Article Citation - WoS: 4Citation - Scopus: 5Co2 Absorption Into Primary and Secondary Amine Aqueous Solutions With and Without Copper Ions in a Bubble Column(TÜBİTAK - Türkiye Bilimsel ve Teknolojik Araştırma Kurumu, 2022) Yousefzadeh, Hamed; Güler, Cansu; Erkey, Can; Uzunlar, ErdalChemical absorption of CO2 into aqueous amine solutions using a nonstirred bubble column was experimentally investigated. The performance of CO2 absorption of four different primary and secondary amines including monoethanolamine (MEA), piperazine (PZ), 2-piperidineethanol (2PE), and homopiperazine (HPZ) were compared. The effects of initial concentration of amine, the inlet mole fraction of CO2, and solution temperature on the rate of CO2 absorption and CO2 loading (mol CO2/mol amine) were studied in the range of 0.02–1 M, 0.10–0.15, and 25–40 °C, respectively. The effect of the presence of copper ions in the amine solution on CO2 loading was also studied. By comparison of the breakthrough curves of the amines at different operational conditions, it was revealed that the shortest and longest time for the appearance of the breakthrough point was observed for MEA and HPZ solutions, respectively. CO2 loading of MEA, 2PE, PZ, and HPZ aqueous solutions at 25 °C, 0.2 M of initial concentration of amine, and 0.15 of inlet mole fraction of CO2 were 1.06, 1.14, 1.13, and 1.18 mol CO2/mol amine, respectively. By decreasing the inlet mole fraction of CO2 from 0.15 to 0.10, CO2 loading slightly decreased. As the initial concentration of amine and temperature decreased, CO2 loading increased. Also, the presence of copper ions in the absorbent solution resulted in a decrease in the CO2 loading of MEA and HPZ aqueous solutions. In case of PZ and 2PE amines, adding copper ions led to precipitation even at low copper ion concentrations.Article Citation - WoS: 12Citation - Scopus: 12Supercritical Fluid Reactive Deposition: a Process Intensification Technique for Synthesis of Nanostructured Materials(Elsevier, 2022) Yousefzadeh, Hamed; Akgün, Işık Sena; Barım, Şansım Bengisu; Sarı, Tarık Bercan; Eriş, Gamze; Uzunlar, Erdal; Bozbağ, Selmi Erim; Erkey, CanSupercritical fluid reactive deposition (SFRD) is a promising process intensification technique for synthesis of a wide variety of nanostructured materials. The enhanced mass transfer characteristics of supercritical fluids (SCFs) coupled with high solubilities of reducing gases in SCFs provide many advantages related to equipment size and time minimization over conventional techniques. Among SCFs, the emphasis has been placed on supercritical CO2 (scCO2) which is non-toxic, cheap and leaves no residue on the treated medium. Moreover, in SFRD, multiple processes such as dissolution, adsorption, reaction, and purification are combined in a single piece of equipment which is an excellent example of process integration for process intensification. In this review, the fundamental thermodynamic and kinetic aspects of the technology are described in detail. The studies in the literature on synthesis of a wide variety of nanostructured materials including supported nanoparticles, films, and ion-exchanged zeolites by SFRD are reviewed and summarized. The applications of these materials as catalysts and sensors are described. The review hopes to lead to further studies on further development of this technology for a wide variety of applications.
