Publication number: 20240141524Abstract: A process and apparatus for electrolyte solution production can be provided so that a modular production can be provided. The modular electrolyte production can be provided so that the production system is mobile for being used in multiple different plants at different geographical locations that are remote from each other. Embodiments can be configured so that electrolyte production is made for a plant specific application that provides an electrolyte solution having a pre-selected concentration of at least one electrolyte for use in at least one electrolyzer of the plant. The production can be mobile so it can be provided at different sites to make the same type of solutions or different solutions specific to the needs of the plants it may support. Some embodiments can utilize an electrolyte material handling device that also modular and mobile. Other embodiments can be configured to utilize an on-site electrolyte material handling device.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 31, 2022Publication date: May 2, 2024Applicant: Air Products and Chemicals, Inc.Inventors: GRAEME RICHARD WILSON, TIMOTHY EDWARD CONWAY, BARRY W.

Publication number: 20240127146Abstract: A method and system for providing a translation decision assistant. The document is processed to determine a value and document insights. The value is a quantification of the impact of the content to the business. The insights include language, personally identifiable information, and the domain of the work. These insights and content value are evaluated against prior job history to identify suitable resources for the translation job. A machine learning aggregation process extracts resources including people, machine translation engines, terminology, and workflows. The machine learning aggregation process from prior training selects resources from the various evaluations. A constraint filter processes the resources with external constraints including hard constraints and soft constraints. Hard constraints include translator certification, languages, and permissions. Soft constraints include quality, availability, costs, and service levels.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 12, 2022Publication date: April 18, 2024Inventors: Matthew William McKnight Hardy, Rares Ionut Vasilescu
