Fluidized bed combustion (FBC) ashes containing significant amount of free CaO and CaSO4 in addition to valuable inorganic acidic oxide ingredients such as SiO2, Fe2O3 and Al2O3 can be utilized as potential raw materials in the production of nonexpansive belite-rich calcium sulfoaluminate cement which is one of the special cement type of sulfoaluminate-belite cements having performance characteristics similar to those of ordinary portland cement besides lower energy requirements and CO2 emissions during manufacturing. Therefore, in this thesis study, possibility of producing non-expansive belite-rich calcium sulfoaluminate cement by adding FBC ashes in various proportions to the raw meal was investigated. For this purpose, a raw meal composed a mixture of limestone, bauxite, gypsum together with 10 wt % bottom ash and 15 wt % baghouse filter ash was prepared. It was sintered in a laboratory scale muffle furnace at temperatures of 1200, 1250 and 1300 °C for various holding times. The results of chemical and mineralogical analysis as well as microscopic examination reveal that FBC ashes have the potential to be used in the raw meal due to the presence of characteristic mineral phases of this type of cements, i.e. yeelimite, larnite, ferrite and anhydrite, in the sample obtained at optimum sintering temperature of 1250 °C for 60 min.

Synthesis of special cement with fluidised bed combustion ashes
Selçuk Yüce, Nihal; Soner, I.; Selçuk, Emre (Thomas Telford Ltd., 2010-04-01)
Fluidised bed combustion (FBC) ashes containing a significant amount of free calcium oxide and calcium sulfate in addition to valuable inorganic acidic oxide ingredients such as silicon oxide, ferric oxide and aluminium oxide can be utilised as potential raw materials in the production of non-expansive belite-rich calcium sulfoaluminate cement, which is one of the special cement types having performance characteristics similar to those of ordinary Portland cement in addition to having lower energy requireme...
Utilization of fly ash from fluidized bed combustion of a Turkish lignite in production of blended cements
Kürkçü, Mehmet; Selçuk, Nevin; Department of Chemical Engineering (2006)
Fly ashes generated from fluidized bed combustion of low calorific value, high ash content Turkish lignites are characterized by high content of acidic oxides, such as SiO2, Al2O3 and Fe2O3, varying in the range 50-70%. However, there exists no study for the investigation of the possibility of using these ashes as concrete admixture. Therefore, in this study, characterization of fly ashes from fluidized bed combustion of a Turkish lignite and evaluation of these fly ashes as a substitute for Portland cement...
Utilization of pretreated molasses for serine alkaline protease production with recombinant Bacillus species
Calik, G; Pehlivan, N; Kalender, N; Ozdamar, TH; Çalık, Pınar (Informa UK Limited, 2003-05-01)
Recombinant Bacillus amyloliquefaciens, Bacillus cereus, Bacillus subtilis , and Bacillus licheniformis were used for the production of serine alkaline protease (SAP) utilizing chemically and/or physically pretreated molasses. The highest enzyme activity was obtained with r- Bacillus subtilis , with the complex medium involving physically treated molasses having 20 kg m(-3) initial sucrose concentration in small-scale, agitation- and heating rate-controlled bioreactors at t=63 h. Effects of oxygen transfer ...
Synthesis and Characterization of Aluminum Containing Silica Aerogel Catalysts for Degradation of PLA
Sivri, Seda; Dilek Hacıhabiboğlu, Çerağ; Sezgi, Naime Aslı (Walter de Gruyter GmbH, 2019-05-01)
Aluminum loaded silica aerogel based catalysts were synthesized by impregnation of aluminum into silica aerogel produced using sol-gel method in different aluminum loadings (2.5-15 wt%) to investigate their performances in degradation of polylactic acid (PLA).
Study of adsorption characteristics of long chain alkyl amine and petroleum sulfonate on silicates by electrokinetic potential, microflotation, FTIR, and AFM analyses
ÖZÜN, Savaş; Atalay, M. Umit; Demirci, Şahinde (Informa UK Limited, 2019-05-19)
The long-chain alkyl amines and petroleum sulfonates are mostly used to remove unwanted minerals from feldspar ores in acidic pHs. In this study, their adsorption characteristics on pure albite and quartz were investigated by electrokinetic potential measurements, microflotation tests, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and atomic force microscopy studies. According to the results, amine had strong influence on zeta potentials of both albite and quartz turning them positive and resulting over 90% flot...
