_Levidian extracts carbon from the world's gas supplies to create hydrogen and graphene._ _Using our patented decarbonisation device -- LOOP - we create carbon negative products capable of driving sustainable economies. Levidian's mission will change the way things are done by applying the materials of the future to the greatest challenge of today - the fight against climate change. Our vision is a decarbonised world: powered by hydrogen and built on graphene.__Our current challenge is that it is not possible to analyse graphene flakes as they are produced in our reactors nor measure yields in real-time. Samples of graphene are laboriously tested in separate quality control labs, making the process slow as well as costly. It is also impossible to achieve bulk analysis of the graphene powder. Multiple samples must be analysed to determine the range of flake sizes present, and overall quality of the graphene produced.__The deployment of a network of LOOP devices at partner and client sites around the globe introduces further complications since graphene batches produced at these locations will be a considerable distance away from appropriate QC testing facilities, introducing significant delays to material analysis and validation of product quality.__Development and implementation of a rapid, in-line characterisation technique would be a valuable tool to accelerate graphene production scale-up and deliver consistent high-quality material to customers, with confidence and reliability. This solution is especially important now, as Levidian deploys its first fully autonomous, mobile graphene production system. Full automation and continuous quality control are essential in this case, as the entire process will be controlled remotely at a great distance from our QC labs._

_Levidian从世界天然气供应中提取碳，以制造氢气和石墨烯。_使用我们的专利脱碳设备- LOOP -我们创造能够推动可持续经济的负碳产品。Levidian的使命将通过将未来的材料应用于当今最大的挑战-应对气候变化来改变做事的方式。我们的愿景是一个脱碳的世界：由氢驱动，以石墨烯为基础。我们目前面临的挑战是，无法分析石墨烯片，因为它们是在我们的反应器中生产的，也无法实时测量产量。石墨烯样品在单独的质量控制实验室中进行了艰苦的测试，使得这个过程既缓慢又昂贵。也不可能实现石墨烯粉末的本体分析。必须对多个样品进行分析，以确定存在的薄片尺寸范围以及所生产的石墨烯的总体质量。在地球仪的合作伙伴和客户现场部署LOOP设备网络会带来进一步的复杂性，因为在这些地点生产的石墨烯批次将远离适当的QC测试设施，从而严重延迟材料分析和产品质量验证。开发和实施快速的在线表征技术将是加速石墨烯生产规模扩大并向客户提供一致的高质量材料的宝贵工具，并且具有信心和可靠性。这种解决方案现在尤为重要，因为Levidian部署了其首个完全自主的移动的石墨烯生产系统。在这种情况下，全自动化和持续的质量控制至关重要，因为整个过程将在我们的QC实验室很远的地方进行远程控制。
