Article Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 3On Digital Twins in Bioprocessing: Opportunities and Limitations(Elsevier Ltd, 2025) Shariatifar, Mehrdad; Rizi, Mohammadsadegh Salimian; Sotudeh-Gharebagh, Rahmat; Zarghami, Reza; Mostoufi, NavidIntegrating Digital Twins (DTs) in bioprocessing has become a prominent focus within the industry. Despite the challenges associated with implementing this technology in the field, the bioprocessing sector is interested in utilizing it. This is due to its potential to enhance process efficiency and overall profitability. The adoption of DTs is driven by the prospect of online monitoring, control, and optimization, enabling the products with precise and desired characteristics. To realize this objective, researchers propose a novel strategy for implementing DTs in bioprocessing. This involves the development of a hybrid model that combines first principal models and Machine Learning (ML) algorithms. This approach effectively addresses the limitations of previous methods and establishes a closed control loop system, continuously monitoring the system and adjusting input variables to achieve optimal outcomes. This study comprehensively explores various aspects of DTs. Firstly, it discusses the concept and characteristics of DTs, along with an examination of the advantages and challenges associated with their implementation. Secondly, it comprehensively analyzes key factors that directly influence DT implementation, including sensors, data collection, and models. Thirdly, it reviews the implications of Digital Solutions (DS) and DT in downstream and upstream bioprocessing. By providing theories, case studies, and practical frameworks, this work seeks to motivate both researchers and industry practitioners to adopt DT methodologies, thereby facilitating the emergence of enhanced precision, operational efficiency, and economic viability within biomanufacturing.Article Citation - WoS: 5Citation - Scopus: 5Rethinking Planning and Nature Conservation Through Degrowth/ Post-Growth Debates(Elsevier Ltd, 2024) Avar,A.A.; Cive,Y.Ö.Based on the critical debates in urban theory, political ecology and urban political ecology literature, this article interrogates the potentialities and limitations of degrowth/post-growth planning, regarding relational, non-dualistic and multi-scalar spatialization of nature conservation. It firstly reveals that pragmatic, technoscientific and “sustainable/ecological urbanism” and market-based nature conservation it incorporates exacerbate socio-ecological crises and socio-spatial inequalities in and beyond cities under the conditions of planetary urbanisation. Second, it interrogates how new market-based nature conservation turned into 'green-grabbing' and primitive accumulation. Having explored the degrowth or post-growth approach in relation to other radical nature conservation approaches (e.g., convivial conservation and global safety network), it interrogates the ways in which post-growth planning deals with socio-spatial aspects of nature conservation. It takes the “degrowth/ post-growth planning” both as an instrument to spatialize radical nature conservation and as an approach addressing socio-ecological injustices and inequalities intersecting at multiple scales. It concludes that the degrowth/ post-growth planning can overcome its limitations and advance its potentialities, drawing from already existing radical conservation and critical approaches in neighbouring disciplines as well as the discipline itself. © 2024 Elsevier LtdArticle Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 4Multi-Scale Analysis of the Adhesive Bonding Behavior of Laser Surface-Treated Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer Composite Structures(Elsevier Ltd, 2024) Nuhoglu,K.; Aktas,E.; Tanoglu,M.; Barisik,M.; Esenoglu,G.; Martin,S.; Iris,M.E.Laser surface treatment has considerable potential to provide high-quality adhesive-joining of carbon-fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) composites by removing contaminants and the top polymer layer and increasing the surface roughness without damaging the fibers. Yet, predicting the failure strength and mechanism of the laser surface-treated adhesively bonded joints under static and cyclic loads is important to designing reliable structures. In this study, a multi-scale Finite Element Analysis (FEA) of the adhesively bonded CFRP composite structures was developed to accurately predict the failure load and damage growth. Numerical simulations of the single lap joint (SLJ) specimen was executed, employing the cohesive zone modeling (CZM) technique between adjacent surfaces to simulate the bonding behavior of the secondary bonded CFRP parts. Using the homogenization procedure, the micro-scale simulation of the contact region of the laser-treated adherent surface and adhesive was performed to extract traction