    Comparison of Photocatalytic Performances of Solar-Driven Hybrid Catalysts for Hydrogen Energy Evolution From 1,8–diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7 (dbu) Solution
    (Elsevier, 2022) Orak, Ceren; Yüksel, Aslı
    Hydrogen is evolved from 1,8–Diazabicyclo [5.4.0]undec-7-ene (DBU) model solution which is a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic organic compound using different solar-driven hybrid photocatalysts. A characterization study is performed and the results of PL analysis show that the most promising solar-driven hybrid catalyst is graphene supported LaFeO3. Then, an experimental design matrix is built using the Box Behnken model to main and interaction effects of reaction parameters (pH, catalyst loading, and [H2O2]0). Based on the experimental results relatively higher hydrogen amounts are achieved using GLFO and this finding is supported by PL analysis. The highest hydrogen amount and DBU removal are determined as 3058.31 μmol/gcat and 90.3%, respectively. Statistical analysis shows that the square of catalyst loading is the only effective parameter over the produced hydrogen amount from the DBU model solution using GLFO and the R2 of model is 92.47%. Thus, hydrogen production and wastewater treatment could be achieved via photocatalytic oxidation as concomitant.

    Liquefaction of Waste Hazelnut Shell by Using Sub- and Supercritical Solvents as a Reaction Medium
    (Elsevier, 2019) Demirkaya, Emre; Dal, Orkan; Yüksel, Aslı
    Direct thermochemical biomass degradation to obtain bio-oil by using organic solvents is not a new process type, and it has some advantages over hydrothermal liquefaction technique. However, up to our best knowledge, in this study, hazelnut shell decomposition by using ethanol, acetone and their mixtures at sub/supercritical conditions was studied for the first time in literature. Experiments were carried out between 220-300 degrees C, at three different reaction times (30, 60 and 90 min) for five different solvent ratios. Highest solid conversion achieved at 300 degrees C by using pure ethanol was 64.2%, whereas highest bio-oil yield was found as 44.2% at 300 degrees C with 50/50 (EtOH/Ac: v/v). Ethanol and acetone showed different characteristics during the reactions and their effects on the conversion and bio-oil yield were discussed. Statistical analysis showed that time, temperature, ratio and synergy between temperature-time were affecting parameters for the conversion and bio-oil yield. (C) 2019 Elsevier B.V.
