    Aqueous Interactions of Zeolitic Material in Acidic and Basic Solutions
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2010) Polatoğlu, İlker; Çakıcıoğlu Özkan, Seher Fehime; Özkan, Seher Fehime; 03.02. Department of Chemical Engineering; 03. Faculty of Engineering; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology
    Aqueous interactions of natural zeolitic material in as-received and modified forms were studied. The zeolitic materials was interacted with acidic (hydrochloric acid, lactic acid, acetic acid) and basic (sodium hydroxide) solutions. Ion exchange, adsorption, complex formation, precipitation and cation hydrolysis were possible interaction mechanisms affected by the amount and cation content of zeolite and pH. The dominant mechanisms seemed to be ion exchange and adsorption in HCl solution when zeolite was used in the as-received form, but dissociation of outer-sphere complexes when modified zeolite was used. In lactic acid, acetic acid as well as the basic solution, cation hydrolysis and complex formation were additional mechanism in the interactions. © 2010 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

    Kinetics of Proton Transfer in the Zeolitic Tuff
    (Central European Science Journals, 2009) Çakıcıoğlu Özkan, Seher Fehime; Özkan, Seher Fehime; Özkan, Seher Fehime; 03.02. Department of Chemical Engineering; 03. Faculty of Engineering; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology
    The kinetics of a proton transfer into dilute acid solutions containing natural zeolitic tuff was studied by following the pH evolution of the liquid phase. Four different solutions with tuff contents of 9, 3, 1 and 0.5 (% wt) and three different particle size fractions (≤ 2000 μm) were studied. The proton concentration of the solution was decreased by increasing the zeolite amount and decreasing the particle size fraction. The proton transfer reaction was analyzed with chemical reactions and diffusion model equations. Analysis shows that the adsorption and/or ion exchange are possible mechanisms and are expressed by a second order reaction model.

    Co2 Adsorption and Dehydration Behavior of Linax, Knax, Canax and Cenax Zeolites
    (Springer Verlag, 2008) Erten, Yasemin; Güneş Yerkesikli, Alev; Özkan, Seher Fehime; Çakıcıoğlu Özkan, Seher Fehime; 03.02. Department of Chemical Engineering; 03. Faculty of Engineering; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology
    In this study, NaX synthetic zeolite was modified by following the conventional cation exchange method at 70°C. 82, 81, 79 and 48% of sodium were exchanged with Li+, K+, Ca2+ and Ce3 +, respectively. Thermal analysis data obtained by TG/DSC was used to evaluate the dehydration behavior of the zeolites. The strongest interaction with water and the highest dehydration enthalpy (ΔH) value were found for Li-exchanged form and compared with the other forms. The temperature required for complete dehydration increased with decreasing cation size (cation size: K+>Ce3+>Ca2+>Na+>Li +). CO2 adsorption at 5 and 25°C was also studied and the virial model equation was used to analyze the experimental data to calculate the Henry's law constant, K o and isosteric heat of adsorption at zero loading Q st. K o values decreased with increasing temperature and the highest Qst was obtained for K rich zeolite. It was observed that both dehydration and CO2 adsorption properties are related to cation introduced into zeolite structure.

    Diffusion Mechanism of Water Vapour in a Zeolitic Tuff Rich in Clinoptilolite
    (Springer Verlag, 2008) Çakıcıoğlu Özkan, Seher Fehime; Ülkü, Semra; Ülkü, Semra; Özkan, Seher Fehime; 03.02. Department of Chemical Engineering; 03. Faculty of Engineering; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology
    The adsorption kinetics of H2O in a clinoptilolite rich zeolitic tuff was experimentally investigated at 18°C. In the identification of the diffusion mechanism the isothermal adsorption model equation was used. It was found out that the intraparticle mass transfer becomes more dominant over the heat transfer with increase in particle size and the adsorptive dose pressure. Although initially intraparticle mass transfer was the controlling resistance later external heat transfer also contributes to the transfer mechanism.

    Isomerization of Alpha-Pinene Over Acid Treated Natural Zeolite
    (Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2005) Ünveren, Ercan; Özkan, Seher Fehime; Çakıcıoğlu Özkan, Fehime; 03.02. Department of Chemical Engineering; 03. Faculty of Engineering; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology
    In this study, isomerization of α-pinene was studied over several acid-treated natural zeolite catalysts rich in clinoptilolite. Zeolite samples were contacted with HCl at different concentrations at 30°'C or at 60°C for 3 and 24 hours and tested in isomerization reaction of alpha-pinene. The catalysts prepared were characterized by XRD, nitrogen adsorption, and acidity studies. Acidity strength and the distribution of Lewis and Brönsted acid sites of the catalysts were determined, and their catalytic activities in α-pinene isomerization and selectivities to main reaction products, camphene and limonene, were investigated. Acid treatment improved the selectivity of catalyst samples to camphene, decreasing the selectivity to limonene, probably forcing limonene to secondary reactions at high conversions. The kinetics of α-pinene consumption was described by first-order kinetics. Two kinetic models were tested for the reaction mechanism and one model was found to give a good correlation between the theoretical and experimental data. In the models, the key intermediate was the pinylcarbonium ion, which was formed irreversibly from α-pinene. Number and distribution of Lewis and Brönsted acid sites affect the formation of bicyclic and monocyclic products.

