Adsorption of Pb (Ii) Ions From Aqueous Solutions Onto Paliurus Spina-Christimill. Frutis and Seeds
(Parlar Scientific Publications, 2020) Savran, A.; Kul, A.R.; Kubilay, S.; Selcuk, N.C.
In this study, Paliurus spina-christi Mill, frutis and seeds (PSCFS) was used as an adsorbent for Pb(II) ions removal from water solutions. The effect of various experimental parameters was investigated using a batch adsorption technique. In the adsorption experimental, temperature, contact time and concentrations effects upon Pb (II) ions on PSCFS were thoroughly examined at pH 5.2. Results show that a temperature value of 45 °C is favorable for the adsorption of Pb (II) ions. The isothermal data could be well described by the Freundlich equation. The kinetic data fit well with the pseudo-second-order kinetic model. The adsorption capacity of PSCFS was found to be 14.97°1 mg g- 1 at 45 °C according to pseudo-second-order model data. Thermodynamic parameters such as activation energy (Ea) and change in the free energy (AG°), the enthalpy (AH°), and the entropy (AS°) were also evaluated. The all adsorption process was endothermic and spontaneous. The results indicate that PSCFS could be employed as low-cost materials for removal from water of Pb (II) ions. © by PSP.
The Adsorption of the 2,2 Dichlorovinylphosfate on Raw and Modified Bentonites
(2011) Yonten, V.; Kubilay, S.
This study aimed to investigate the adsorption of the 2,2 Dichlorovinylphosfate (DDVP) on raw and modified bentonite using High Pressure Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) and infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). The modified bentonite were prepared by adding HNO3 and Na2CO3. The Freundlich adsorption isotherm defines DDVP adsorption in aqueous and ethanol-aqueous solutions by raw and modified bentonite. The variables of temperature, time andpH were observed on adsorption of DDVP. Then maximum adsorption of DDVP capacity was measured on bentonite modified with HN03 in pH 3.0 and 40°C. The MBB clay used in experimental work played a major role on the adsorption of DDVP so MBB has better characteristics than other adsorbents and The Freundlich isotherms of MBB in aqueous ethanol solution was better than isotherms of aqueous solution for much better to adsorb of DDVP. © Medwell Journal, 2011.
Determination of the Surface Properties of Untreated and Chemically Treated Kaolinites by Inverse Gas Chromatography
(Maik Nauka/interperiodica/springer, 2006) Kubilay, S.; Guerkan, R.; Savran, A.; Yalcinkaya, Z.
Inverse gas chromatography is used to study the surface properties of the untreated and chemically treated kaolinite samples. Changes in the enthalpy of adsorption for a variety of probes and in the surface energy of clays are measured and the effect of modification of the natural clay after chemical treatment with Na2CO3 is determined. The surface energy of the natural clay increased by the modification due to an increase in the surface area. It can be concluded that the dispersive component of surface free energy, gamma(d)(s), decreases with temperature in the 200-275 degrees C temperature range for both samples. Temperature coefficients of gamma(d)(s) for untreated and modified kaolinites are -0.1185 and -0.3966 mJ/(m(2)degrees C) with the correlation coefficients (R-2) of 0.8479 and 0.965, respectively. From the retention data for polar probes at infinite dilution, information on the accessibility of surface sites to the probes and on the acid-base character of the surface is obtained. The specific free energy of adsorption, the specific enthalpy of adsorption (Delta H-sp), and the specific entropy of adsorption of polar probes on initial and modified kaolinites are determined. The Delta H-sp values correlated with the donor numbers and modified acceptor numbers of the probes to quantify the acidity (K-A) and basicity (K-D) parameters of clay surfaces. The values of K-A and K-D for initial and modified kaolinites are determined to be 0.1202 and 0.2803; 0.0130 and 0.0408 with the correlation coefficients of -0.9805 and -0.9782, respectively. The unmodified clay sample indicated a more acidic character, while the modified clay sample conferred a largely basic character. Consequently, the predominant surface basicity of the modified kaolinite agrees with expectation, hearing in mind the treatment with Na2CO3, taking into consideration that such a modification contributes to a decrease in the hydrophilicity of the surface and also results in the surface showing only weak Lewis acidity.

In this paper the dissolution and mechanism of tincal, sodium tetraborate decahydrate (Na2B4O710H2O), in ammonium carbonate solutions using the effects parameters of reaction temperature, solution concentration, solid to liquid ratio, particle size and stirring speed. The results showed that the dissolution rate increased with increasing solution concentration and reaction temperature and increased with decreasing particle size and solid to liquid ratio. It was also determined that stirring speed exerted no significant effect on dissolution rate.

Removal of Cu(Ii), Zn(Ii) and Co(Ii) Ions From Aqueous Solutions by Adsorption Onto Natural Bentonite
(Springer, 2007) Kubilay, S.; Gurkan, R.; Savran, A.; Sahan, T.
In this study, the removal of Cu(II), Zn(II) and Co(II) ions from aqueous solutions using the adsorption process onto natural bentonite has been investigated as a function of initial metal concentration, pH and temperature. In order to find out the effect of temperature on adsorption, the experiments were conducted at 20, 50, 75 and 90 degrees C. For all the metal cations studied, the maximum adsorption was observed at 20 degrees C. The batch method has been employed using initial metal concentrations in solution ranging from 15 to 70 mL(-1) at pH 3.0, 5.0, 7.0 and 9.0. A flame atomic absorption spectrometer was used for measuring the heavy metal concentrations before and after adsorption. The percentage adsorption and distribution coefficients (K-d) were determined for the adsorption system as a function of adsorbate concentration. In the ion exchange evaluation part of the study, it is determined that in every concentration range, adsorption ratios of bentonitic clay-heavy metal cations match to Langmuir, Freundlich and Dubinin-Kaganer-Radushkevich (DKR) adsorption isotherm data, adding to that every cation exchange capacity of metals has been calculated. It is shown that the bentonite is sensitive to pH changes, so that the amounts of heavy metal cations adsorbed increase as pH increase in adsorbent-adsorbate system. It is evident that the adsorption phenomena depend on the surface charge density of adsorbent and hydrated ion diameter depending upon the solution pH. According to the adsorption equilibrium studies, the selectivity order can be given as Zn2+ > Cu2+ > Co2+. These results show that bentonitic clay hold great potential to remove the relevant heavy metal cations from industrial wastewater. Also, from the results of the thermodynamic analysis, standard free energy Delta G(0), standard enthalpy Delta H-0 and standard entropy Delta S-0 of the absorption process were calculated.
