Digital Twin GUI for Supervising Chemical Separation Processes
A real-time and playback interface for managing solvent extraction experiments using contactors
The Challenge
Chemical separation processes involving solvent extraction often rely on analog workflows or LabVIEW-based systems to monitor real-time conditions. These traditional setups limit visibility into system behavior over time and can be cumbersome for reviewing historical experiments. As a result, chemists and process supervisors may encounter difficulties in analyzing prior runs, optimizing procedures, or training new personnel using past data.
How It Works
This software provides a graphical interface built with React, TypeScript, Vite, and Material UI, enabling users to visualize and supervise solvent extraction processes. Designed to interface with experimental setups using contactors, the GUI displays real-time system data and supports playback functionality for reviewing historical data sets.
Unlike LabVIEW-centric interfaces, this tool offers a simplified, browser-based platform that presents data visually and supports time-based exploration of past runs. Users can observe variable trends, monitor process stages, and examine system behavior in a digital environment during and after an experiment.
Key Advantages
• Offers real-time data visualization during solvent extraction processes.
• Enables replay of previous experiment data to support analysis and review.
• Provides a browser-based alternative to LabVIEW interfaces.
• Supports process supervision without requiring specialized software environments.
• Built using widely adopted technologies: React, TypeScript, Vite, and Material UI.
Market Applications
• Chemical Laboratories: Supervise solvent extraction runs and analyze past data to refine methods.
• Process Development Facilities: Use digital playback tools to study contactor-based separation processes.
• Training Environments: Replay real experiment data to support instruction and skill development.
• Academic Research Settings: Incorporate the GUI in experimental workflows for reproducible data review.
