Article Citation - WoS: 31Citation - Scopus: 35Electrochemical Degradation of Methylene Blue by a Flexible Graphite Electrode: Techno-Economic Evaluation(American Chemical Society, 2022) Gören, Ayşegül Yağmur; Recepoğlu, Yaşar Kemal; Edebali, Özge; Şahin, Çağrı; Genişoğlu, Mesut; Ökten, Hatice EserIn this study, electrochemical removal of methylene blue (MB) from water using commercially available and low-cost flexible graphite was investigated. The operating conditions such as initial dye concentration, initial solution pH, electrolyte dose, electrical potential, and operating time were investigated. The Box-Behnken experimental design (BBD) was used to optimize the system's performance with the minimum number of tests possible, as well as to examine the independent variables' impact on the removal efficiency, energy consumption, operating cost, and effluent MB concentration. The electrical potential and electrolyte dosage both improved the MB removal efficiency, since increased electrical potential facilitated production of oxidizing agents and increase in electrolyte dosage translated into an increase in electrical current transfer. As expected, MB removal efficiency increased with longer operational periods. The combined effects of operating time-electrical potential and electrical potential-electrolyte concentration improved the MB removal efficiency. The maximum removal efficiency (99.9%) and lowest operating cost (0.012 $/m3) were obtained for initial pH 4, initial MB concentration 26.5 mg/L, electrolyte concentration 0.6 g/L, electrical potential 3 V, and operating time 30 min. The reaction kinetics was maximum for pH 5, and as the pH increased the reaction rates decreased. Consequent techno-economic assessment showed that electrochemical removal of MB using low-cost and versatile flexible graphite had a competitive advantage.Article Citation - WoS: 12Citation - Scopus: 12Dye Removal by Polymer Derived Ceramic Nanobeads(Elsevier, 2021) İçin, Öykü; Ahmetoğlu, Çekdar VakıfEmulsion processed polymer derived ceramic (PDC) nanobeads are used for Methylene Blue dye removal from aqueous solutions. The PDC nanobeads, produced at 600 degrees C and 1200 degrees C pyrolysis, are subsequently coated with titania (anatase). Titania-coated nanobeads show less than 35%, i.e., limited dye adsorption capability in dark. Instead, enhanced total removal efficiency (similar to 97%) is obtained when the initial adsorption is succeeded by photodegradation under UV. Direct reusability tests show that even after the third cycle, very high regeneration efficiencies being above 92% are observed for titania-coated nanobeads.Article Citation - WoS: 19Citation - Scopus: 22Enhanced Methylene Blue Removal Efficiency of Tio2 Embedded Porous Glass(Elsevier Ltd., 2021) Ertuş, E.Burak; Vakıfahmetoğlu, Çekdar; Öztürk, AbdullahA porous glass (PG) embedded with titanium dioxide (TiO2) was produced via impregnation of the PG with Titanium (IV) Isopropoxide solution followed by crystallization. N2 sorption analyses revealed that the specific surface area (SSA) and total pore volume of the PG reached to 358 m2/g and 0.370 cm3/g, respectively. The adsorption capacity of methylene blue (MB) for the glasses was measured in the dark, instead the photocatalytic MB removal efficiency was evaluated by the degradation of MB under UV light illumination using a UV–vis spectrometer. The MB removal efficiency of the TiO2 synthesized anatase powder was only 32.3 % whereas, for TiO2 embedded PG (TiPG) it was 91.6 %, and nearly complete (> 99 %) efficacy was achieved for TiO2 embedded alkaline leached PG (TiPG-AL) under UV illumination 3 h period. Better MB removal efficiency was attributed to high SSA and dispersion of nano size anatase TiO2 crystallites within the porous structure. © 2020 Elsevier LtdArticle Citation - WoS: 45Citation - Scopus: 55Incorporation of Iron Nanoparticles Into Clinoptilolite and Its Application for the Removal of Cationic and Anionic Dyes(Korean Society of Industrial Engineering Chemistry, 2015) Nairat, Muath; Shahwan, Talal; Eroğlu, Ahmet Emin; Fuchs, HaraldThis study reports the preparation of composite sorbents of iron nanoparticles (nZVI) and clinoptilolite at various iron/clinoptilolite ratios. The composites were characterized using various characterization techniques. The material was used for the removal of methylene blue (MB) and methyl orange (MO) as model cationic and anionic dyes. The experiments investigated the effects of time, loading, initial pH, reusability, and temperature on the removal process. According to the results, Cl-nZVI showed fast and quantitative removal over a wide range of concentrations. The removal process was endothermic in nature, and the composite demonstrated reusability for several trials.Article Citation - WoS: 654Citation - Scopus: 786Green Synthesis of Iron Nanoparticles and Their Application as a Fenton-Like Catalyst for the Degradation of Aqueous Cationic and Anionic Dyes(Elsevier Ltd., 2011) Shahwan, Talal; Abu-Sirriah, Sadieh; Nairat, Muath; Boyacı, Ezel; Eroğlu, Ahmet Emin; Scott, Thomas B.; Hallam, Keith R.Iron nanoparticles were produced using extracts of green tea leaves (GT-Fe NPs). The materials were characterized using TEM, SEM/EDX, XPS, XRD, and FTIR techniques and were shown to contain mainly iron oxide and iron oxohydroxide. The obtained nanoparticles were then utilized as a Fenton-like catalyst for decolorization of aqueous solutions containing methylene blue (MB) and methyl orange (MO) dyes. The related experiments investigated the removal kinetics and the effect of concentration for both MB and MO. The concentrations of dyes in aqueous solution were monitored using ultraviolet–visible (UV–vis) spectroscopy. The results indicated fast removal of the dyes with the kinetic data of MB following a second order removal rate, while those of MO were closer to a first order removal rate. The loading experiments indicated almost complete removal of both dyes from water over a wide range of concentration, 10–200 mg L−1. Compared with iron nanoparticles produced by borohydride reduction, GT-Fe nanoparticles demonstrated more effective capability as a Fenton-like catalyst, both in terms of kinetics and percentage removal.
