    Content and mobility behavior of iron and manganese in asphaltite burning residue using ICP-OES
    (Perkin - Elmer Corp., 2014) Aydin I.; Gunduz B.; Aydin F.; Akba O.; Saydut A.; Hamamci C.
    The determination of inorganic pollutants leaching from solid waste, such as coal, asphaltite, oil shale, and ash, is an important topic for industrial applications and solid waste management. This study presents the concentration and fractionation of iron (Fe) and manganese (Mn) in asphaltite burning residue (ABR) and their determination by inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES). A modified Tessier sequential extraction method was used for the fractionation of Fe and Mn in four forms (exchangeable, carbonates, bound to organic and sulfide, and residual content). Investigations on the Fe and Mn chemical fractions and their environmental mobility in ash solution systems were carried out. It was found that Mn in ABR (from Harbul-Silopi, Turkey) occurs in the following fractions: exchangeable (13.56%), associated with carbonates (28.94%), associated with organic matter and sulfides (17.48%), and residual content (40.08%). Fe occurs in the following fractions: exchangeable (11.11%), carbonates (27.68%), organic matter and sulfides (23.39%), and residual content (37.82%). Among these fractions, the exchangeable and carbonate-bound fractions are unstable and prone to leach out, while the organic matter-bound fractions and the residual fractions are considered to be relatively stable and of low bioavailability. Thw mobility fractions of Fe contain 38.79% and of Mn contain 42.50% of their total concentration in ABR under normal environmental conditions.

    Effect of homogeneous alkaline catalyst type on biodiesel production from soybean
    (National Institute of Science Communication and Information Resources (NISCAIR), 2016) Saydut A.; Kafadar A.B.; Aydin F.; Erdogan S.; Kaya C.; Hamamci C.
    Transesterification or alcoholysis is the most commonly applied method for biodiesel production. A catalyst is needed to improve the transesterification reaction and yield. The present study used soybean oil as the raw oil to mix with methanol and four strong alkali catalysts (NaOH, KOH, CH3ONa & CH3OK) to undergo a transesterification reaction. Transesterification was carried out using 100% excess alcohol, i.e., molar ratio of alcohol to soybean oil was 6:1, and catalyst concentration of 1% at 60°C. Alkali metal alkoxides were found to be more effective transesterification catalysts compared to hydroxides. Sodium methoxide was the most efficient catalyst, although KOH and NaOH could also be used because they are cheaper and are used widely in large scale processing.
