Sustainable silk dyeing in a silicon non-aqueous dyeing system with Reactive Red 195: salt-free and less alkali (2022)

Conventional dyeing processes usually generate a huge amount of wastewater, and in general, silk dyeing with reactive dyes using large amounts of salt and alkali has a great environmental impact. Herein, a green approach for a new dyeing system involving silk fabric dyed with reactive dyes in a silicon non-aqueous dyeing system without salt was reported. The optimal dyeing parameters of silk fabric dyed in this green dyeing system without alkali were 90°C for 75 minutes and with alkali were 70°

Economic Efficiency-Based Benefit–Cost Analysis: Comments on Circular A-4 (2025)

Abstract This paper is based on public comments I submitted in 2023 to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) on the draft revisions to its Circular A-4 guidance on “Regulatory Analysis.” It includes my comments as submitted and a “prologue” and “epilogue” written after OMB published the 2023 version of Circular A-4. The major issues discussed in my and the other public comments on the 2023 revisions have been long been, and will remain, central to the practice of regulatory BCA. My public
