Article Citation - WoS: 6Citation - Scopus: 6Esterification of 1-Octanol on Clinoptilolite-Supported Tio2 Catalysts(Springer Verlag, 2019) Özyağcı, Bensu; Şahin, Volkan; Karabakan, AbdulkerimIn this study, a natural type of zeolite, Clinoptilolite (CLI), is used as a support for TiO2. First, TiO2-supported heterogeneous catalysts originated from the high temperature calcination of TiCl4 groups, which were thermally immobilized on clinoptilolite, were obtained. Powder-XRD and EDX analyzes showed that the oxide form of Ti-immobilized on dealuminated clinoptilolite were formed in the anatase phase, and the zeolite structure was preserved. As seen in TGA/DTA analyzes, this catalyst could be efficient and have high stability for many reactions. Second, the esterification reaction of 1-octanol with acetic acid is used as a reference reaction for this catalyst.Article Citation - WoS: 56Citation - Scopus: 58Clinoptilolite Supported Rutile Tio2 Composites: Synthesis, Characterization, and Photocatalytic Activity on the Degradation of Terephthalic Acid(Elsevier Ltd., 2017) Yener, H. B.; Yılmaz, M.; Deliismail, Özgün; Özkan, Seher Fehime; Helvacı, Şerife ŞerefClinoptilolite supported rutile TiO2 composites were synthesized for the enhancement of its photocatalytic performance in the degradation of the aqueous terephthalic acid solution under UVC illumination by the increase in its surface area and to simplify its recovery from the treated solution after use. The XRD spectra of the composites revealed the formation of pure rutile TiO2 on the surface of the clinoptilolite. The SEM images showed the formation of the spherical TiO2 clusters were composed of nano fibers on the surface of the clinoptilolite. For all composites synthesized, the dispersion of the TiO2 particles on the clinoptilolite led to a surface area larger than that of the bare TiO2 and clinoptilolite. The materials synthesized in the present study exhibited higher catalytic activity compared with the commercial Degussa P25 and anatase. Among the catalysts synthesized the TiO2/clinoptilolite with a weight ratio of 0.5 was found to be the most photoactive catalyst even though it contains a lesser amount of active TiO2. The kinetic of the reactions for different catalyst was found to be consistent with the pseudo-first order kinetic model. The results of the Langmuir-Hinshelwood model showed the slight contribution of the adsorption on the degradation. The activity of the TiO2/clinoptilolite with a weight ratio of 0.5 decreased after repetitive use due to the accumulation of the TPA molecules on the surface of the catalyst.Article Citation - WoS: 14Citation - Scopus: 25Kinetic and Equilibrium Studies of Adsorption of Ss-Glucuronidase by Clinoptilolite-Rich Minerals(Elsevier Ltd., 2015) Demirbüker Kavak, Dilek; Ülkü, SemraThe adsorption of the bacterial β-glucuronidase (GUS) enzyme, which is thought to be responsible for the production of reactive metabolites related to some diseases and cancer development, by clinoptilolite-rich mineral was investigated. Batch experiments were performed to analyze of the effects of the clinoptilolite amount and particle size, initial GUS concentration, shaking rate, pH and temperature on the adsorption equilibrium and kinetics. Adsorption equilibrium data were interpreted in terms of Langmuir and Freundlich isotherms; and they were well represented by the Langmuir isotherm model. The percentage of GUS removal by the clinoptilolite-rich mineral was changed in the range of 9.4-54.4% depending on its initial concentration. The kinetic data were analyzed using external film diffusion, intraparticle diffusion, pseudo-first-order and pseudo-second-order models and both external film and intraparticle diffusion appeared to be effective in GUS adsorption. Thermodynamic studies indicated that GUS adsorption is exothermic, physical and spontaneous at the temperatures investigated (288-310 K)Article Citation - WoS: 5Citation - Scopus: 8Investigation of Structural Properties of Clinoptilolite Rich Zeolites in Simulated Digestion Conditions and Their Cytotoxicity Against Caco-2 Cells in Vitro(Springer Verlag, 2013) Kavak, Dilek Demirbüker; Ülkü, SemraThe use of the clinoptilolite rich natural zeolites in biomedical applications such as in anticancer therapy, drug or drug support systems and as nutritive supplement is highly dependent on their behavior in digestive conditions. Aim of this study is to investigate structural stability of clinoptilolite rich natural zeolites in simulated digestion conditions and their interactions with digestive media and with Caco-2 (human colon adenocarcinoma) cells. X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Fourier Transform InfraRed (FTIR), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Inductively Coupled Plasma Atomic Emission Spectroscopy (ICP-AES) analyses of the clinoptilolite rich zeolite samples showed that zeolites preserved their structural stabilities during in vitro digestion. Slight interactions were detected in UV measurements of the digestive liquid media and FTIR spectra of the intestinal digested media powders. SEM results implied that zeolites might have a role in the aggregation of the digestive enzymes. Cytotoxicity test using colon cancer cells showed that clinoptilolite rich natural zeolites have cytotoxic effect against Caco-2 cells and cytotoxicity did not significantly change with respect to simulated digestion process.Article Citation - WoS: 13Citation - Scopus: 14Characterization and Dehydration Behavior of a Natural, Ammonium