Article Citation - WoS: 15Citation - Scopus: 16Proposal of Novel Exergy-Based Sustainability Indices and Case Study for a Biomass Gasification Combine Cycle Integrated With Liquid Metal Magnetohydrodynamics(Elsevier, 2023) Canpolat Tosun, Demet; Açıkkalp, Emin; Çağlar, Başar; Altuntaş, Önder; Hepbaşlı, ArifExergy is considered a way to sustainability. Exergy-based analyses have been recently widely used for performance assessment and comparison purposes of energy systems from production to end-user while different sustainability related indices or indicators including exergetic concepts have been developed in the literature. In this regard, the present study proposed five different indices: (i) Exergetic Fuel Based Environmental Remediation Index (X), (ii) Exergetic Product Based Environmental Remediation Index (delta), (iii) Exergetic Fuel Based Total Environmental Remediation Index (beta), (iv) Exergetic Product Based Total Environmental Remediation Index (alpha), and (v) Improved Sustainability Index (ISI). These indices were applied to a novel Biomass-integrated Gasification Combine Cycle (BIGCC) integrated with Liquid Metal Magnetohydrodynamics (LMMHD). They allowed to perform a more complete environmental analysis by considering the exergetic cost of environmental remediation of the process. The average exergy efficiency values for the BIGCC, LMMHD and the overall system were determined as 0.491, 0.222 and 0.688 under daily ambient temperatures for a year and different air to fuel ratio (AFR) conditions, respectively. The average values for.X, beta, delta, alpha and ISI were 1.636, 2.389, 1.949, 2.848 and 0.513, respectively.Article Citation - WoS: 31Citation - Scopus: 33Energy and Exergy Analysis of a Pv-T Integrated Ethanol Pem Electrolyzer(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2021) Çağlar, Başar; Araz, Mustafa; Özcan, Hüseyin Günhan; Çalışan, Atalay; Hepbaşlı, ArifA photovoltaic-thermal (PV-T) integrated ethanol proton exchange membrane electrolyzer (PEME) was proposed as a low-energy consuming energy storage option for renewable-sourced electricity as well as a way for simultaneous chemical production in this study. Energy and exergy analyses were applied to each component of the system (e.g., pumps, heat exchanger, PV-T, PEME, and separation unit (SPU)) and the whole system to assess the system performance. The mathematical modelling of the whole system along with its main components except for the SPU was done using the Engineering Equation Solver (EES) software package while the SPU was modelled through the ASPEN Plus. A detailed modelling of the PEME was also included. The effects of the PV-T and PEME parameters on energy and exergy efficiencies of the system were evaluated while the improvement potentials and scale up options were discussed. Energy and exergy efficiencies of the proposed system at the optimum operation of the PEME and under average climatic conditions in the city of Izmir, Turkey were determined to be 27.8% and 3.1%, respectively. Energy and exergy efficiencies of the system were mainly regulated by the PV-T and PEME, whose energy and exergy efficiencies were 40.6%, 56.6% and 13.8%, 14.1%, respectively. Effective PEME parameters for energy and exergy efficiencies of the system were membrane conductivity, membrane thickness, anode catalyst and the operation temperature of the PEME. By changing the PV-T and PEME parameters and by scale-up, energy and exergy efficiencies of the system could be improved.Article Citation - WoS: 4Citation - Scopus: 5Electrooxidation of Glycerol on Monometallic and Bimetallic Catalysts-Containing Porous Carbon Cloth Electrodes in an Alkaline Medium(Electrochemical Society, Inc., 2021) Çağlar, Başar; El Hassan, Youssef; Basak, Oğuzhan; Hepbaşlı, ArifThe electrooxidation of glycerol was studied on monometallic (Pt/C, Co/C, Ni/C, Cu/C) and bimetallic catalysts (PtCo/C, PtNi/C, PtCu/C) - containing porous carbon cloth electrodes in an alkaline medium to gain insight about the potentials of electrodes for simultaneous hydrogen and chemical production. Physical and chemical properties of catalysts were characterized by using X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoemission spectroscopy, and transmission electron microscopy while electrochemical characteristics of electrodes were investigated by cyclic voltammetry, choronoamperometry, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. Bimetallic catalysts-containing electrodes showed higher glycerol electrooxidation activities and stabilities compared to monometallic catalysts-containing electrodes. The highest activity was observed on the PtCu/C-containing electrode due to its higher electrochemical active surface area and low kinetic and mass transfer resistance. It was also found that the presence of porous carbon cloth had a considerable effect on the glycerol electrooxidation activity.
