Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1Effect of Compaction and Fluoride Content on the Remelting Efficiency of Pure Magnesium Chips(Taylor & Francis, 2023) Yörük, Pınar; Gökelma, Mertol; Derin, BoraMagnesium is widely used in industries, such as automotive, aerospace, and medical fields. The demand on magnesium has been growing, although the production and melt treatment is complex due to strong oxidation tendency. Recycling of magnesium scraps is crucial due to the criticality of magnesium-containing raw materials in Europe as well as increasing environmental concerns. Remelting of magnesium is typically conducted under a salt flux which absorbs the impurities and protects the melt against oxidation. This study investigates the effect of compaction, fused salt flux, and salt composition on remelting behavior of magnesium chips. Metal yield and coagulation efficiency were calculated after remelting, and samples were characterized by using Scanning Electron Microscope and X-ray Diffraction. The liquidus temperature and density of fluxes were analyzed by FactSage software. Remelting of compacted chips under a fused salt flux with 5 wt.% CaF2 showed the highest magnesium recovery with a yield of 97.7%. Le magnesium est largement utilise dans une variete d'industries, telles que les domaines de l'automobile, de l'aerospatiale et de la medecine. La demande en magnesium s'est accrue, bien que la production et le traitement du bain soient complexes en raison de sa forte tendance a l'oxydation. Le recyclage des dechets de magnesium est crucial en raison de la criticite des matieres premieres contenant du magnesium en Europe ainsi que des preoccupations environnementales croissantes. La refusion du magnesium est effectuee typiquement sous un flux de sel qui absorbe les impuretes et protege le bain contre l'oxydation. Cette etude examine l'effet du compactage, du flux de sel fondu et de la composition du sel sur le comportement a la refusion des copeaux de magnesium. On a calcule le rendement en metal et l'efficacite de la coagulation apres des experiences de refusion, et l'on a caracterise les echantillons a l'aide d'un microscope electronique a balayage et de la diffraction des rayons X. On a analyse la temperature du liquidus (Tliq) et la densite des flux de sel avec le logiciel FactSage. La refusion des copeaux compactes sous un flux de sel fondu avec 5% en poids de CaF2 a montre la recuperation de magnesium la plus elevee avec un rendement de 97.7%Article Citation - WoS: 11Citation - Scopus: 12Treatment of Sugar Industry Wastewater by Using Subcritical Water as a Reaction Media(Wiley, 2023) Orak, Ceren; Öcal, Bulutcem; Yüksel, AslıThe sugar industry is one of the most wastewater-producing industries and it contains high content of organic and inorganic substances. Treating and reusing wastewater has significant importance because sugar industry needs to use a high volume of water. In this study, sugar industry wastewater was treated under subcritical conditions and the impacts of reaction temperature and duration over TOC removal percentage were investigated. Additionally, the impact of NaOH concentration over TOC removal percentage was examined. The highest TOC removal was obtained almost 95 % in the presence of 0.1 M of NaOH at 240 degrees C for 90 min of reaction duration. Treatment of sugar industry wastewater by subcritical water oxidation followed the second-order reaction kinetic model and the activation energy was found as 11.41 kJ/mol. Furthermore, the intermediate products were identified via GC-MS.Article Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 3Atomic-Scale Investigation of the Effect of Surface Carbon Coatings on the Oxidation and Mechanical Properties of Iron Nanowires(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2021) Aral, Gürcan; Islam, Md MahbubulThe understanding of the complex atomistic-scale mechanisms of the oxidation process of carbon (C) coated iron nanowires (Fe NW) and also the resulting modulation of mechanical properties is a highly challenging task. We perform reactive molecular dynamics (RMD) simulations based on the ReaxFF force field to investigate the mechanisms of the oxidation process of [001]-oriented pristine cylindrical Fe NWs with and without a C coating in an O2 environment in order to obtain detailed insights into the influences of the surface C coating on the oxidation process at room temperature. Here, we show that the C-coated shell layer on the free surface of pristine Fe NWs partially controls the spontaneous oxidation when exposed to O2 molecules by hindering the absorption-dissociation of O2 molecules and diffusion of O ions into the shell layer. In particular, the surface modification of the pristine Fe NW with the C-coated shell layer has pronounced effects on the improvement of oxidation resistance by lowering the surface reactivity, which limits the formation of an oxide shell layer on the free surface of the NW. The formation of strong Fe-C bonds in the C-coated shell layer largely restrains the oxidation process. Furthermore, to examine the influence of the C-coated shell layer on the resulting modulation of mechanical properties of the pristine Fe NW, we systematically investigate the mechanical deformation processes and related properties of Fe NW with and without a C coating including their oxidized counterparts subjected to both uniaxial tensile and compressive loads at room temperature. The yield stress and strain (the elastic limit) of Fe NWs including the elastic and plastic deformation phase of the stress-strain relationship are found to be sensitive to the loading modes, the existence of the C-coated shell layer and the resulting formation of an oxide shell layer on the surface of the C-coated Fe NW.Article Citation - WoS: 37Citation - Scopus: 39Reaction of Methyl Radicals With Metal Powders Immersed in Aqueous Solutions(Wiley-VCH Verlag, 2003) Rusonik,I.; Polat,H.; Cohen,H.; Meyerstein,D.Methyl radicals radiolytically produced in aqueous solutions react efficiently with Cr0, Mn0, Fe0, Ni 0, Cu0 and Zn0 powders immersed in the solution. The Cr0, Mn0, Fe0, Ni0 and Zn0 powders reduce the radicals to form methane. On the other hand the Cu0 powder seems to oxidize the radicals. Surprisingly a part of the energy absorbed by the Cr0, Fe0, Ni 0 and Zn0 powders is transferred to the aqueous solution, thus increasing the radical yield. CH4, C2H4, C2H6, C3H6 and C3H 8 are formed when an aqueous deaerated buffer solution, pH 4-5, is added to powders of analytical iron, zinc, manganese and chromium. The source of these gases is carbon traces present, as atoms or atom clusters, in the "analytical" metal powders. These carbon atoms, when present on the surface of the metals, are reduced by the metal particles in aqueous solutions. This mechanism might be the source of light alkanes and alkenes in the prebiotic era. © Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, 69451 Weinheim, Germany, 2003.