Hydroxide, and Thermally Treated Zeolitic Tuff(Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2011) Narin, Güler; Balköse, Devrim; Ülkü, SemraAqueous NH4OH-treated and subsequently calcined forms of local natural zeolitic tuff were characterized by different techniques including scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray powder diffraction, inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP-AES), volumetric N2 adsorption at -196°C, thermogravimetry (TG), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and transmittance infrared spectroscopy. The dehydration behavior of the samples was investigated using an in situ temperature-programmed diffuse reflectance Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (TP-DRIFTS) method under vacuum. The DRIFTS spectra recorded yielded information about the effect of the NH4OH treatment and subsequent calcination on the dehydration behavior of the natural zeolite.Changes in the infrared bands corresponding to vibrations of the O-H and N-H bonds upon in situ heating under vacuum were analyzed.Article Citation - WoS: 35Citation - Scopus: 41Batch and Column Studies on Heavy Metal Removal Using a Local Zeolitic Tuff(Elsevier Ltd., 2010) Balköse, Devrim; Ülkü, Semra; Can, ÖzgeIon exchange is considered to be one of the most cost effective methods if low cost ion exchangers such as natural zeolites are used in waste water treatment. In this study, a zeolitic tuff rich in clinoptilolite from Gördes Manisa Turkey was examined to evaluate its ion exchange performance for the removal of copper, nickel and cobalt ions from metal (II) nitrate solutions at various concentrations by performing both batch and packed column experiments. A clinoptilolite tuff with purity around 60% was used in ion exchange experiments. Copper, nickel and cobalt exchange capacities of the tuff were determined as 8.3mg (0.26meq) Cu2+/g, 6.6mg (0.23meq) Ni2+/g and 4.5mg (0.15meq) Co2+/g, respectively. The equilibrium behavior of the system was best described by classical Langmuir model. The experimental breakthrough curves from the column experiments were fitted to solid diffusion control model. The study showed that efficient metal ion removal can be done by using the local clinoptilolite rich tuff. © 2010 Elsevier B.V.Article Kinetics of Proton Transfer in the Zeolitic Tuff(Central European Science Journals, 2009) Çakıcıoğlu Özkan, Seher Fehime; Özkan, Seher Fehime; Polatoğlu, İlkerThe kinetics of a proton transfer into dilute acid solutions containing natural zeolitic tuff was studied by following the pH evolution of the liquid phase. Four different solutions with tuff contents of 9, 3, 1 and 0.5 (% wt) and three different particle size fractions (≤ 2000 μm) were studied. The proton concentration of the solution was decreased by increasing the zeolite amount and decreasing the particle size fraction. The proton transfer reaction was analyzed with chemical reactions and diffusion model equations. Analysis shows that the adsorption and/or ion exchange are possible mechanisms and are expressed by a second order reaction model.Article Citation - WoS: 10Citation - Scopus: 10Clinoptilolite-Rich Mineral as a Novel Carrier for the Active Constituents Present in Ginkgo Biloba Leaf Extract(Elsevier Ltd., 2008) Göktaş, Selda; Ülkü, Semra; Bayraktar, OğuzThe possible use of clinoptilolite-rich mineral as a novel carrier for the active constituents present in Ginkgo biloba leaf extract solutions was investigated. The flavonoid aglycone constituents were found to be selectively adsorbed on the clinoptilolite surface. The antioxidant activity determinations of the extract solutions were performed by the Trolox Equivalent Antioxidant Capacity (TEAC) assay. The antioxidant activity measurements performed for the Ginkgo leaf extract solutions showed decreasing antioxidant activities due to adsorption. The decrease in antioxidant activity was attributed to the adsorption of phenolic constituents on the clinoptilolite surface.Article Citation - WoS: 29Citation - Scopus: 31Cure Kinetics of Epoxy Resin-Natural Zeolite Composites(Springer Verlag, 2008) Cansever Erdoğan, Beyhan; Seyhan, Abdullah Tuğrul; Ocak, Yılmaz; Tanoğlu, Metin; Balköse, Devrim; Ülkü, SemraThe cure kinetics of epoxy resin and epoxy resin containing 10 mass% of natural zeolite were investigated using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The conformity of the cure kinetic data of epoxy and epoxy-zeolite system was checked with the auto-catalytic cure rate model. The results indicated that the hydroxyl group on the zeolite surface played a significant role in the autocatalytic reaction mechanism. This group was able to form a new transition state between anhydride hardener and epoxide group. The natural zeolite particles acted as catalyst for the epoxy system by promoting its curing rate.Article Citation - WoS: 12Citation - Scopus: 17Diffusion Mechanism of Water Vapour in a Zeolitic Tuff Rich in Clinoptilolite(Springer Verlag, 2008) Çakıcıoğlu Özkan, Seher Fehime; Ülkü, SemraThe adsorption kinetics of H2O in a clinoptilolite rich zeolitic tuff was experimentally investigated at 18°C. In the identification of the diffusion mechanism the isothermal adsorption model equation was used. It was found out that the intraparticle mass transfer becomes more dominant over the heat transfer with increase in particle size and the adsorptive dose pressure. Although initially intraparticle mass transfer was the controlling resistance later external heat transfer also contributes to the transfer mechanism.
