    Cold Sintering as a Promising Isru Technique: a Case Study of Mars Regolith Simulant
    (Elsevier, 2023) Karacasulu, Levent; Karl, David; Gurlo, Aleksander; Ahmetoğlu, Çekdar Vakıf
    Mars regolith simulant (MGS-1) was densified for the first time via a cold sintering process (CSP) as a novel in-situ resource utilization (ISRU) concept. The technique comprises the utilization of NaOH solution as a liquid media during the densification of simulant powder with <100 μm particle size. In as short as 30 min, with the increase in the NaOH concentration (from 3 M to 10 M) and processing temperature (from 150 °C to 250 °C), the relative densities of the regolith compacts and the mechanical properties were enhanced. The artifacts produced with Mars regolith simulant powder at 250 °C using 10 M NaOH solution yielded a relative density of around 88% and compressive strength reaching ∼45 MPa.

    Effect of Fomes Fomentarius Cultivation Conditions on Its Adsorption Performance for Anionic and Cationic Dyes
    (American Chemical Society, 2022) Henning, Laura M.; Simon, Ulla; Abdullayev, Amanmyrat; Schmidt, Bertram; Pohl, Carsten; Nunez Guitar, Tamara; Ahmetoğlu, Çekdar Vakıf; Meyer, Vera; Bekheet, Maged F.; Gurlo, Aleksander
    Lab-cultivated mycelia of Fomes fomentarius (FF), grown on a solid lignocellulose medium (FF-SM) and a liquid glucose medium (FF-LM), and naturally grown fruiting bodies (FF-FB) were studied as biosorbents for the removal of organic dyes methylene blue and Congo red (CR). Both the chemical and microstructural differences were revealed using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, zeta potential analysis, and scanning electron microscopy, illuminating the superiority of FF-LM and FF-SM over FF-FB in dye adsorption. The adsorption process of CR on FF-LM and FF-SM is best described by the Redlich-Peterson model with β constants close to 1, that is, approaching the monolayer Langmuir model, which reach maximum adsorption capacities of 48.8 and 13.4 mg g-1, respectively, in neutral solutions. Adsorption kinetics follow the pseudo-second-order model where chemisorption is the rate-controlling step. While the desorption efficiencies were low, adsorption performances were preserved and even enhanced under simulated dye effluent conditions. The results suggest that F. fomentarius can be considered an attractive biosorbent in industrial wastewater treatment and that its cultivation conditions can be specifically tailored to tune its cell wall composition and adsorption performance.
