Article Citation - WoS: 4Citation - Scopus: 5Experimental Investigation of a Unique Electro-Biomembrane Based Integrated System for Wastewater Treatment and Simultaneous Clean Water, Hydrogen and Energy Production(Institution of Chemical Engineers, 2024) Goren,A.Y.; Dincer,I.; Khalvati,A.This paper concerns the design, development, and building of a unique electro-bio-membrane reactor for concurrent bioH2 production, desalination, and energy production by microorganisms in a single reactor. The effects of varying biomass amounts (5–50 g) and inoculum amounts (250–1500 mL) on the bioH2 production efficiency are also investigated. The lowest cumulative bioH2 yield of 24.2 mL/g is obtained using a biomass amount of 5 g, while it is 44.7 mL/g at a biomass amount of 50 g. The highest H2 production from water electrolysis is also found as 0.719 mL/min at improved conditions. Furthermore, the highest power and current density values are 2794.5 mW/m2 and 2786.1 mA/m2 at 1500 mL-inoculum, biomass amount of 30 g, initial pH of 5.5, and temperature of 37 °C in the dark fermentation (DF) cell. Moreover, the desalination efficiency increases from 41.6 to 65.8% with decreasing inoculum amounts from 1500 to 250 mL. © 2024 The Institution of Chemical EngineersArticle Citation - WoS: 45Citation - Scopus: 51Experimental Investigation of the Effect of Graphene/Water Nanofluid on the Heat Transfer of a Shell-And Heat Exchanger(Wiley-Hindawi, 2023) Zolfalizadeh, Mehrdad; Heris, Saeed Zeinali; Pourpasha, Hadi; Mohammadpourfard, Mousa; Meyer, Josua P. P.The most common type of heat exchanger used in a variety of industrial applications is the shell-and-tube heat exchanger (STHE). In this work, the impact of graphene nanoplate (GNP)/water nanofluids at 0.01 wt.%, 0.03 wt.%, and 0.06 wt.% on the thermal efficiency, thermal performance factor, pressure drop, overall heat transfer, convective heat transfer coefficient (CVHTC), and heat transfer characteristics of a shell-and-tube heat exchanger was examined. For these experiments, a new STHE was designed and built. The novelty of this study is the use of GNPs/water nanofluids in this new STHE for the first time and the fully experimental investigation of the attributes of nanofluids. GNP properties were analysed and confirmed using analyses including XRD and TEM. Zeta potential, DLS, and camera images were used to examine the stability of nanofluids at various periods. The zeta potential of the nanofluids was lower than -27.8 mV, confirming the good stability of GNP/water nanofluids. The results illustrated that the experimental data for distilled water had a reasonably good agreement with Sieder-Tate correlation. The maximum enhancement in the CVHTC of nanofluid with 0.06 wt.% of GNP, was equal to 910 (W/m(2)K), an increase of 22.47%. Also, the efficiency of the heat exchanger for nanofluid at 0.06 wt.% improved by 8.88% compared with that of the base fluid. The heat transfer rate of the nanofluid at maximum concentration and volume flow rate was 3915 (J/kg.K), an improvement of 15.65% over the base fluid. The pressure drops increased as the flow rate and concentration of the nanofluid increased. Although increasing the pressure drop in tubes would increase the CVHTC, it would also increase the power consumption of the pump. In conclusion, nanofluid at 0.06 wt.% had good performance.Article Citation - WoS: 31Citation - Scopus: 32Speciation and Preconcentration of Inorganic Tellurium From Waters Using a Mercaptosilica Microcolumn and Determination by Hydride Generation Atomic Absorption Spectrometry(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2000) Körez, Aslıhan; Eroğlu, Ahmet Emin; Volkan, Mürvet; Ataman, O. YavuzA separation–preconcentration method utilising a mercapto-modified silica microcolumn was developed for the determination of trace amounts of Te(IV) and Te(VI) in waters by hydride generation atomic absorption spectrometry. Bottled drinking water, tap water and sea-water samples were spiked with sub-ng ml−1 concentrations of Te(IV) and the spiked solutions were subjected to the mercapto-modified silica microcolumn separation and enrichment procedure. The spike recovery values varied between 86 and 114%. In addition to spike recovery experiments, accuracy was also verified via the analysis of a certified reference material. The limit of detection for Te(IV) in sea-water with a preconcentration factor of 50 was 0.037 ng ml−1. The capability of the microcolumn enrichment scheme for on-line sample processing via flow manifolds was demonstrated. A detailed interference study was performed.
