Abstract: The present disclosure relates generally to a gaming system, device, and method supportive of a self-evolving, AI-based playstyle models. A gaming system, device, and method are provided that identify data associated with a gameplay session at a gaming device, provide the data to a machine learning network; receive an output from the machine learning network in response to the machine learning network processing the data using a playstyle model, the output including an indication associated with modifying the playstyle model; and modify the playstyle model based on the indication. The data includes at least one of: a gameplay decision received during the gameplay session; and an emotional state of a user in association with the gameplay decision.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for the dehydration of one or more alcohols, which process comprises contacting one or more alcohols in the presence of one or more ethers with a supported heteropolyacid catalyst, characterised in that: (i) the heteropolyacid is tungstosilicic acid in the form of the free acid and supported on a silica support, (ii) said supported heteropolyacid catalyst has a heteropolyacid loading of from 0.5 to 0.9 mg/m2 of catalyst support surface area, and (iii) that said process comprises passing the one or more alcohols and one or more ethers in the vapour phase over a bed of the supported heteropolyacid catalyst at a temperature between 200° C. and 280° C.

Abstract: The invention relates to a process for the selective recovery of olefins from a mixture of gases by: a) bringing a gaseous mixture having olefins and hydrogen into contact with silver nitrate solution whereby the olefins are absorbed into the silver nitrate solution as a complex; b) separating the solution having complexed olefins from the non-absorbed gases; c) depressurising and heating the olefin complex solution from (b) so as to release the olefins from the complex and regenerate the silver nitrate solution; d) passing the regenerated silver nitrate solution through a bed containing silver oxide so as to maintain the pH value of the silver nitrate at between 3 and 6; and e) recycling the silver nitrate solution regenerated in (d) to step (a).

Abstract: Ethylene and propylene are recovered from a mixture thereof with other hydrocarbons by: (a) feeding the mixture to a separation zone with a top and a bottom; (b) feeding to the top above the mixture an aqueous complexing solution to form Cu(I) complexes of ethylene and propylene; (c) feeding below the mixture ethylene to strip propylene from the propylene complex; (d) removing from the bottom below the stripping gas a first liquid stream containing the Cu (I) ethylene complex; (e) recovering ethylene from the Cu(I) complex using reduced pressure and/or elevated temperature; (f) removing from the separation zone between the the gaseous mixture and the complexing solution, a second liquid stream comprising Cu (I) propylene complex; (g) recovering propylene from the Cu(I) complex and producing a liquid recycle stream comprising copper (I) salt; and (h) recycling the liquid recycle stream from step (g) to the separation zone.
