This research aims to reduce the chemical oxygen demand (COD) and the total organic carbon (TOC) from the used caustic effluent of the olefin unit of Ilam Petrochemical Company employing the electro-Fenton method. The affecting parameters, such as H2O2 concentration, reaction time, pH, and current density on the COD and TOC removal rate, were investigated. An experimental design by response surface methodology (RSM) based on the Box–Behnken method with the considered factors was considered to study the setup’s effectiveness and optimize the conditions. The outcomes revealed that by increasing the H2O2 concentration from 11 to 18 mgL, the COD removal efficiency was enhanced from 68 to 93%. On the other hand, by increasing the reaction time after 15 min, the COD and TOC removal efficiency decreased. The same trend was observed by increasing the current density after the optimal value. The optimal conditions were acquired at pH = 4, current density = 20 mAcm2, H2O2 concentration = 18 mgL, and reaction time = 15 min. The promising results confirmed that the electro-Fenton could be an excellent treatment technique in Ilam Petrochemical Unit as a spent caustic treatment. © 2023, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature.Article Citation - WoS: 1Effect of Magnetic Field on Quasiparticle Branches of Intrinsic Josephson Junctions With Ferromagnetic Layer(Elsevier Ltd., 2007) Özyüzer, Lütfi; Özdemir, Mustafa; Kurter, Cihan; Hinks, David G.; Gray, Kenneth E.The interlayer tunneling spectroscopy has been performed on micron-sized mesa arrays of HgBr2 intercalated superconducting Bi2212 single crystals. A ferromagnetic multilayer (Au/Co/Au) is deposited on top of the mesas. The spin-polarized current is driven along the c-axis of the mesas through a ferromagnetic Co layer and the hysteretic quasiparticle branches are observed at 4.2 K. Magnetic field evolution of hysteretic quasiparticle branches is obtained to examine the effect of injected spin-polarized current on intrinsic Josephson junction characteristics. It is observed that there is a gradual distribution in quasiparticle branches with the application of magnetic field and increasing field reduces the switching current progressively.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 3Low-Field Behavior of Ti-Added Mgb2/Cu Superconducting Wires(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2005) Gençer, Ali; Kılıç, Ahmet; Okur, Salih; Güçlü, Nusret; Özyüzer, Lütfi; Belenli, İbrahimWe report on low-field magnetic properties of Ti-added (0-20 wt.% of Ti) Cu-clad MgB2 superconducting wires. Wires were produced by mixing appropriate amount of Ti and reacted MgB2 powder which was then placed inside Cu tubes with a diameter of 6 mm. The tubes were then cold worked by rolling or drawing to smaller diameters and then annealed at various temperatures to enhance the grain connectivity. XRD studies show that Ti addition results in new but minor phases. We have then measured ac susceptibilities in the temperature range between 20 K and 40 K in ac fields of 20-1600 A/m. The data show that an additional loss mechanism is established with Ti-addition. The calculated ac losses are increasing with increasing Ti-content in the main superconducting matrix.
