Information systems

Information systems

An information system can collect, store, process and communicate information through a set of resources (human, hardware, software, procedures). At the LBE we have developed several SI around the following axes:

SILEX-LBE

SILEX-LBE is the Information System for Experimentation of the UR LBE in Narbonne which aims to ensure the management of data for the online monitoring of degradation processes by dry or liquid means in anaerobic conditions, and process for the production of microalgae.

The problem is the large number of biological digestion research processes at the UR LBE followed by more and more sophisticated sensors which create a large amount of data with their measurement.

It is connected to ODIN (INRIA BIOCORE) acquisition systems for online data from sensors, automated or semi-automated analyzers. In 2012, it managed 8 databases of 40 bioreactors with volumes between 1 L and 25 m3. The SILEX-LBE information system is currently used for the acquisition and control of 5 pilot-scale bioprocesses, and 26 laboratory-scale bioprocesses at LBE. It has been operational since March 2009. In general, Silex is a data management software dedicated to bioprocesses. It makes it possible to collect, display and analyze data collected on bioprocesses, whether it is data measured by sensors, or observations and measurements made by operators. It presents the data via a web interface. It makes it possible to build the history of the process by bringing together sensor data, off-line measurements and maintenance operations, which facilitates the analysis of the data a posteriori. It is independent of a commercial acquisition platform, offers the flexibility needed to monitor innovative processes, and allows the traceability of experiments. The flexibility allows the system to be adapted to each new process. Symmetrically, it requires a significant configuration effort for each new deployment.

It was initiated by a European project Telemac (2003-2007) then it was able to evolve thanks to the European project CAFE (2008-2012) and the Mexican exchange project IRSES BITA (2009-2015). It continues with the European project NoAW (2016-2020) on the "on-line" publication (OpenData) of process data. We will include the semantic web part with the regional Occitanie / European project RIO (2020-2023).

ChemFlow

ChemFlow is an educational IS dedicated to chemometrics.

The objective is to enable a greater number of people to practice chemometrics within the framework of a ChemProject project comprising 3 axes: CheMoocs online courses, ChemFlow software and a ChemData database. The MOOC was opened on the FUN (France Université Numérique) platform for the first session from September 16 to November 25, 2016.

The problem is the very large number of spectrometers sold in research and industry because it is a simple, fast, cheap and reliable tool. Since the 1970s, France has been losing skills in chemometrics due to a lack of training in this field.

It is one of the results of an eponymous project funded first by Agropolis Fondation (2015-2016). This project is continuing thanks to funding from INRA permanent training in Montpellier. The second session of the MOOC was split into 2: CheMoocs Basic (from October 2 to December 3, 2017) and CheMoocs Advanced (from October 23 to December 3, 2017). In 2018, we are at the third session with a new division: unsupervised methods (October-November 2018) and supervised methods (February-March 2019). For the future, we have turned to corporate sponsorship via SupAgro Fondation and Agropolis Fondation.

For 3 years, the results have been the same on average: 1,500 MOOC subscribers via the FUN platform, 600 ChemFlow accounts. The server responded to approximately 45,000 requests. Details for accessing the software are at chemproject.org.

TyPol

TyPol is a typology of micropollutants to classify organic contaminants according to environmental properties and molecular characteristics.

The objective is to study the behavior of organic contaminants.

The problem is the very large number of molecules to be analyzed between 30 000 and 100 000 substances concerned by the environmental risk assessment (Pesticides, REACH).

We therefore created this tool to:

  • classify molecules into groups according to different properties (degradation, mobility, toxicology, ...)
  • and choose one molecule per group for further experiments

 This tool was able to evolve in the framework of different projects:

  • 2009-2011: innovative project of the department EA
  • 2011 - 2013: BIODECHLORD - AIP DEMICHLORD 2010: search for the biological signature of the degradation of chlordecone in the soils of the West Indies

ConceptDig

The Concept-Dig project funded by ADEME (2016-2019) and led by INRAe aimed to produce a tool to help design an agricultural digestate treatment chain for their agronomic use. This tool is based on a survey of 72 AAMF (Agriculteurs Méthaniseurs de France) methanisation sites and on experiments and monitoring of digestate treatment processes (phase separation, storage, composting and incubation on soil). From the input ration of the digester, a calculator makes it possible to predict the agronomic quality of the digestate (biochemical composition and amending and fertilizing agronomic value). From these data or digestate analysis results, other calculators make it possible to predict the quality of the digestate treated after phase separation and storage and to position the latter in relation to a typology carried out within the framework of Concept -Dig.
