    Quaternary Ammonium Functionalized Cellulose for Bromate Ion Removal: Structural Insights and Efficacy Evaluation
    (Wiley, 2025) Recepoğlu, Yaşar Kemal; Senver, Buse Aleyna; Recepoglu, Yasar Kemal; Arar, Ozgur; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology; 03. Faculty of Engineering; 03.02. Department of Chemical Engineering
    This study evaluates the potential of quaternary ammonium-modified cellulose as a biosorbent for bromate (BrO3-) removal from aqueous solutions. Elemental analysis and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) characterized the elemental composition and microstructural features of the biosorbent, whereas Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy elucidated its molecular structure. Experimental results revealed that BrO3- removal efficiency increased with the biosorbent dose, achieving approximately 58%, 78%, and 90% removal with 0.025, 0.05, and 0.2 g of sorbent, respectively. The removal was pH-dependent, with efficiencies of 25%, 45%, and 76% at pH 2, 4, and 10, respectively, and the optimal removal was within the pH range of 6-8. Kinetic studies demonstrated rapid sorption, achieving 91% removal within 3 min. The Langmuir sorption isotherm model provided an excellent fit to the experimental data (R 2 = 0.9987), indicating a maximum sorption capacity of 9.40 mg/g. Thermodynamic analyses confirmed a spontaneous and endothermic sorption process (triangle G degrees = -8.11 kJ/mol; triangle H degrees = +2.22 kJ/mol). Desorption studies showed >= 99.9% efficiency using 0.1-M H2SO4 and NaCl, with NaCl selected as the preferred regenerant to minimize acid consumption. The biosorbent retained over 90% removal efficiency across three regeneration cycles. These findings highlight the potential of quaternary ammonium-modified cellulose as a sustainable and efficient material for BrO3- removal from water systems.

    Quaternary Ammonium-Modified Cellulose: a Sustainable Strategy for Purifying Aqueous Solutions Contaminated With Sunset Yellow Dye
    (Elsevier, 2025) Recepoğlu, Yaşar Kemal; Recepoglu, Yasar Kemal; Arar, Ozgur; 03.02. Department of Chemical Engineering; 03. Faculty of Engineering; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology
    This study showcases the remarkable efficacy of quaternary ammonium-modified cellulose as a highly sustainable biosorbent for removing Sunset Yellow (SY) dye from water. Detailed analysis was conducted using infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy for structural changes and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) for morphological changes. A minimal yet highly effective dose of 0.05 g was identified through dedicated optimization experiments, achieving near-complete removal (99 %) of SY. The biosorbent demonstrated exceptional performance across a broad pH range (2-10), accomplishing remarkable removal within just 5 min. Langmuir modeling uncovered a monolayer sorption mechanism with a high maximum capacity (107.08 mg g- 1), and thermodynamic analysis affirmed the spontaneity and favorability of the sorption process. Noteworthy is the biosorbent's impressive regeneration capabilities (up to 95 %) using 1.0 M NaOH or HCl solutions and its sustained performance over three sorption-regeneration cycles, highlighting its exceptional stability and reusability. The modified cellulose exhibited remarkable resistance to common interfering ions (chloride, nitrate, and sulfate) at 10 and 100 mg L- 1 concentrations. These combined features position quaternary ammonium-modified cellulose as a promising, sustainable, and efficient option for dye wastewater treatment.
