Abstract: Presented herein are methods and systems for generating and executing applications that provide insights to a model's operation without requiring the user to have knowledge of coding, computer programming, or artificial intelligence machine-learning methodologies. An exemplary method includes deploying a model using input data to generate a predicted dataset; presenting indications for a plurality of applications associated with the deployed model including an configured to generate new scenarios and another application configured to optimize at least one feature; presenting a plurality of features analyzed by the model; and in response to receiving a selection of a feature of the plurality of features and a new value for the feature, executing the first application to generate a second predicted dataset using the new value.

Abstract: Matrix-dyed textiles of cellulose acetate, cellulose triacetate, silk, wool, flax, nylon, acrylic, polyethylene terephthalate, cotton, and rayon are stripped of their dyes in a dye stripping system comprising a reducing agent in an aqueous bath produced by the reaction of a bisulfite with about 0.35% or less of a borohydride by weight of the textile. The borohydride may be added to an aqueous bath already containing the bisulfite and the textile or the borohydride and bisulfite may be mixed in an add tank and the mixture added to the aqueous bath. Chelating agents, sequestering agents, fire retardants, and odor scavengers are not needed. Reclaimed textiles having superior receptivity of a new dye are provided.

Abstract: An improved high yield apparatus for producing sodium hydrosulfite is disclosed wherein sodium borohydride, sulfur dioxide, sodium hydroxide and sodium bisulfite are reacted. Improved results are obtained according to the invention by a novel feed system that requires the introduction of a first reaction mixture comprising sodium borohydride, sodium hydroxide and water (i.e., BOROL) into a process flow stream upstream from, i.e. prior to, the introduction of a second reaction comprising either (1) water and sulfur dioxide (first embodiment) or (2) sodium bisulfite and sulfur dioxide (second embodiment).The best results are realized by combining the just described novel feed arrangement with a system where intimate mixing of both the first reaction mixture and the seocnd reaction mixture and the flow stream.

Abstract: An improved high yield process and apparatus for producing sodium hydrosulfite by reacting sodium borohydride, sulfur dioxide, sodium hydroxide, and sodium bisulfite is provided. The improved result of the invention is obtained by a feed system that requires the introduction of a first mixture comprising sodium borohydride, sodium hydroxide, and water into a flow stream prior to the introduction of a second mixture comprising water and sulfur dioxide. The improved result can be further enhanced by techniques of intimately mixing the first mixture and the flow stream as well as intimate mixing the second mixture and the flow stream.
