Besides the conventional chemical analysis techniques like titration and chromatography, near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy gains more and more importance. In this paper, the suitability of NIR spectroscopy for the process control in wet chemical processes is compared to alternative analysis methods like titration, ion chromatography, HPLC and surface tension measurements.en621697conference paper
