    Quaternary Ammonium Functionalized Cellulose for Bromate Ion Removal: Structural Insights and Efficacy Evaluation
    (Wiley, 2025) Koseoglu, Ecem; Senver, Buse Aleyna; Recepoglu, Yasar Kemal; Arar, Ozgur
    This 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.

    Shallow Shell Ssta63 Resin: a Rapid Approach To Remediation of Hazardous Nitrate
    (Royal Society of Chemistry, 2024) Cendik, Elif; Saygi, Mugenur; Recepoğlu, Yaşar Kemal; Arar, Ozgur
    This study examines the potential of Purolite Shallow Shell (TM) SSTA63 anion exchange resin for mitigating nitrate ion (NO3-) contamination in aqueous environments. Through systematic experimentation, including dosage optimization, pH dependency, kinetic and desorption studies, we investigate the sorption behavior and practical applications of the resin. Results indicate that the resin effectively removes NO3- ions, with maximum efficiency achieved within 10 minutes. When 0.025 g of resin was used, 75% of NO3- was removed, whereas with 0.05 g, 89% was removed, and with 0.1 g of resin, 95% was removed. At pH 1, approximately 50% of NO3- ions were removed, with removal efficiency reaching 97% between pH 4 and 10. Sorption isotherms affirm the suitability of the Langmuir model for the current investigation. The monolayer maximum sorption capacity (qmax) value was found to be 53.65 mg g-1. The resin demonstrates robust desorption capabilities using 0.1 M hydrochloric acid (HCl), effectively desorbing NO3- above 99%, indicating easy NO3- desorption and resin regeneration. The presence of coexisting ions such as chloride (Cl-), sulfate (SO42-), and phosphate (PO43-) showed a minimal impact on NO3- removal in individual binary mixtures, with efficiencies exceeding 93%, suggesting a strong selectivity of the resin towards NO3-. Purolite SSTA63 anion exchange resin exhibited a high affinity for NO3- ions, even over other competing ions, despite the general trend of ion exchange resins to favor ions with a higher atomic number and valence. Overall, this resin presents a promising solution for NO3- removal, with implications for water treatment and environmental remediation. This study explores the potential of Purolite Shallow Shell (TM) SSTA63 anion exchange resin for mitigating nitrate ion (NO3-) contamination in aqueous environments.
