    Photocatalytic Hydrogen Energy Evolution From Sugar Beet Wastewater
    (Wiley-VCH Verlag, 2021) Orak, Ceren; Yüksel, Aslı
    Hydrogen is a clean, environmentally friendly, storable, and sustainable green energy source as well as a potential fuel. It could be produced from various biomass, wastewater, or other sources by different processes. In this study, hydrogen was evolved from sucrose model solution and real sugar beet wastewater by photocatalytic oxidation using a perovskite catalyst under solar light irradiation. In this context, firstly, the graphene supported LaFeO3 (GLFO) was synthesized and then, a characterization study shows that GLFO is successfully synthesized. To optimize the reaction parameters (pH, catalyst loading, and initial hydrogen peroxide concentration), an experimental matrix was created using the Box Behnken model. Whereas the highest hydrogen evolution from sucrose model solution was observed as 3520 μmol/gcat, the highest hydrogen evolution from sugar beet wastewater was obtained as 7035 μmol/gcat. The highest TOC removal (99.73 %) from sugar beet wastewater was also achieved at the same reaction conditions.

    Microstructures and Mechanical Properties of Graphene Platelets-Reinforced Spark Plasma Sintered Tantalum Diboride-Silicon Carbide Composites
    (IOP Publishing, 2019) Gürcan, Kübra; İnci, Ezgi; Saçkan, İbrahim; Ayaş, Erhan; Gasan, Hakan
    Graphene nanoplates reinforcement (GNPs) TaB2-SiC composites were fabricated with Spark Plazma sintering (SPS) at 1850 degrees C with a-uniaxial pressure of 50 MPa and 10 min dwell time. Systematic investigation on the effect of GNP amount of densification, microstructural and mechanical properties (microhardness and fracture toughness) of the composites were presented. Density and hardness of composites decreased with the addition of GNP, while similar to 35% increase of fracture toughness value was obtained with GNP addition. The microstructural evaluation indicated that overlapped and agglomerated GNPs increased with an increasing amount of GNP in the composites and caused to decrease of density and hardness. On the other hand, GNP was retained in the composite form even with high process temperature (1850 degrees C) and cause toughening of composites with changing the fracture mode from transgranular to transgranular/intergranular fracture. GNP pull out, crack branching, crack bridging and crack deflection were observed as main toughening mechanisms.

    Defect Induced Anderson Localization and Magnetization in Graphene Quantum Dots
    (Elsevier, 2018) Altıntaş, Abdulmenaf; Güçlü, Alev Devrim
    We theoretically investigate the effects of atomic defect related short-range disorders and electron-electron interactions on Anderson type localization and the magnetic properties of hexagonal armchair graphene quantum dots using an extended mean-field Hubbard model and wave packet dynamics for the calculation of localization lengths. We observe that randomly distributed defects with concentrations between 1 and 5% of the total number of atoms leads to localization alongside magnetic puddle-like structures. Although the localization lengths are not affected by interactions, staggered magnetism and localization are found to be enhanced if the defects are distributed unevenly between the sublattices of the honeycomb lattice.
