    Renewable-Based Treatment Solution of Reactive Blue 21 Dye on Fly Ash as Low-Cost and Sustainable Adsorbent
    (Elsevier, 2024) Kobya, Mehmet; Dolaz, Mustafa; Goren, Aysegul Yagmur
    This study investigated the removal of Reactive Blue 21 (RB 21) dye from aqueous solutions by adsorption, evaluating the waste fly ash (FA). The effects of the parameters, such as initial dye concentration (100-750 mg/ L), initial pH (2.0-8.0), adsorbent dose (1.0-4.0 g/L), and temperature (298-323 K) on the adsorption process were investigated. The optimum initial pH value was 2.0 for the highest RB21 dye removal (75.2 mg/g). At optimized conditions (pH 2.0, an adsorbent dosage of 1.0 g/L, a dye concentration of 750 mg/L, and an equilibrium time of 72 h), the highest adsorption capacity was found to be 105.2 mg/g. Moreover, the results of the kinetic studies fitted the pseudo-second-order kinetic model. Equilibrium data were best represented by the Langmuir isotherm model, with a maximum monolayer adsorption capacity of 103.41 mg/g at 323 K. Delta G0ads values were negative and varied from 11.64 to 9.50 kJ/mol in the temperature range of 298-323 K, the values of enthalpy (Delta Ho ads) and entropy (Delta So ads) of thermodynamics parameters were calculated as 37.62 kJ/mol and 86.67 J/mol K, respectively, indicating that this process was endothermic. Furthermore, the adsorbent costs for powdered activated carbon (PAC) and FA to remove 1 kg of RB 21 dye from aqueous solutions are calculated as 2.52 U.S. $ and 0.34 U.S. $, respectively. It is seen that the cost of FA is approximately 7.4 times lower than PAC. The results showed that FA, a low-cost industrial waste, was promising for the adsorption of RB 21 from aqueous solutions.

    Mitigation of Organophosphate Pesticide Pollution in Agricultural Watersheds
    (Elsevier, 2020) Şahin, Çağrı; Karpuzcu, M. Ekrem
    Adsorption and biodegradation processes for four organophosphate pesticides (chiorpyrifos, diazinon, fenthion, dichlorvos) in wetlands and agricultural drains in Meric-Ergene Basin, Turkey have been investigated. K-oc (organic carbon normalized partition coefficient) values for all pesticides except diazinon were higher in more aromatic Pamuklu Drain sediments, indicating the possible influence of aromaticity on the extent of adsorption. The average half-lives of pesticides in Gala Lake sediments and Pamuklu agricultural drain sediments ranged from 2.25 to 69.31 days with chlorpyrifos exhibiting the slowest biotransformation rate and dichlorvos having the fastest biotransforrnation rate. The presence of humic substances and hydroperiod of wetlands have been identified as possible factors that affected the behavior of organophosphate pesticides in this study. The results from this study provide insight into the constructed wetland design offered for the mitigation of organophosphate pesticides in the basin. (C) 2019 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

    Polybrominated Diphenyl Ethers (pbdes) in Background Air Around the Aegean: Implications for Phase Partitioning and Size Distribution
    (Springer Verlag, 2017) Besis, Athanasios; Lammel, Gerhard; Kukucka, Petr; Samara, Constantini; Sofuoğlu, Aysun; Dumanoğlu, Yetkin; Eleftheriadis, Kostas; Kouvarakis, Giorgos; Sofuoğlu, Sait Cemil; Vassilatou, Vassiliki; Voutsa, Dimitra
    The occurrence and atmospheric behavior of tri- to deca-polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) were investigated during a 2-week campaign concurrently conducted in July 2012 at four background sites around the Aegean Sea. The study focused on the gas/particle (G/P) partitioning at three sites (Ag. Paraskevi/central Greece/suburban, Finokalia/southern Greece/remote coastal, and Urla/Turkey/rural coastal) and on the size distribution at two sites (Neochorouda/northern Greece/rural inland and Finokalia/southern Greece/remote coastal). The lowest mean total (G + P) concentrations of ∑7PBDE (BDE-28, BDE-47, BDE-66, BDE-99, BDE-100, BDE-153, BDE-154) and BDE-209 (0.81 and 0.95 pg m−3, respectively) were found at the remote site Finokalia. Partitioning coefficients, KP, were calculated, and their linear relationships with ambient temperature and the physicochemical properties of the analyzed PBDE congeners, i.e., the subcooled liquid pressure (PL°) and the octanol-air partition coefficient (KOA), were investigated. The equilibrium adsorption (PL°-based) and absorption (KOA-based) models, as well as a steady-state absorption model including an equilibrium and a non-equilibrium term, both being functions of log KOA, were used to predict the fraction Φ of PBDEs associated with the particle phase. The steady-state model proved to be superior to predict G/P partitioning of BDE-209. The distribution of particle-bound PBDEs across size fractions < 0.95, 0.95–1.5, 1.5–3.0, 3.0–7.2, and > 7.2 μm indicated a positive correlation between the mass median aerodynamic diameter and log PL° for the less brominated congeners, whereas a negative correlation was observed for the high brominated congeners. The potential source regions of PBDEs were acknowledged as a combination of long-range transport with short-distance sources.

