Article Citation - WoS: 11Citation - Scopus: 11Renewable-Based Treatment Solution of Reactive Blue 21 Dye on Fly Ash as Low-Cost and Sustainable Adsorbent(Elsevier, 2024) Kobya, Mehmet; Dolaz, Mustafa; Goren, Aysegul YagmurThis study investigated the removal of Reactive Blue 21 (RB 21) dye from aqueous solutions by adsorption, evaluating the waste fly ash (FA). The effects of the parameters, such as initial dye concentration (100-750 mg/ L), initial pH (2.0-8.0), adsorbent dose (1.0-4.0 g/L), and temperature (298-323 K) on the adsorption process were investigated. The optimum initial pH value was 2.0 for the highest RB21 dye removal (75.2 mg/g). At optimized conditions (pH 2.0, an adsorbent dosage of 1.0 g/L, a dye concentration of 750 mg/L, and an equilibrium time of 72 h), the highest adsorption capacity was found to be 105.2 mg/g. Moreover, the results of the kinetic studies fitted the pseudo-second-order kinetic model. Equilibrium data were best represented by the Langmuir isotherm model, with a maximum monolayer adsorption capacity of 103.41 mg/g at 323 K. Delta G0ads values were negative and varied from 11.64 to 9.50 kJ/mol in the temperature range of 298-323 K, the values of enthalpy (Delta Ho ads) and entropy (Delta So ads) of thermodynamics parameters were calculated as 37.62 kJ/mol and 86.67 J/mol K, respectively, indicating that this process was endothermic. Furthermore, the adsorbent costs for powdered activated carbon (PAC) and FA to remove 1 kg of RB 21 dye from aqueous solutions are calculated as 2.52 U.S. $ and 0.34 U.S. $, respectively. It is seen that the cost of FA is approximately 7.4 times lower than PAC. The results showed that FA, a low-cost industrial waste, was promising for the adsorption of RB 21 from aqueous solutions.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.
