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: 4Citation - Scopus: 4Effect of Oxidation on Mechanical Properties of Copper Nanowire: a Reaxff (reactive Force Field) Molecular Dynamics Study(Aip Publishing, 2023) Aral, Gürcan; Islam, Md MahbubulNanostructures with high surface area to volume ratio, such as oxidized and coated Cu nanowires (NWs), exhibit unique mechanical properties due to their size and surface effects. Understanding the complex oxidation process of Cu NWs at nanoscale and quantifying its resulting effects on mechanical behavior and properties are significantly essential for effective usage of Cu NW devices in a wide range of applications in nanoelectronics. Here, we perform molecular dynamics simulations using ReaxFF (reactive force field) to investigate the oxidation process and mechanisms of [001]-oriented cylindrical Cu NWs and its contribution on the mechanical deformation behavior and material properties as a function of NW sizes. The relatively thin oxide CuxOy layer is formed on the surface of Cu NWs in an O-2 environment, creating a core/shell (Cu/CuxOy) NW structure that played a key role in governing the overall tensile mechanical deformation behavior and properties of Cu NW. The formation of oxide layer effects, including the resulting interface and defects, leads to a reduction in the initial dislocation nucleation barrier, which facilitates the onset of plasticity and stress relaxation, ultimately resulting in a negative impact on the tensile strength, Young's modulus, yield stress and strain, and flow stress when compared to pristine counterparts. It is worth noting that the tensile mechanical response and properties of the Cu NWs are highly dependent on the pre-existing oxide shell layer associated with the size of NW, determining the overall mechanical performance and properties of Cu NWs.Article Citation - WoS: 19Citation - Scopus: 20Isothermal Crystallization Kinetics and Mechanical Properties of Polycaprolactone Composites With Zinc Oxide, Oleic Acid, and Glycerol Monooleate(John Wiley and Sons Inc., 2013) Alp, Burcu; Cesur, SerapThe isothermal crystallization and mechanical behavior of polycaprolactone (PCL) with zinc oxide (ZnO) with oleic acid and glycerol monooleate (GMO) were studied. Theoretical melting points calculated by the Flory-Huggins and Thompson-Gibbs models were thoroughly compared with differential scanning calorimetry experimental observations. The isothermal crystallization kinetic parameters by Avrami analysis showed that crystallization was controlled by nucleation, crystal growth was spherical, and the nucleation type changed between thermal and athermal nucleation. X-ray diffraction showed that when the additives were used together both the crystal thickness and the degree of crystallinity increased. A multiple-response regression analysis was made with the ZnO, oleic acid, and GMO concentrations as variables and the crystallinity as output. Interaction parameters by the Pukanzky model were calculated from the tensile strength at the yield point and indicated that the addition of oleic acid or GMO improved the interface between the ZnO particles and PCL.Article Citation - WoS: 21Citation - Scopus: 23Adsorption of Methylene Blue From Aqueous Solution on High Lime Fly Ash: Kinetic, Equilibrium, and Thermodynamic Studies(Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2012) Keleşoğlu, Serkan; Kes, Mürşide; Sütçü, Leman; Polat, HürriyetKinetic, equilibrium, and thermodynamic studies were performed for the batch adsorption of methylene blue (MB) on the high lime fly ash as a low cost adsorbent material. The studied operating variables were adsorbent amount, contact time, dye concentration, and temperature. The kinetic data were analyzed using the pseudo-first order and pseudo-second order kinetic models and the adsorption kinetic was followed well by the pseudo-second order kinetic model. The equilibrium data were fitted with the Freundlich, Langmuir, and Dubinin Radushkevich (D-R) isotherms and the equilibrium data were found to be well represented by the Freundlich and D-R isotherms. Based on these two isotherms MB is taken by chemical ion exchange and active sites on the high lime fly ash have different affinities to MB molecules. Various thermodynamic parameters such as enthalpy of adsorption (ΔH°), free energy change (ΔG°), and entropy change (ΔS°) were investigated. The positive value of ΔH° and negative value of ΔG° indicate that the adsorption is endothermic and spontaneous. The positive value of ΔS° shows the increased randomness at the solid-liquid interface during the adsorption. A single-stage batch adsorber was also designed based on the Freundlich isotherm for the removal of MB by the high lime fly ash. © 2012 Copyright Taylor and Francis Group, LLC.Article Citation - WoS: 12Citation - Scopus: 13Statistical Thermal Stability of Pvc(John Wiley and Sons Inc., 2010) Atakul Savrık, Sevdiye; Cansever Erdoğan, Beyhan; Balköse, Devrim; Ülkü, SemraExperimental design was used to optimize the processing parameters for the decomposition of poly (vinyl chloride). Factorial design and face centered composite design (FCC) were applied to determine the optimum conditions. A total of 10 g PVC powder was mixed with different amounts of zinc stearate (ZnSt 2) and natural zeolite and tested for thermal stability. Factorial fitted model was explained by first order pattern due to the significant main effect regression constants, and FCC model was described by second order model owing to higher order polynomial coefficients. FCC design was superior to factorial design as FCC considers not only its pure quadratic effects contribution but also its higher overall desirability for thermal stability of PVC. For factorial design the optimum conditions were determined as 163.06 mg for ZnSt2, 399.99 mg for zeolite, and 140°C for temperature with desirability of 0.933. However, 400 mg for ZnSt2, 333.24 mg for zeolite, and 140°C for temperature with desirability of 0.956 were obtained as the optimum conditions by FCC design. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
