The possibility of decreasing chlorine content of a zinc dress containing 1.40% chlorine by washing with distilled water and sodium carbonate was investigated in this study. The dress sample was obtained from CINKUR which is the only primary zinc producer in Turkey. Temperature, time and solid-liquid ratio were the investigated variables in distilled water washing experiments. In addition to these variables, the effect of sodium carbonate amount was also studied in sodium carbonate washing experiments. The results showed that there was no advantage of using sodium carbonate in chlorine removal. Washing the zinc dress simply with distilled water at 95 degrees C for a short period of time such as half an hour and at a suitable solid-liquid ratio between 1:2-1:10 removed about 80% chlorine found in the dress. Chlorine content decreased from 1.40% to about 0.20-0.30% in the dress.

Characterization of effluents from chlorine dioxide substitution bleaching and oxygen-reinforced extraction Yetiş, Ülkü; Gokcay, CF; Sahin, SM (1997-01-01) The effects of chlorine dioxide substitution for elemental chlorine in the chlorination stage, aimed at the minimization of chlorinated organics and subsequent oxygen reinforcement in the proceeding extraction stage on the characteristics of bleaching effluents have been examined. The characteristics of the effluents were assessed in terms of molecular weight distribution by gel filtration, so that alternatives for the treatment of these effluents can be proposed. The analysis of chlorination and extraction...
Production of lightweight aerated alkali-activated slag pastes using hydrogen peroxide Sahin, Murat; Erdoğan, Sinan Turhan; Bayer, Özgür (Elsevier BV, 2018-08-30) This study investigated the production of lightweight aerated alkali-activated slag pastes (LAAASP) using hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). A mixture of sodium hydroxide and sodium silicate solution was used for the activation of slag. Physical, mechanical, and thermal properties of samples cured under different curing conditions were investigated. Various water-to-slag ratios (W/S) and H2O2 contents were used to explore the expansion mechanism of fresh mixtures and to investigate their effect on apparent density. ...
The impact of alkali pretreatment and post-pretreatment conditioning on the surface properties of rice straw affecting cellulose accessibility to cellulases KARUNA, Nardrapee; ZHANG, LU; WALTON, Jeffrey H.; Couturier, Marie; Öztop, Halil Mecit; Master, Emma R.; MCCARTHY, Michael J.; JEOH, Tina (Elsevier BV, 2014-09-01) Rice straw was pretreated with sodium hydroxide and subsequently conditioned to reduce the pH to 5-6 by either: (1) extensive water washing or (2) acidification with hydrochloric acid then water washing. Alkali pretreatment improved the enzymatic digestibility of rice straw by increasing the cellulose accessibility to cellulases. However, acidification after pretreatment reversed the gains in cellulose accessibility to cellulases and enzymatic digestibility due to precipitation of solubilized compounds. Sur...
MOLTEN SALT ELECTROLYSIS OF MgCl2 IN A CELL WITH RAPID CHLORINE REMOVAL FEATURE Demirci, Gokhan; Karakaya, İshak (2012-03-15) An experimental electrolytic magnesium production cell was designed to remove chlorine gas from the electrolyte rapidly and demonstrate the beneficial effects of reduced chlorine dissolution into the molten salt electrolyte. The back reaction that is the main cause of current losses in electrolytic magnesium production was reduced as a result of effective separation of electrode products and decreased contact time of chlorine gas with the electrolyte. Moreover, smaller inter electrode distances employed and...
Performance evaluation of Cappadocian tuffs treated with alcohol dispersion of calcium hydroxide nano-particles Çalışkan, Berkay Barış; Tavukçuoğlu, Ayşe; Saltık, Emine Nevin; Department of Building Science in Architecture (2022-12-08) In this study, the effect of treatment with alcohol dispersion of calcium hydroxide Ca(OH)2 nanoparticles on controlling excessive water absorption and capillary water suction properties of Cappadocian tuffs was investigated extensively. For this purpose, two tuff types, Göreme Rock (CYT) and Cappadocian Rose (CPT), obtained from a quarry near Avanos-Nevşehir, were examined. Laboratory tests were conducted concerning their basic physical, hygric, mechanical, microstructural, and mineralogical properties bef...
