Article Quaternary Ammonium Functionalized Cellulose for Bromate Ion Removal: Structural Insights and Efficacy Evaluation(Wiley, 2025) Koseoglu, Ecem; Senver, Buse Aleyna; Recepoglu, Yasar Kemal; Arar, OzgurThis study evaluates the potential of quaternary ammonium-modified cellulose as a biosorbent for bromate (BrO3-) removal from aqueous solutions. Elemental analysis and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) characterized the elemental composition and microstructural features of the biosorbent, whereas Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy elucidated its molecular structure. Experimental results revealed that BrO3- removal efficiency increased with the biosorbent dose, achieving approximately 58%, 78%, and 90% removal with 0.025, 0.05, and 0.2 g of sorbent, respectively. The removal was pH-dependent, with efficiencies of 25%, 45%, and 76% at pH 2, 4, and 10, respectively, and the optimal removal was within the pH range of 6-8. Kinetic studies demonstrated rapid sorption, achieving 91% removal within 3 min. The Langmuir sorption isotherm model provided an excellent fit to the experimental data (R 2 = 0.9987), indicating a maximum sorption capacity of 9.40 mg/g. Thermodynamic analyses confirmed a spontaneous and endothermic sorption process (triangle G degrees = -8.11 kJ/mol; triangle H degrees = +2.22 kJ/mol). Desorption studies showed >= 99.9% efficiency using 0.1-M H2SO4 and NaCl, with NaCl selected as the preferred regenerant to minimize acid consumption. The biosorbent retained over 90% removal efficiency across three regeneration cycles. These findings highlight the potential of quaternary ammonium-modified cellulose as a sustainable and efficient material for BrO3- removal from water systems.Book Part Citation - Scopus: 32Language of Response Surface Methodology as an Experimental Strategy for Electrochemical Wastewater Treatment Process Optimization(Elsevier, 2022) Gören, Ayşegül Yağmur; Recepoğlu, Yaşar Kemal; Khataee, AlirezaThe availability and accessibility to safe and secure water resources are the key technological and scientific concerns of global significance. As a result of water scarcity worldwide, wastewater treatment and reuse are considered viable options to replace freshwater resources in agricultural irrigation and domestic and industrial purposes. A significant need for clean water has promoted the invention and/or enhancement of several electrochemical wastewater treatment (EWT) processes. Optimization of the process variables plays a crucial role in wastewater treatment to enhance technology performance, considering removal efficiency, operating cost, and environmental impacts. These processes are fundamentally complex multivariable, and the optimization through conventional methods is unreliable, inflexible, and time- and material-consuming. In this perspective, response surface methodology (RSM) appears to be a beneficial statistical experimental strategy for the performance optimization of the EWT process. This model could be utilized for the optimization and analysis of the individual and/or combined effects of operational variables on the treatment process to improve the system performance. Furthermore, this model provides a number of information from a slight number of experimental trials. In this chapter, a summary and a discussion are presented on the RSM model used in the electrochemical wastewater treatment processes to overcome process crucial challenges toward the optimization and modeling of process parameters. It provides a potential model to enhance the various types of wastewater treatment process performance with effective optimization. Overall, it is described that the RSM model can be used in EWT processes to find the optimum conditions.
