Article Citation - WoS: 17Citation - Scopus: 19Effect of Operational Conditions on Separation of Lithium From Geothermal Water by ?-Mno2 Using Ion Exchange–membrane Filtration Hybrid Process(Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2018) Recepoğlu, Yaşar Kemal; Kabay, Nalan; Yoshizuka, Kazuharu; Nishihama, Syouhei; Yılmaz İpek, İdil; Arda, Müşerref; Yüksel, MithatA hybrid system coupling ion exchange and ultrafiltration (UF) was employed to separate lithium from lithium-spiked geothermal water. The effect of process parameters such as adsorbent type, adsorbent dosage, permeate flow rate, and replacement speeds of fresh and saturated adsorbents have been evaluated to determine the efficiency of the hybrid system. According to the results obtained using λ-MnO2 derived from spinel-type lithium manganese dioxide, the optimal operating conditions to separate lithium from geothermal water were found with powdery λ-MnO2 with an adsorbent concentration of 1.5 g adsorbent/L solution, replacement rates of fresh and saturated adsorbents of 6.0 mL/min, and a permeate flow rate of 5.0 mL/min. The ion exchange–UF hybrid system providing an advantage to work with very fine particles easily can be considered as a favorable process for the separation of lithium from geothermal water.Article Citation - Scopus: 1Enhancement of Cerium Exchange With Ultrasound(Turkish Chemical Society, 2018) Çakıcıoğlu Özkan, Fehime; Erten Kaya, YaseminIn this study the effect of ultrasound of the cerium exchange was studied. The results were compared to those obtained from traditional batch exchange method. Contact time, initial cation concentration (fold equivalent excess) and the types of the ultrasound were studied. Ultrasonic probe, which is the most effective method, enhanced the replacement of Na+ ion with Ce3+ ion in the extra-framework of zeolite up to 73 % by applying 5 consecutive ion exchanges. The cerium in the solution caused to be formed cerium oxides on the crystal surface occluding the pores. Thus the specific surface area of cerium exchanged zeolite was decreased due to formation of cerium complexes on the surface and into the pores. © 2018, Turkish Chemical Society.

The results were compared to those obtained from the traditional batch exchange method under similar conditions. Contact time and initial cation concentration (fold equivalent excess) were studied. Ultrasound enhanced the replacement of Na + ion with Li +, Ca 2+ and Ce 3+ ions in the extra-framework of zeolite up to 76%, 72% and 66%, respectively. The intraparticle diffusion is the rate limiting step in the ion exchange for both exchange methods. As compared to the traditional exchange method, the ultrasonic method applied in this study was found to be very effective on the exchange amount at equilibrium.Article Citation - WoS: 86Citation - Scopus: 98Characterization and Catalytic Activity of Cufezsm-5 Catalysts for Oxidative Degradation of Rhodamine 6g in Aqueous Solutions(Elsevier Ltd., 2010) Dükkancı, Meral; Gündüz, Gönül; Yılmaz, Selahattin; Yaman, Y. C.; Prikhod’ko, R. V.; Stolyarova, I. V.This study presents an evaluation of the catalytic performances of Fe and Cu containing ZSM-5 zeolites for oxidation of Rhodamine 6G. Fe and Cu were loaded by ion exchange or through hydrothermal synthesis. The catalytic process was carried out in an aqueous solution using H2O2 as an oxidant. The catalyst prepared by hydrothermal synthesis showed the highest activity (100% decolorization, 59.1% aromatic degradation and 51.8% TOC removal at initial pH of 3.5). This catalyst was stable against leaching even at low pH. The change in activity of the catalysts prepared was attributed to incorporation of the Fe and Cu species with ZSM-5. Fe and Cu were in structural locations - in the framework - in the catalyst prepared by hydrothermal synthesis while there were extraframework cations or species in catalysts prepared by ion exchange. Incoporation of Cu into FeZSM-5 increased its catalytic activity. © 2010 Elsevier B.V.

