What challenge does the article highlight about handling granular materials?
|
Hindered by complex material attributes. |
|
Table 2 shows NIR has been used to determine the physical attributes of powder and granule products.
|
The measurement of NIR may not be accurate enough to evaluate the characteristics of some powder types so it shows that it needs complex material attributes.

|
Particle size. |
|
From the introduction, it mentions particle size being one of they key CQAs of handling powdered and granule products.
|
The quality attributes should include the homogeneity, particle size and strength, flowability, etc. Particle Size Distribution is also important in continuous processes as it highly affects downstream process efficiency.

What does data fusion primarily help improve in PAT systems?
|
Increase performance and robustness of models. |
|
The article mentions that a robust MPC model is based on multi-sensors data fusion.
|
A robust soft-sensor can be used as a backup sensor if one is malfunctioned, and data fusion can detect faulty operation or optimization of complex processes.

What are the potential health risks associated with chemicals in PCPs as mentioned in the study?
|
Potential endocrine disruption |
|
Some UV filters have chemicals that are endocrine-disrupting properties and some chemicals in soaps, toothpastes, and detergents were noted too.
|
Homosalete, benzophenone, and octocrylene are suspected to have endocrine-disrupting properties and so does the preservatives triclosan and triclocarban.

Based on the study, which regulatory action is recommended due to the detection of harmful ingredients in PCPs despite their ban?
|
More stringent regulations on product labelling and testing |
|
The article emphasizes identifying chemicals in PCPs, so 3 works as a solution that supports the author’s idea.
|
By making regulations on product labeling and testing more stringent, it can help filter out the options of PCPs that use preservatives, fragrances, or UV filters.

According to the study, which substance is toxic to aquatic life and can affect fertility?
|
Alpha-isomethyl ionone |
|
They have found fragrances like alpha-isomethyl ionone present in over 25 PCPs in this investigation which they are toxic to aquatic life, but butylphenyl methylpropional should also be an answer because it affects fertility.
|
These fragrances can contaminate aquatic systems due to their high discharge through wastewater, and alpha-isomethyl ionone is toxic to aquatic life while butylphenyl methylpropional can affect fertility and harm a fetus during pregnancy.