    Investigation of the Permeability of Pure Gases in Sol-Gel Derived Al 2o 3 Membrane
    (Trans Tech Publications, 2004) Topuz, Berna; Çiftçioğlu, Muhsin; Çiftçioğlu, Muhsin; Özkan, Seher Fehime; 03.02. Department of Chemical Engineering; 03. Faculty of Engineering; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology
    The preparation, characterization and pure gas permeation of sol-gel derived alumina membranes were investigated in this work. The effects of acid concentration/type and water content on the particle size in the sols and pore size distributions of the unsupported membrane were investigated by N 2 adsorption/desorption isotherms and Dynamic Light Scattering. Increasing the H +/Al 3+ mole ratio from 0.1 to 0.25 caused the hydrodynamic sol particle size and BJH pore size to decrease from 65 to 30 nm and 3.6 to 2.9 nm, respectively. The pore size increased from 2.8 nm to 3 nm upon increasing the calcination temperature from 500 to 600°C. Unsupported membranes were heat treated in the 200 to 1200 °C range for the characterization of the phase structure. Pinhole and crack free alumina membranes about 3 μm (2-layer) in thickness was observed from the SEM pictures with insignificant infiltration. The CO 2 permeability through the double layer γ-Al 2O 3 membrane calcined at 600 °C was 2.25*10 -7 mol/m 2.s.Pa, and had a slight pressure dependence indicating Knudsen Diffusion and Laminar Flow being the effective transport mechanisms. Upon the calcination of a similar 2-layer alumina membrane at 500°C, the CO 2 permeability decreased to 1.51 *10 -8 mol/m 2.s.Pa. without pressure dependence.

    Dynamics of Water Vapor Adsorption on Humidity-Indicating Silica Gel
    (Elsevier Ltd., 1998) Balköse, Devrim; Ulutan, Sevgi; Ülkü, Semra; Özkan, Seher Fehime; Balköse, Devrim; 03.02. Department of Chemical Engineering; 03. Faculty of Engineering; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology
    Well-defined CoCl2-containing silica gels were prepared by impregnation of the aqueous solution of the salt to silica hydrogel, drying and aging methods. Silica gels having 392-437 m2 g-1 surface area and 0.21-0.37 cm3 g-1 pore volume and having an average particle size of 3 mm were obtained. Aging in CoCl2 solutions decreased the surface area of silica gels from 540 cm2 g-1 to 392-430 m2 g-1 and pore volume from 0.27 to 0.21-0.23 cm3 g-1 for CoCl2 concentration smaller than 0.28 mol dm-3 in silica gel. Adsorbed water desorbed from the gels absorbing 1917-2555 J g-1 energy as determined by differential scanning calorimetry. The CoCl2-containing gels were successfully used in dynamic column experiments, with linear relation between velocities of inlet air and movement of blue to pink boundary. The colour change also makes the detection of the defects in column filling which causes air channelling

    Flexible Poly(vinyl Chloride)-Zeolite Composites for Dye Adsorption From Aqueous Solutions
    (Taylor and Francis Ltd., 1996) Balköse, Devrim; Ulutan, Sevgi; Balköse, Devrim; Ülkü, Semra; Özkan, Seher Fehime; Ülkü, Semra; 03.02. Department of Chemical Engineering; 03. Faculty of Engineering; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology
    Flexible poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) composites having natural zeolite clinoptillolite were prepared by plastisol-plastigel technology. Adsoption of methylene blue on each raw material and on composites was studied both from an equilibrium and a rate approach. It was observed that the adsorption capacity of zeolite decreased when it was embedded in composites. The equilibrium uptake of methylene blue increased with an increasing zeolite fraction in composites. Methylene blue was adsorbed from a 0.02 g·cm-3 aqueous solution slowly, but was nearly adsorbed completely with a composite having a 0.3 volume fraction of zeolite. The effective diffusion coefficient of methylene blue in composites was of the order of 10-13 m2·s-1 and decreased with increasing filler fraction.