The zeolitic materials was interacted with acidic (hydrochloric acid, lactic acid, acetic acid) and basic (sodium hydroxide) solutions. Ion exchange, adsorption, complex formation, precipitation and cation hydrolysis were possible interaction mechanisms affected by the amount and cation content of zeolite and pH. The dominant mechanisms seemed to be ion exchange and adsorption in HCl solution when zeolite was used in the as-received form, but dissociation of outer-sphere complexes when modified zeolite was used. In lactic acid, acetic acid as well as the basic solution, cation hydrolysis and complex formation were additional mechanism in the interactions. © 2010 Elsevier Inc.

In this study, a zeolitic tuff rich in clinoptilolite from Gördes Manisa Turkey was examined to evaluate its ion exchange performance for the removal of copper, nickel and cobalt ions from metal (II) nitrate solutions at various concentrations by performing both batch and packed column experiments. A clinoptilolite tuff with purity around 60% was used in ion exchange experiments. Copper, nickel and cobalt exchange capacities of the tuff were determined as 8.3mg (0.26meq) Cu2+/g, 6.6mg (0.23meq) Ni2+/g and 4.5mg (0.15meq) Co2+/g, respectively. The equilibrium behavior of the system was best described by classical Langmuir model. The experimental breakthrough curves from the column experiments were fitted to solid diffusion control model. The study showed that efficient metal ion removal can be done by using the local clinoptilolite rich tuff. © 2010 Elsevier B.V.Article Citation - WoS: 19Citation - Scopus: 21Microwave Effect on Ion-Exchange and Structure of Clinoptilolite(Springer Verlag, 2007) Akdeniz, Yelda; Ülkü, SemraThe effect of microwave irradiation on the ion exchange degree and structure of clinoptilolite mineral has been examined in comparison with the conventional heat treatment in waterbath. Clinoptilolite-rich mineral from the Western Anatolia, Bigadiç region was used for the experimental study. The mineral was mainly clinoptilolite (80-85%) and additionally, quartz (5-10%), and analcime+mordenite (<5%) were found as co-existing minerals. The mineral was stable towards dehydration and maintains its original structure up to 800°C. The BET and Langmuir surface areas of the sample were found to be 22 and 17m2/g for N2 adsorption and 28 and 22m2/g for Ar adsorption, respectively. For the exchange experiments, clinoptilolite rich mineral was treated with 1N NaCl salt solution both in a microwave unit and waterbath for 10min, 1h and 2h at 80°C. The waterbath treatment with the same conditions was continued for two additional weeks. The chemical composition of the parent and Na-exchanged forms of the clinoptilolite rich minerals were analyzed by using Inductively Coupled Plasma Atomic Emission Spectroscopy (ICP-AES). Microwave treatment was found to be more rapid and effective for ion exchange compared to conventional waterbath treatment. Additionally, the XRD results reveal that microwave irradiation has zero effect on the structure of the clinoptilolite rich mineral.Article Citation - WoS: 249Citation - Scopus: 268Silver, Zinc, and Copper Exchange in a Na-Clinoptilolite and Resulting Effect on Antibacterial Activity(Elsevier Ltd., 2004) Top, Ayben; Ülkü, SemraAg+-Na+, Zn2+-Na+, and Cu2+-Na+ equilibria for clinoptilolite-rich mineral from Gördes (Western Anatolia) were investigated at 25 °C and 0.1 N total solution normality. While silver exchange was favorable over the whole concentration range, zinc and copper were partially exchanged and preferred only at low concentrations. The standard free energies of exchanges for Ag+-Na+, Zn2+-Na+, and Cu2+-Na+ pairs were found as -6.0, 2.03, and 3.09 kJ/equiv., respectively. From these values, selectivity sequence was determined as Ag+>Na+ >Zn2+>Cu2+. Antibacterial activities of the exchanged samples were measured as a function of exchange level against Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Escherichia coli. Considering the selectivity sequence of the clinoptilolite and antibacterial activity results, Ag-clinoptilolite seemed to be promising antibacterial material.
