Book Part Heterogeneous Catalysis Fromthe Perspective of Surface Science(Wiley, 2016) Cihanoğlu, A.; Quiñones-Murillo, D.H.; Payer, G.This chapter discusses the historical development of surface chemistry. During the period 1860 – 1912, the surface chemistry of catalysis made progress as a result of many experimental observations of scientists, such as in oxidation of hydrogen chloride, SO2oxidation to SO3, the reaction of methane with steam to form CO and H2, the oxidation of ammonia, ethylene hydrogenation, and the synthesis of ammonia. Catalytic technology has to be complemented by advancements in the chemical industry. The development of catalytic technology is closely related not only to the technological advances in the chemical industry, but also to significant political concerns. Most of the particulate materials used as heterogeneous catalysts present some limitations such as low stability, formation of agglomerates, and little selectivity, these conditions are likely to be due to weak surface conditions rather than bulk deficiencies themselves; surface optimization can improve the performance in materials that already have the necessary bulk properties. © 2017 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

The catalytically active state and reaction mechanism for the direct synthesis of acetonitrile from syngas/ammonia mixtures are studied on an unsupported Mo catalyst from complementary experimental and computational approaches. Temperature resolved X-ray diffraction and X-ray photoemission spectroscopy verify that an oxidic MoO(3 )catalyst precursor undergoes in situ (near-surface) nitridation, upon exposure to reaction conditions at 723 K, rendering Mo2N the actual working catalyst. Density Functional Theory mechanistic investigations on a gamma- Mo 2 N(100) model surface point to a hydrogen-assisted CO dissociation on the nitride surface. Moreover, surface oxygen, evolved from CO dissociation, is predicted to play a central role as hydrogen acceptor, to enable the dehydrogenative NH3 dissociation. Direct condensation of CH and N adspecies proceeds with a low energy barrier of 33 kJ mol(-1), which makes C-N coupling preferred over full hydrogenation of CHx species, in agreement with the experimental modest selectivity to methane (ca. 10 %). Both experimental and computational results indicate that HCN is a major intermediate product along the reaction pathway to acetonitrile. No energetically feasible associative reaction pathways could be identified for C-C coupling from HCN. The dissociation of the latter intermediate product is predicted to precede the reaction of CN adspecies to CHx. Similarly to NH3 dissociation, dehydrogenative HCN activation on the Mo2N 2 N surface is predicted to be facilitated through hydrogen abstraction by surface oxygen species, yet subjected to a comparatively higher energy barrier (>120 kJ mol(-1)), therefore likely to control the overall kinetics. These findings suggest that the enhancement of HCN dissociation is a central design objective towards Mo2N-based 2 N-based catalysts with advanced performance.Article Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 4Enhancing Biogas Production From Chicken Manure Through Vacuum Stripping of Digestate(Springer Heidelberg, 2023) Sengur, Ozlem; Akgul, Deniz; Bayrakdar, Alper; Calli, BarisThe vacuum stripping's combined ammonia removal and disintegration effect on chicken manure digestate was evaluated for the first time at different pH values (8.5, 9.5, and 10.5) and temperatures (30, 50, and 70 degrees C). In this way, the potential increase in biogas production by recirculating the vacuum-stripped digestate to the anaerobic digester was determined. Experimental results showed that increasing pH and temperature significantly increase TAN removal, but pH is more effective. A significant portion of the ammonia was removed in the first 30 min. Therefore, a second set of stripping tests was performed for 30 min and at 70 degrees C and pH 10.5. After 30-min tests, a biomethane potential (BMP) assay was performed using the vacuum-stripped digestate to determine how vacuum stripping affects biomethane production. Despite having the lowest disintegration efficiency, the highest biomethane potential (56.2 +/- 29.7 mL CH4/gVS) was obtained with the digestate, which was subjected to vacuum stripping at 70 celcius without pH adjustment, and 48.7% more methane was produced than the control set. The lower residual biomethane potential in vacuum-stripped digestate at pH 9.5 and 10.5 was attributed to Na+ inhibition resulting from high NaOH consumption for pH adjustment.Article Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 3Amperometric Detection of Nh3 by Aromatic Sam-Modified Graphene(IEEE, 2023) Yağmurcukardeş, Nesli; Bayram, Abdullah; Aydın, Hasan; Can, Mustafa; Demiç, Şerafettin; Açıkbaş, Yaşar; Çelebi, CemAmmonia (NH3) is a toxic substance resulting in various acute and chronic effects on individuals. NH3 detection, monitoring methods, and detection tools are desperately needed. In this work, we improved the NH3 sensing capabilities of grapheme (GP) films deposited by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) by modifying aromatic self-assembled monolayer (SAM) molecules such as 5-[(3-methylphenyl) (phenyl) amino] isophthalic acid (MeIPA) and 5-(diphenyl)amino] isophthalic acid (PhIPA) on amperometric detection method. Morphological investigations of the films were carried out by optical and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Surface potential was characterized with Kelvin probe force microscopy (KPFM), and vibrational properties were characterized with Raman spectroscopy. MeIPA modification increased NH3 uptake by two times compared to unmodified GP. The results indicated that the SAM modification enhanced NH3 molecule adsorption and improved its periodic reversible and reproducible response using the amperometric detection system, indicating that SAM molecules might be a feasible probe for NH3. © 2001-2012 IEEE.
