    Evaluation of optimum carbonization conditions of the blended domestic polymeric waste, biomass and lignite in the presence of catalyst by Taguchi and ANOVA optimization analysis
    (Elsevier, 2022) Basar, Canan Akmil; Korkmaz, Aydan Aksogan; Onal, Yunus; Utku, Tugba
    In this work, the effects of blending mass ratio, pyrolysis temperature, pyrolysis time, heating rate, and amount of catalyst on the pyrolysis of the blended lignite (EL), pistachio shell (PS) and domestic wastes (DW) were investigated. The influence of experimental parameters on the char, liquid and gas efficiency was statistically evaluated by the Taguchi method and ANOVA analysis. The optimum experimental conditions is a1b1c2d1e3, a3b1c1d1e2, a2b3c2d3e2 for liquid efficiency, char efficiency and gas efficiency respectively. The amount of catalyst was found to be the most effective parameter for solid efficiency and the mass ratio for both liquid and gas efficiency. The char, liquid and gas efficiencys estimated by the Taguchi method under optimum experimental conditions are 39.58%, 18.5% and 47.04%, respectively. The char efficiency of 42.54%, liquid efficiency of 19.78% and gas efficiency of 49.83% were determined under optimum experimental conditions obtained by the Taguchi method. Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) was also used to determine the mean response magnitudes of each controllable process parameter. ANOVA analysis results support the results found by the Taguchi method. In the carbonization process, FTIR, XRD and SEM analyzes were performed to determine the structural change of the solid product depending on the temperature.

    Implementation of Taguchi method, ANOVA and regression analyses to enhance char yield by carbonization in lignite-biomass blended
    (Taylor & Francis Inc, 2024) Korkmaz, Aydan Aksogan; Toptas, Yeliz
    Energy is a basic need for modern societies. Renewable energy refers to producing and using energy without harming the environment and without consuming resources. The transition to renewable and sustainable energy can provide many environmental, economic and social benefits. Academic research plays an important role in achieving this transition. Sustainable energy is critical to protecting the environment, promoting economic development and supporting social improvements. The transition to sustainable energy is a necessity for the future of humanity. For this purpose, in this study, lignite and biomass (apricot kernel shell) carbonization experiments were carried out under different conditions. Mixing ratio (Lignite/Biomass (w/w 1:1, 1:2, 1:3)), temperature (400 degrees C, 500 degrees C, 600 degrees C) and heating rate (10 degrees C/min, 30 degrees C/min, 50 degrees C/min) were determined as variable parameters. Taguchi's experimental design was used to optimize the parameters. The orthogonal array design plan was determined as L9 according to the available variables (33 x 33). Since the study aimed to obtain clean solid fuel, char yields were taken into account from the results. Signal-to-noise (S/N) ratios were calculated based on the larger the better condition. As a result of the carbonization experiments performed under Taguchi optimization conditions, it was determined that the S/N ratio was 31.73 and the char yield was 40.19%. Since the estimated char yield with the Taguchi method was 38.85%, it was concluded that the optimization was achieved with 96.67% accuracy. The test parameters satisfying these conditions were determined as 1:1 lignite/biomass mixing ratio, 400 degrees C temperature and 30 degrees C/min heating rate. As a result of the ANOVA analysis, it was seen that the heating rate did not have a significant effect on these parameters. In contrast, the temperature and mixing ratio were important variables. Also, regression analysis (linear and quadratic) was used in this study to calculate the equations for the prediction of char yield. It was concluded that the linear regression model was more successful in estimating the char yield.

    Interpretation of combustion properties of raw-pyrolyzed lignite with kinetic data
    (Taylor & Francis Inc, 2023) Korkmaz, Aydan Aksogan; Akbulut, Yeliz
    This study investigated the pyrolysis properties and kinetic behavior of Ermenek (Konya, Turkey) lignite. For this purpose, lignite was carbonized at 500 degrees C and different heating rates (5, 10, 15, and 20 degrees C/min). Proximate, elemental, XRF, and TGA-DTA lignite and chars were performed. Thermal analyses were performed at a heating rate of 10 degrees C/min from room temperature to 1000 degrees C and an inert (N-2) gas flow of 50 ml/min. Peak temperatures and mass losses were determined from the data obtained from the experiments. By examining the thermogram curves, three different temperature regions depended on moisture loss, the release of volatile matter, and fixed carbon combustion. In addition, from these data, kinetic calculations were performed using Arrhenius and Coats-Redfern approaches, and the apparent activation energies were calculated for each region. The activation energy values calculated according to the Coats-Redfern kinetic model are significantly lower than those calculated according to the Arrhenius kinetic model. The highest activation energies calculated were: for Region 1 and Region 2 at 5 degrees C/min heating rate and for Region 3 at 10 degrees C/min heating rate.

    Sustainable approach to dye adsorption: hemp-based activated carbon as an effective adsorbent
    (Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2024) Toptas, Yeliz; Yavuz, Bahar; Korkmaz, Aydan Aksogan; Onal, Yunus
    In industry, the use of dyes that threaten human health is increasing day by day. RB 19 (Reactive Blue 19, Remazol brilliant blue R), one of the most common dyes that adversely affect natural life, is the subject of this article. In this article, the waste parts of the hemp plant (root, stem and other) were evaluated for use in scientific studies. Hemp wastes were carbonised at 500 degrees C at a heating rate of 10 degrees C/min for 1 hour in the N2 atmosphere. Chemical activation was then carried out with 1:4 potassium hydroxide (KOH) at 800 degrees C under the same conditions. Activated carbon (AC) used as an adsorbent was characterised by elemental analysis (73.3% C, 0.3% H, 0.46% N, 0.02% S and 25.92% O), XRD, SEM, BET and FT-IR analysis. Activated carbon (AC) with 850 mu m size, 1858.70 m2/g surface area was obtained by chemical activation of carbonised hemp waste with KOH. SEM images showed that the activated carbon is structurally similar to a honeycomb. Kinetic parameters were analysed with six different equations (Intra Particle Diffusion, Pseudo First, Pseudo Second, Elovich, Avrami, Bangham) and adsorption mechanism with eight different equations (Henry, Langmuir, Freundlich, Temkin, Dubinin-Radushkevich, Koble-Corrigan, Flory-Huggins, Harkin-Jura). According to the calculated diffusion coefficient (19.299), it is concluded that diffusion is externally controlled. The Intra-Particle Diffusion constant (75.34) indicated that the outer adsorption layer of activated carbon was thick. When the correlation coefficients of the equations were examined according to the kinetic analysis results, the highest correlation coefficient was observed in the Pseudo-First kinetic model for all temperatures. However, it was determined that it also fits the Bangham and Avrami models. Since Bangham and Avrami models have high regression coefficients (0.96-0.99), it can be said that adsorption also fits these models. Also, the negative Gibbs Free Energy values indicate that adsorption can occur spontaneously and is thermodynamically favourable.
