Abstract
A handheld sensor system for the online measurement of hydrogen peroxide (H~2~O~2~) in aseptic sterilisation processes has been developed. It is based on a calorimetric‐type gas sensor that consists of a differential set‐up of two temperature sensors, of which one is catalytically activated and the second one is passivated and used as reference. The sensor principle relies in detecting a rise in temperature on the active sensor due to the exothermic reaction of H~2~O~2~ on the catalytic surface. To characterise the sensor system towards H~2~O~2~ sensitivity and other influencing factors, measurements have been carried out both at an experimental set‐up and a manufacturer's sterilisation machine. Physical sensor characterisation was done by means of the optical microscopy.
