Article Citation - WoS: 4Citation - Scopus: 4Adsorption Kinetics of Methane Reformer Off-Gases on Aluminum Based Metal-Organic Framework(Elsevier Ltd., 2020) Angı, Deniz; Çakıcıoğlu Özkan, Seher FehimeSolvothermal synthesis of aluminum based metal-organic frameworks (MIL-53(Al)s) were conducted by considering the effects of crystallization and activation temperatures, and the solvent at purification step. Adsorption kinetics of Steam Methane Reformer off gas components at 34, 70 and 100 °C temperatures was measured by using ZLC method. Henry constant decreases as diffusion coefficient of the gases increases with increasing temperature; It was determined that the CO gas has the highest activation energy. Adsorption kinetics of gases were controlled with electrostatic interaction. © 2020 Hydrogen Energy Publications LLCArticle Citation - WoS: 5Citation - Scopus: 6Development of an Optical Tyrosinase Biosensor (tca) for Detection of “parathion-Methyl”(Emerald Group Publishing Ltd., 2019) Polatoğlu, İlker; Çakıcıoğlu Özkan, FehimePurpose: This paper aims to present a novel and cost-effective optical biosensor design by simple preparation method for detection of “parathion-methyl,” which is a model pesticide pose to public health and the environment. Design/methodology/approach: The optical enzyme biosensor (TCA) for detection of pesticide “parathion-methyl” was developed on the basis of immobilization of tyrosinase enzyme on chitosan film by adsorption technique. The analytic performance of TCA was investigated by measuring its activity with Ultraviolet (UV) visible spectrophotometer. Findings: Uniform porous network structure and protonated groups of chitosan film provided a microenvironment for tyrosinase immobilization evident from Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and Atomic Force Microscopy analysis. TCA has a wide linear detection range (0-1.03 µM) with high correlation coefficient and it can detect the parathion-methyl concentration as low as 159 nM by noncompetitive inhibition kinetics. Using the TCA sensor both for ten times and at least 45 days without a significant loss in its activity are the indicators of its good operational and storage stability. Moreover, TCA can be applicable to tap water, providing a promising tool for pesticides detection. Originality/value: This is the first time to use the in situ analytical technique that can improve the performance of optical enzyme sensor provided to control the pesticide residue better with respect to traditional techniques. The effect of organic solvents on the performance of optical enzyme biosensor was investigated. Inhibition kinetic of the solvents rarely encountered in literature was also studied besides the pH and temperature tolerance of the optical biosensor.Article Citation - WoS: 112Citation - Scopus: 130The Effect of Hcl Treatment on Water Vapor Adsorption Characteristics of Clinoptilolite Rich Natural Zeolite(Elsevier Ltd., 2005) Çakıcıoğlu Özkan, Fehime; Ülkü, SemraIn this study, water vapor adsorption properties of the clinoptilolite rich zeolite tuff, from Bigadic (Turkey), and its modified forms were examined. The modified forms were obtained by treating the tuff with HCl solutions (0.032, 0.16, 0.32, 1.6 or 5 M) at 25,40,75 and 100°C for 3 h. Infrared spectroscppy and water vapor adsorption were used for the characterization of the zeolites. Langmuir, BET and Dubinin-Raduschevich methods were applied in the analysis of water vapor adsorption data. Applications of Dubinin Raduschevich equation to the water adsorption data displayed that the super-micropore volume was not very sensitive to acid treatment. It was found out that the Langmuir surface area and ultra-micropore volume depend on the degree of the removal of aluminum from the structure.
