Pyrolysis and CO(2)-gasification behavior of lignites representing four different deposits in Turkey were investigated by Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA) in the temperature range from 750 degrees C to 1000 degrees C. The rates of pyrolysis and CO(2)-gasification were evaluated from the corresponding TGA profiles. As expected, maximum pyrolysis rates for each coal were shown to be constant with respect to the final carbonization temperature. Lignites used in this study are from the tertiary period, chosen from major coal deposits in Turkey and their carbon contents are in the range of 60-70% (daf) based on ultimate analysis. They have shown different gasification reactivities under similar conditions and the reactivity sequence was found to be temperature dependent.

Magnetic ordering in two ferromagnetic sublattices of two mixed-valence iron(II)-iron(III) metal formate frameworks Yurtseven, Hasan Hamit (2019-11-01) Temperature dependence of magnetization (M) is calculated for two mixed-valence iron(II) - iron(III) metal formate frameworks (MOFs) with the two ferromagnetic sublattices below T-comp (compensation temperature) at 100 Oe by the molecular field theory. Temperature dependence of magnetization (M-T) is analyzed between T(comp )and T-ord = 39K (ordering temperature) by the power-law formula using the literature data for those compounds. Power-law analysis is also carried out for the field dependence of magneti...
Evaluation of Turkish oil shales - Thermal analysis approach Kök, Mustafa Verşan (2001-12-01) In this research, thermal characteristics of three Turkish oil shales (Himmetoglu, Beypazari and Hatuldag) were studied by thermal analysis techniques (differential scanning calorimetry, thermogravimetry and pressurised differential scanning calorimetry). Two distinct exothermic peaks were identified in all experiments known as low-temperature oxidation and high-temperature oxidation reaction regions. Kinetic data were analysed by Arrhenius, and Coats and Redfern models and the results are discussed.
Analysis of polymers using evolved-gas and direct-pyrolysis techniques Fares, Mohammed M.; Yalcin, Talat; Hacaloğlu, Jale; Gungor, Atilla; Suzer, Sefik (1994-12-01) Thermal analysis of polystyrene, poly(p-methylstyrene) and poly(a-methylstyrene) has been carried out using evolved-gas analysis by infrared and mass spectrometry, and directpyrolysis analysis by mass spectrometric techniques. Evolved-gas analysis, both by infrared and mass spectrometry, reveals features due mainly to the corresponding monomers or stable, volatile, and low relative molecular mass degradation products. In direct-pyrolysis mass spectrometry, however, primary decomposition products and heavier...
Pyrolysis, combustion and gasification studies of different sized coal particles using TGA-MS Jayaraman, Kandasamy; Kök, Mustafa Verşan; Gokalp, Iskender (2017-10-01) In this research, thermogravimetric and mass-spectrometric (TG-MS) analysis and kinetics of different sized (60 mu m,800 mu m, and 3 mm) Saray (Turkish origin) coal is examined at various combustion temperature ranges. Experiments are performed at the heating rate of 40 degrees C/min in an argon atmosphere up to combustion/gasification temperatures (850-1150 degrees C), which, is close to the conditions of fluidized bed systems for high ash coal applications. The combustion tests are performed at isothermal...
Comparative Pyrolysis and Combustion Kinetics of Oil Shales Kök, Mustafa Verşan (2000-02-01) In this research, thermal characteristics and kinetic parameters of eight Turkish oil shale samples were determined by thermogravimetry (TG/DTG) at non-isothermal heating conditions both for pyrolysis and combustion processes. A general computer program was developed and the methods are compared with regard to their accuracy and the ease of interpretation of the kinetics of thermal decomposition. Activation energies of the samples were determined by five different methods and the results are discussed.