separation law (TSL) parameters. The mechanical interlocking contribution of the laser surface treatment was imported to the macro-scale FEA, analyzing the representative volume element (RVE) of the bonding interface region. We presented that the multi-scale analysis estimated the experimentally measured mechanical behaviour, strength values, and failure modes successfully with a negligible error (7 %). © 2024 Elsevier LtdArticle Citation - WoS: 6Citation - Scopus: 8Numerical Modeling of the Co2 Injection in the Kızıldere Geothermal Field Using Multiple Inter-Well Tracer Tests(Elsevier Ltd, 2024) Sevindik,D.B.; Erol,S.; Akin,S.Many geothermal power plants in Turkey emit high amounts of non-condensable gas (NCG), consisting mainly of CO2. Thus, it is crucial to mitigate the NCG emissions by re-injecting the captured gas back into the reservoir. In this study, a numerical sector reservoir model is developed to inspect how the reinjected NCG dissipates in the reservoir for successful sequestration. To accurately characterize the flow characteristics in the reservoir, chloride concentrations observed at the production wells were matched. Furthermore, two multi-well slug tracer tests (one with NCG injection well and one from the northernmost shallow injection well by using different naphthalene-sulphonates) results have been used to calibrate the numerical model. Consequently, a high degree of quantitative and qualitative characterization of the reservoir section near the injection site has been achieved. Using the calibrated model, the impact of CO2-brine injection has been studied for different injection scenarios with varying injection rates and durations. The results of the CO2-charged brine injection showed that approximately 20 % of the injected CO2 circulates in the reservoir, ensuring reduced CO2 emissions. It has been estimated that 200 Mt of CO2 emission can be safely removed if all injection wells are used for NCG re-injection. © 2024Review Citation - WoS: 5Citation - Scopus: 5Geothermal Energy Potential in Relation To Black Carbon Reduction and Co2 Mitigation of Himalayan Geothermal Belt – a Review(Elsevier Ltd, 2024) Singh,H.K.; Chandrasekharam,D.; Raju,N.J.; Ranjan,S.We have compiled geochemical dataset of springs (Thermal and Cold) from the Himalayan Geothermal Belt (HGB), shows slightly acidic to moderately alkaline (pH = 4.5 – 9.4) in nature with an emerging surface temperature of 27 °C – 96 °C. The calculated reservoir temperature ranged in between 78 °C – 159 °C categorize the HGB as a low- to a moderate-enthalpy geothermal system. It was observed that geochemical facies of thermal springs dominated by the Ca-HCO3, Na-HCO3 and Na-Cl composition while cold springs are abundant in Ca-Mg-HCO3 and Ca-Mg-SO4. Interestingly, Piper diagram inferred that Puga, Chumathang, and Gaik thermal springs, lies in the western part of HGB that correlate with the Yangbajing thermal spring in Tibet (eastern part of HGB). Tectonically, the HGB is associated with the continental collision zone, shallow crustal melting, and high heat-producing younger granite (70 mW/m2 to > 400 mW/m2); therefore, the resultant geothermal gradient along the HGB is more than 200 °C/km. The present research documents that HGB have potential to reduce CO2 and BC emissions by taping the geothermal energy for power generation and we have projected that the power potential of HGB is 23,622 MWe that can help to mitigate 1.4 × 108 tCO2. © 2024 Elsevier LtdArticle Citation - WoS: 10Citation - Scopus: 12Transparent block copolymer thin films for protection of optical elements via chemical vapor deposition(Elsevier Ltd, 2018) Karabıyık, Merve; Ebil, ÖzgençIn this study, glycidyl methacrylate and 1H, 1H, 2H, 2H-perfluorodecyl acrylate copolymer p(GMA-co-PFDA) thin-films fabricated via Initiated Chemical Vapor Deposition (iCVD) were investigated as protective coatings on optical BK7 glass substrates and commercial optical filters. Durability tests based on military standards MIL-F-48616 and MIL-C-48497A were performed to evaluate performance of coatings for the protection of surfaces of optical elements. Cross-linked p(GMA-co-PFDA) copolymer coatings successfully passed all durability tests showing excellent mechanical properties and protection against humidity, salt water, swelling in water, and resistance to organic solvents while providing excellent adhesion to substrate. iCVD process enabled fine tuning of film morphology, mechanical properties and hydrophobicity by controlling the process parameters. Fabricated films were hydrophobic and highly transparent (>98%) in the wavelength range from 300 nm to 1000 nm. Optical transmittance measurements before and after coating process proved that while providing chemical and physical protection, p(GMA-co-PFDA) copolymer thin-films do not cause any detectable change in optical performance of commercial narrow band and wide band filters.
