Article Citation - WoS: 12Citation - Scopus: 12Supercritical Fluid Reactive Deposition: a Process Intensification Technique for Synthesis of Nanostructured Materials(Elsevier, 2022) Yousefzadeh, Hamed; Akgün, Işık Sena; Barım, Şansım Bengisu; Sarı, Tarık Bercan; Eriş, Gamze; Uzunlar, Erdal; Bozbağ, Selmi Erim; Erkey, CanSupercritical fluid reactive deposition (SFRD) is a promising process intensification technique for synthesis of a wide variety of nanostructured materials. The enhanced mass transfer characteristics of supercritical fluids (SCFs) coupled with high solubilities of reducing gases in SCFs provide many advantages related to equipment size and time minimization over conventional techniques. Among SCFs, the emphasis has been placed on supercritical CO2 (scCO2) which is non-toxic, cheap and leaves no residue on the treated medium. Moreover, in SFRD, multiple processes such as dissolution, adsorption, reaction, and purification are combined in a single piece of equipment which is an excellent example of process integration for process intensification. In this review, the fundamental thermodynamic and kinetic aspects of the technology are described in detail. The studies in the literature on synthesis of a wide variety of nanostructured materials including supported nanoparticles, films, and ion-exchanged zeolites by SFRD are reviewed and summarized. The applications of these materials as catalysts and sensors are described. The review hopes to lead to further studies on further development of this technology for a wide variety of applications.Article Citation - WoS: 14Citation - Scopus: 15Investigation of the Effect of Gel Properties on Supercritical Drying Kinetics of Ionotropic Alginate Gel Particles(Elsevier, 2019) Şahin, İbrahim; Uzunlar, Erdal; Erkey, CanA series of spherical ionotropic alginate gel particles with different diameters ranging from 2.8mm to 5.0mm and porosities ranging from 0.899 to 0.976 were prepared by dripping a Na-alginate solution into a solution of salts of divalent cations (Ca2+, Mn2+, Ni2+, Co2+, Cu2+ and Zn2+). After solvent exchange with ethanol, kinetics of supercritical drying of these ionotropic alginate gel particles in a packed bed was investigated at 308-338 K and 100-120 bar. Experimental data were compared with predictions of a model which considers diffusive transport inside the pores and convection in the flowing fluid stream. The model predicted drying profiles by taking into account only the changes in porosity and diameter of the gel particles. A convective mass transfer coefficient correlation that was originally developed for supercritical drying of Ca-alginate gel particles was found to be suitable for M-alginate gel particles.

The effects of temperature, pressure, particle size and CO2 flow rate on kinetics of supercritical drying of alginate gel particles in a packed bed were investigated. Increase in CO2 flow rate, increase in temperature and decrease in particle size increased the drying rate and decreased the drying time. A mathematical model based on (i) the diffusion of the solvent inside the pores of gel particles, (ii) external mass transfer of the solvent from the surface of the gel particles into the flowing fluid stream, and (iii) convection and axial dispersion of the solvent in the flowing fluid stream was developed. A correlation for predicting external mass transfer coefficients for supercritical drying of alcogel particles was developed by fitting the model to experimental data. A good agreement between the experimental data and model results was achieved using the developed correlation.