    Dye Adsorption Behavior of Luffa Cylindrica Fibers
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2008) Demir, Hasan; Top, Ayben; Balköse, Devrim; Ülkü, Semra
    Using natural Luffa cylindrica fibers as adsorbent removal of methylene blue dye from aqueous solutions at different temperatures and dye concentrations was investigated in this study. Thermodynamics and kinetics of adsorption were also investigated. The adsorption isotherms could be well defined with Langmuir model instead of Freundlich model. The thermodynamic parameters of methylene blue (MB) adsorption indicated that the adsorption is exothermic and spontaneous. The average MB adsorption capacity was found out as 49 mg/g and average BET surface area of fibers was calculated as 123 m2/g.

    A Characterization Study of Some Aspects of the Adsorption of Aqueous Co2+ Ions on a Natural Bentonite Clay
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2006) Shahwan, Talal; Erten, Hasan N.; Ünügür, S.
    The natural bentonite used in this study contained montmorillonite in addition to low cristobalite. The uptake of aqueous Co2+ ions was investigated as a function of time, concentration, and temperature. In addition, the change in the interlayer space of montmorillonite was analyzed using XRPD, and the distribution of fixed Co2+ ions on the heterogeneous clay surface was recorded using EDS mapping. The sorbed amount of Co2+ appeared to closely follow Freundlich isotherm, with the sorption process showing apparent endothermic behavior. The relevance of the apparent Δ Ho values is briefly discussed. Analysis of the Co-sorbed bentonite samples using SEM/EDS showed that the montmorillonite fraction in the mineral was more effective in Co2+ fixation than the cristobalite fraction. XRPD analysis demonstrated that the interlayer space of montmorillonite was slightly modified at the end of sorption.

    Kinetic Estimation of the Adsorbate Distribution on the Surface From Adsorbed Amounts
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2006) Polat, Mehmet
    A phenomenological multilayer adsorption model for a well-dispersed, homogeneous, nonporous adsorbent and a molecular adsorbate is presented. The model provides explicit kinetic expressions associating the adsorbed amounts to the fraction of the surface occupied and reduces to the first- and second-order adsorption models for special cases. Parameters of the model are a pair of true rate constants related to the adsorbate-adsorbent and adsorbate-surface adsorbate affinities. A general graphical procedure and analytical equations for special cases are provided to estimate the rate constants from kinetic adsorption data. Data from the adsorption of sodium stearate onto α-alumina from water were used to test the model. The predicted values of the rate constants suggested that the stearate was distributed homogeneously on the alumina surface and essentially adsorbed as a monolayer before starting to form the second layer.

    A Radiotracer Study of the Adsorption Behavior of Aqueous Ba2+ Ions on Nanoparticles of Zero-Valent Iron
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2007) Çelebi, O.; Üzüm, Çağrı; Shahwan, Talal.; Erten, Hasan N
    Recently, iron nanoparticles are increasingly being tested as adsorbents for various types of organic and inorganic pollutants. In this study, nanoparticles of zero-valent iron (NZVI) synthesized under atmospheric conditions were employed for the removal of Ba2+ ions in a concentration range 10-3 to 10-6 M. Throughout the study, 133Ba was used as a tracer to study the effects of time, concentration, and temperature. The obtained data was analyzed using various kinetic models and adsorption isotherms. Pseudo-second-order kinetics and Dubinin-Radushkevich isotherm model provided the best correlation with the obtained data. Observed thermodynamic parameters showed that the process is exothermic and hence enthalpy-driven.
