    Pomza ve Nsdd-pomza ile Sabit Yataklı Kolon Reaktörde Metilen Mavisi Giderimi: Deneysel ve Modelleme Çalışması
    (2019) Balcı, Esin; Ökten, Hatice Eser; Genişoğlu, Mesut; Recepoğlu, Yaşar Kemal; Gören, Ayşegül Yağmur
    Nano sıfır değerlikli demir (nSDD) yüksek renk konsantrasyonlarına sahip tekstil atıksularının arıtımında ekonomik ve çevre dostu bir adsorban olarak ortaya çıkmaktadır. Ancak nSDD partikülleri sulu çözeltilerde elektrostatik etkileşimler sebebiyle kolayca topaklaşmakta ve bu da arıtma veriminin düşmesine neden olmaktadır. Dolayısıyla düşük maliyetli, doğal poröz yapıda ve ortalama 2m2/gr spesifik yüzey alanına sahip pomza, nSDD topaklaşmasını önleyici bir malzeme olarak kullanılabilir. Bu çalışmada sadece pomza ve pomzanSDD (ağırlıkça 9:1) karışımının kullanıldığı kolon reaktörde 25, 50, 75 ve 100 mg/L metilen mavisi konsantrasyonları için arıtma verimleri incelenmiştir. Pomzanın ve pomza-nSDD karışımının 100 mg/L metilen mavisi deneyindeki toplam kapasiteleri sırasıyla 2,8 ve 4,2 mg/g-adsorban olarak bulunmuştur. Özellikle düşük konsantrasyonlarda, pomza-nSDD karışımının arıtma performansını önemli ölçüde arttırdığı görülmüştür. Thomas modeli deneysel verilere uygulanmış ve modelin öngörü gücünün düşük konsantrasyonda yüksekken, yüksek konsantrasyonlarda ortalama olduğu kanısına varılmıştır.

    A Comparative Assessment for Efficient Oleuropein Extraction From Olive Leaf (olea Europaea L. Folium)
    (Murat Yakar, 2023) Recepoğlu, Yaşar Kemal; Gümüşbulut, Gülin; Yüksel Özşen, Aslı
    Since oleuropein has long been known in the health sector and is abundant directly in our country as the fourth largest olive producer, oleuropein, the predominant phenolic ingredient in olive leaves, was recovered in this study using Soxhlet extraction. The effects of different solvent types (acetonitrile, ethanol, methanol, and water), extraction period (4 cycles, 4 h, and 8 h), particle size (250-500 µm and 900-2000 µm), and pretreatment of olive leaves on the yield of oleuropein were examined to determine the maximum yield. A greater oleuropein yield was obtained when the particle size of olive leaves utilized for extraction was lowered. Furthermore, aqueous solvents revealed a higher yield of oleuropein than pure solvents and prolonging the extraction duration resulted in a significant increase in the amount of oleuropein extracted. On the other hand, pretreatment of olive leaves resulted in a reduction in oleuropein output. As a result, with 36% extraction efficiency in terms of olive leaf conversion, the highest oleuropein extraction yield was obtained as 13.35 mg g-1 dry leaf for 8 h of extraction time using olive leaves with a particle size of 250-500 µm and an 80% methanol solution as solvent. © Author(s) 2023.

    Methylene Blue Removal of Fixed-Bed Column Reactor With Pumice and Nzvi-Pumice: Experimental and Modeling Study
    (Süleyman Demirel Üniversitesi, 2019) Genişoğlu, Mesut; Gören, Ayşegül Yağmur; Balcı, Esin; Recepoğlu, Yaşar Kemal; Ökten, Hatice Eser
    Nano zero-valent iron (nZVI) emerges as a low cost and eco-friendly adsorbent to treat textile wastewater, which is rich in dye content. However nZVI particles can easily agglomerate in aqueous environment due to electrostatic interaction, decreasing their treatment efficiency. Therefore pumice, a low-cost and naturally found porous material with lower specific surface area (2m2/gr), can be used as support material to reduce agglomeration of nZVI. Treatment efficiencies of pumice/nZVI packing (10:0 and 9:1 (w/w)) in column reactor for specified initial methylene blue concentrations (25, 50, 75 and 100 mg/L) were investigated in this study. Adsorption capacities of the adsorbents were calculated as 2.8 and 4.2 mg/g-adsorbent, respectively at 100 mg/L initial methylene blue concentration. Mixed bed column performed significantly better than its pumice-only counterpart for low initial concentrations. Thomas adsorption model was applied to experimental results with a moderate to high predictive power.
