doc) Kjetil Joergensen (Ph.D. student)](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062304/56649d975503460f94a80f4a/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Handling raw material variation
• Adjust processes to account for unwanted raw material variation– Stable, good quality– avoid waste
• Utilise potential in raw material– Best raw materials for best product– Good combinations– Quality and cost
![Page 6: Efficient handling of raw material variation in industry Tormod Naes Ingunn Berget (post-doc) Kjetil Joergensen (Ph.D. student)](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062304/56649d975503460f94a80f4a/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
In all these cases
We would like to have a model or a strategy that can be used to tell us what to do when a
batch of raw material is received and characterised
“process=f(raw materials, target values of output)”
![Page 7: Efficient handling of raw material variation in industry Tormod Naes Ingunn Berget (post-doc) Kjetil Joergensen (Ph.D. student)](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062304/56649d975503460f94a80f4a/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Important
• All serious industries have strategies and techniques for handling raw material variation (including the partners)– Expert knowledge, practical experience
• We help them improving strategies – Using statistical/chemometric methods
![Page 8: Efficient handling of raw material variation in industry Tormod Naes Ingunn Berget (post-doc) Kjetil Joergensen (Ph.D. student)](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062304/56649d975503460f94a80f4a/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Important criteria
• Methods should be easy to use and understand
• Results should be easy to interpret
• Methods should stimulate to user interaction
• Methods should be flexible/versatile/robust
• Realistic validation of results

Collaboration
• Typical area for collaboration
– raw material knowledge– process knowledge– spectroscopy – statistics
• Without close collaboration, no results!

Different approaches
• Robustness with respect to raw material variation
• Continuous updating of process settings
• Sorting of raw materials (define classes with corresponding optimal processing and with good properties in each)
• Combinations
• Useful for different situations, depending on local conditions
![Page 15: Efficient handling of raw material variation in industry Tormod Naes Ingunn Berget (post-doc) Kjetil Joergensen (Ph.D. student)](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062304/56649d975503460f94a80f4a/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Two pieces of work done by studentsone related to modelling
one related to use of models
• Design and analysis strategy for situations with uncontrolled raw material variation
– Jorgensen and Næs, (2004). J. Chem. (in press)
• Optimal sorting of raw materials based on the predicted end product quality.
– Berget and Næs (2002). Qual. Eng.
• Batch oriented
![Page 16: Efficient handling of raw material variation in industry Tormod Naes Ingunn Berget (post-doc) Kjetil Joergensen (Ph.D. student)](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062304/56649d975503460f94a80f4a/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
A possible strategy for model buildingK. Jorgensen and T. Næs. (2004). J. Chem. (in press)
Proposal for a strategy and a case study, cheese, Dry matter • End product quality = F(raw materials, process settings)
– In practice often used inverted
• Problems
– Raw materials are natural products, can not be controlled/designed
• How can we set up an experimental design?
– Raw material characterisation
• Time consuming
• Sometimes one does not know what to measure
![Page 17: Efficient handling of raw material variation in industry Tormod Naes Ingunn Berget (post-doc) Kjetil Joergensen (Ph.D. student)](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062304/56649d975503460f94a80f4a/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Possible solution
• Design– Block design with raw materials as blocks
• Measurements– Spectroscopy, use principal components of
spectra directly in modelend product quality=F(PC’s, process)
![Page 18: Efficient handling of raw material variation in industry Tormod Naes Ingunn Berget (post-doc) Kjetil Joergensen (Ph.D. student)](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062304/56649d975503460f94a80f4a/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Experiment
• 4 2-level factors + 3 2-level block factors – 7 factors in total– factorial design 24 in 8 blocks

PLS instead of PCA
• Preliminary investigations based on simulations and real data indicate
– PLS on the residuals (iteratively) gives better interpretability of spectral information (fewer components)
![Page 27: Efficient handling of raw material variation in industry Tormod Naes Ingunn Berget (post-doc) Kjetil Joergensen (Ph.D. student)](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062304/56649d975503460f94a80f4a/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Conclusions• Block designs, with raw materials as blocks, combined with rapid characterisation of the raw
materials: useful tool for model building.– (verified also in other experiments)
• Using PC’s of spectra is flexible and does not need decisions about which properties to measure. Interpretation is important
• First step towards a good model– Possible to interpret– Model is verified
• Must may extended or fine-tuned by extra experiments to incorporate conlinearities etc.
• Best possible combination of process variables and blocks? Research!
• Combinations of collinear spectral data and factors. Research going on!
![Page 28: Efficient handling of raw material variation in industry Tormod Naes Ingunn Berget (post-doc) Kjetil Joergensen (Ph.D. student)](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062304/56649d975503460f94a80f4a/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Utilising equations for process improvements
• Some ideas, possibilities, feasibility
– not finished industrial implementations
• General goal: adjust process after measurement of raw material quality
– Optimal for each batch
– Optimal, but robust with respect to certain types of noise
– A simpler strategy: Identify a small number of homogeneous raw material classes and their corresponding optimal process settings
• robust with respect to measurement error of raw material measurements
• simple in use (if difficult to change process)
• well suited for situations where it is possible to sort. – Receive raw materials, sort, store in bins and process from same bin
![Page 29: Efficient handling of raw material variation in industry Tormod Naes Ingunn Berget (post-doc) Kjetil Joergensen (Ph.D. student)](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062304/56649d975503460f94a80f4a/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Goal: Reduce the effect of variable raw material quality on end product quality
Procedure:
Identify optimal classes with corresponding processing conditions,cluster analysis.
After identification: measure raw material and put in best class (with known
processing conditions).

… but what about bread shape?
Volume = 354 ml
Form ratio = 0.64 (height/width)
Volume = 352 ml
Form ratio = 0.52 (height/width)

Sorting of raw materials with focus on multiple end-product properties
• Product quality is often defined by several product characteristics
• Different responses have different optima
– Example: volume and form ratio
– longer proofing times give larger, but flatter breads

Suggested approaches• Optimise one response under constraints on the
others– Convergence problems in investigated example
• Weighted squared loss– Use weights to prioritise responses
• Desirability functions– Functions of predicted product quality

Assessing robustness
• Various approaches exist– Box et al, optimisation of polynomials models
– Bootstrapping (parametric) for assessing robustness
• Estimate model.
• Simulate data from the model
• Repeat optimisations.
• Visualise the optimal points

• Results
– Memberships and optimal process settings are variable when regression coefficients are uncertain.
– Misclassification rate due to variable membership values is small.
– Average error in predicted response due to variable optimal process settings small compared to the prediction error
• Indicate that prediction sorting is rather robust to random error in the regression coefficients.

Conclusions• Fuzzy clustering combined with suitable distance measure can be
used for sorting
• Robust splitting and reasonably robust process settings
• Clear improvements over non-sorting
• Method can be extended to multivariate data and can be penalised
• Bootstrap can be used for evaluating robustness
