Article Citation - WoS: 4Citation - Scopus: 3Atomic-Scale Insights Into Carbon Dioxide Hydrogenation Over Bimetallic Iron-Cobalt Catalysts: a Density Functional Theory Study(MDPI, 2023) Tuncer, Dilan; Kızılkaya, Ali CanThe conversion of carbon dioxide to fuels and chemicals is a promising long-term approach for mitigating CO2 emissions. Despite extensive experimental efforts, a fundamental understanding of the bimetallic catalytic structures that selectively produce the desired products is still lacking. Here, we report on a computational surface science approach into the effect of the Fe doping of Co(111) surfaces in relation to CO2 hydrogenation to C1 products. Our results indicate that Fe doping increases the binding strength of surface species but slightly decreases the overall catalytic activity due to an increase in the rate-limiting step of CO dissociation. FeCo(111) surfaces hinder hydrogenation reactions due to lower H coverages and higher activation energies. These effects are linked to the Lewis basic character of the Fe atoms in FeCo(111), leading to an increased charge on the adsorbates. The main effect of Fe doping is identified as the inhibition of oxygen removal from cobalt surfaces, which can be expected to lead to the formation of oxidic phases on bimetallic FeCo catalysts. Overall, our study provides comprehensive mechanistic insights related to the effect of Fe doping on the catalytic behavior and structural evolution of FeCo bimetallic catalysts, which can contribute to the rational design of bimetallic catalysts.Article Citation - WoS: 12Citation - Scopus: 14Identifying Geogenic and Anthropogenic Aluminum Pollution on Different Spatial Distributions and Removal of Natural Waters and Soil in Çanakkale, Turkey(Amer Chemical Soc, 2023) Hızlı, Sezin; Koraoğlu, Aybike Gül; Gören, Ayşegül Yağmur; Kobya, MehmetThe Canakkale-Kirazli region (Turkey) is enriched with minerals, especially aluminum (Al), which dangerously get transported into aquatic media due to several mining and geological activities in recent years. In this study, Al and other potentially toxic metals (PTMs) including B, Ba, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, Mn, Ni, Pb, Si, and Zn, in both water and soil samples, were measured for quality determination. Selected metals were also analyzed by the enrichment factor (EF), the geoaccumulation index (I-geo), the contamination factor (CF), and the pollution load index (PLI) to evaluate both water and soil pollution geogenically or anthropogenically. Also, the metals were clustered to support the pollution source with Pearson's correlation, principal component analysis (PCA), and hierarchical cluster analysis (HCA). Forty-five natural water samples and 12 soil samples were collected spatially. To perform pollution assessment, two fundamental treatment processes to remove Al pollution from the sample including the highest Al concentration (38.38 mg/L) in water were applied: (1) precipitation with pH adjustment and (2) removal with ion exchange. The pH values of water samples were changed in the range of 3-9 to test the dissolution of Al. The results demonstrated that the study area was mostly under the influence of geogenic aluminum pollution.Article Citation - WoS: 307Citation - Scopus: 364Iron Absorption: Factors, Limitations, and Improvement Methods(American Chemical Society, 2022) Pişkin, Elif; Cianciosi, Danila; Güleç, Şükrü; Tomas, Merve; Çapanoğlu, EsraIron is an essential element for human life since it participates in many functions in the human body, including oxygen transport, immunity, cell division and differentiation, and energy metabolism. Iron homeostasis is mainly controlled by intestinal absorption because iron does not have active excretory mechanisms for humans. Thus, efficient intestinal iron bioavailability is essential to reduce the risk of iron deficiency anemia. There are two forms of iron, heme and nonheme, found in foods. The average daily dietary iron intake is 10 to 15 mg in humans since only 1 to 2 mg is absorbed through the intestinal system. Nutrient-nutrient interactions may play a role in dietary intestinal iron absorption. Dietary inhibitors such as calcium, phytates, polyphenols and enhancers such as ascorbic acid and proteins mainly influence iron bioavailability. Numerous studies have been carried out for years to enhance iron bioavailability and combat iron deficiency. In addition to traditional methods, innovative techniques are being developed day by day to enhance iron bioavailability. This review will provide information about iron bioavailability, factors affecting absorption, iron deficiency, and recent studies on improving iron bioavailability.Article Citation - WoS: 119Citation - Scopus: 151Batch Removal of Aqueous Cu2+ Ions Using Nanoparticles of Zero-Valent Iron: a Study of the Capacity and Mechanism of Uptake(American Chemical Society, 2008) Karabelli, Duygu; Üzüm, Çağrı; Shahwan, Talal; Eroğlu, Ahmet Emin; Scott, Tom B.; Hallam, Keith R.; Lieberwirth, IngoIn this study, nZVI prepared by borohydride reduction was applied for the removal of Cu2+ ions under a variety of experimental conditions. The uptake experiments investigated the effects of initial concentration, contact time, pH, and repetitive loading on the extent of retardation of Cu2+ ions. Within the applied conditions, the sorbent demonstrated fast uptake kinetics and outstanding fixation abilities up to an initial Cu2+ concentration of 200.0 mg/L. Partitioning of Cu2+ ions between liquid and solid phases demonstrated an isotherm of L-type. Within the studied conditions, the capacity of uptake was found to be 250 mg of Cu2+ per g of nZVI. According to X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) results, Cu2+ ions were sorbed primarily via a redox mechanism that resulted in the formation of Cu2O and Cu0. The contact of iron nanoparticles with aqueous media caused extensive formation of iron oxide. However, the material did not completely lose its removal capacity and was repeatedly applied at low concentrations for further uptake trials.
