To increase productivity and reduce production downtime, continuous monitoring of the purity of process media is essential. Furthermore, the drinking and wastewater analysis represents a future broad market for the device according to the invention. Due to the ever-decreasing permissible pollutant levels in wastewater, described in the EU water protection guidelines, it is necessary in many areas to detect minimal contamination.

  • the known device has a microchannel designed as a liquid optical waveguide on a substrate in the form of a silicon wafer. Through this microchannel a liquid to be examined is flowed through. Furthermore, light from a light source is coupled into the microchannel and light emerging from the microchannel is analyzed by a detector. Different methods of analysis are used, for example spectroscopic methods based on absorption, transmission, fluorescence and Raman scattering. Detection of substances in liquids in the sub-ppb range is possible with the known device.
