| 20140000461 | DEHUMIDIFYING TOWER FOR EXHAUST GAS | 01-02-2014 |
| 20140060333 | EXHAUST GAS SEPARATING TOWER AND EXHAUST GAS SEPARATING AND RECYCLING SYSTEM - The invention relates to an exhaust gas separating tower, comprising a washing section, a flash-distilling section above the washing section, and a liquid seal means between the flash flash-distilling section and the washing section. The washing section is configured for washing exhaust gas entering the tower with a cooling liquid to at least partially remove solid dust entrained in the exhaust gas, cool the exhaust gas, and condense at least a portion of moisture in the exhaust gas into liquid. The flash-distilling section is configured for flash-distilling the cooling liquid from the washing section to produce a cooled cooling liquid and a cooling liquid vapor. The liquid seal means is configured so that the cooling liquid produced by flash-distillation can enter the washing section through the liquid seal means while the flash-distilling section is in gas-phase isolation from the washing section, wherein a pressure in the flash-distilling section is lower than that in the washing section. | 03-06-2014 |
| 20150018548 | PROCESS FOR PRODUCING N-METHYL OR N,N-DIMETYL AMINES - A process for producing N-methyl or N,N-dimethyl amines, which comprises using amine compound, nitro-containing compound or nitrile compound as a starting material, carbon dioxide as a methylating agent and hydrogen gas as a reducing agent, and allowing them to react in a sealed reactor for 6 to 48 h in a reaction medium at a reaction temperature of 80 to 180 ° C. in the presence of a composite catalyst, so as to provide N-methyl or N,N-dimethyl amines. The process of the present invention is simple and under relative mild reaction conditions. By means of the process of the invention, the target products can be prepared at low cost with a high yield. The catalysts used have a high catalytic activity and can be separated from the reaction system simply and reused. Furthermore, the whole process of the present invention is environmental-friendly and facilitates the cycling use of carbon dioxide. | 01-15-2015 |

| 20140067461 | System and Method for Predicting Customer Attrition Using Dynamic User Interaction Data - A method, system and non-transitory computer-readable medium for predicting customer attrition are provided. The method can include executing code to load historical data relating to a customer into a database to create a customer history summary file. The method can include executing code to load daily data relating to the customer into a scoring engine. The method can include programmatically processing, via the scoring engine, at least one of the historical data and the daily data to generate an attrition score. The attrition score can indicate a predictive signal of attrition of the customer. | 03-06-2014 |
| 20140278490 | System and Method For Grouping Medical Codes For Clinical Predictive Analytics - A system and method for grouping medical codes for clinical predictive analytics is provided. The system for predictive modeling using medical information comprising a computer system for electronically receiving a data set of medical diagnosis codes and applying indicator variables to the data set, the computer system allowing a user to define a target and one or more thresholds conditions, a supervised variable grouping engine executed by the computer system, said engine calculating, for each indicator variable, a vector length and a distance to a target vector, wherein each indicator variable initially forms a group, automatically combining two groups of indicator variables that satisfy threshold conditions to create a combined group, recalculating the combined group's vector length, distance to the target vector, and distance to vectors of other remaining groups, iteratively combining and recalculating until there are no two groups that satisfy the threshold conditions or until a satisfactory number of groups is formed; and generating an altered data set of medical code groupings with reduced dimensionality and inputting the altered data set into a predictive model. | 09-18-2014 |
