In the present study. polyethersulfone (PES) membranes on a macroporous alumina support was prepared by solvent-deposition method to separate H-2/CH4 mixture. The membrane solution viscosities were determined in order to understand the effect of PES concentration on the formation of selective membranes over a support. Supported PES membranes were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and single gas permeability measurements of H-2 and CH4. The membrane casting solution with 20% PES concentration provided the formation of defecdess single-layer supported membrane. At lower concentrations. the penetration of membrane casting solution into the pores of support was prevented by using intermediate layer. hence the prepared 2-layered membrane performance was improved. H-2/CH4 ideal selectivity of best membrane exhibited is 73 at 35 degrees C. which shows promise for H-2/Hydrocarbon separation.

Indigo dyeing wastewater reclamation by membrane-based filtration and coagulation processes
Unlu, M.; Yukseler, H.; Yetiş, Ülkü (Elsevier BV, 2009-05-15)
In the present study. the possibility to reuse the indigo dyeing rinsing wastewater originating from a denim textile mill was investigated. Coagulation and filtration processes were selected as the pretreatment alternatives and applied to dyeing wastewater samples. Both physicochemical pretreatment alternatives and nanofiltration technique were optimized to produce an effluent satisfying the reuse criteria for the textile industry. The results showed that coagulation is not all effective and efficient pretr...
Powder metallurgy of high density W-Ni-Cu alloys
Çalışkan, Necmettin Kaan; Bor, Şakir; Department of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering (2006)
In the present study; the effects of the powder metallurgical parameters such as the mixing method, compaction pressure, initial tungsten (W) particle size, composition, sintering temperature and sintering time on the sintering behavior of selected high density W-Ni-Cu alloys were investigated. The alloys were produced through conventional powder metallurgy route of mixing, cold compaction and sintering. The total solute (Ni-Cu) content in the produced alloys was kept constant at 10 wt%, while the copper co...
Modelling Energy Consumption of the Republic of Serbia using Linear Regression and Artificial Neural Network Technique
Protic, Milan; Fathurrahman, Fahman; Raos, Miomir (Mechanical Engineering Faculty in Slavonski Brod, 2019-02-01)
The objectives of the study are twofold. First, we aim to examine the most influential socio-economic indicators to explain energy consumption in Republic of Serbia. The second objective is to develop models that are able to predict the future energy consumption in the Republic of Serbia. This could be the first important step towards proper energy management in the country. Several potential socio-economic indicators are selected to be the independent variables. Regression analysis is conducted to select t...
Alu insertion polymorphisms in Anatolian Turks
Dinç, Havva; Togan, İnci Zehra; Department of Biological Sciences (2003)
In the present study; ten autosomal human-specific Alu insertion polymorphisms; ACE, APO, A25, B65, D1, FXIIIB, HS4.32, HS4.69, PV92 and TPA25 were analyzed in approximately 100 unrelated individuals from Anatolia. Alu insertion polymorphisms offer several advantages over other nuclear DNA polymorphisms for human evolution studies. The frequencies of the ten biallelic Alu insertions in Anatolians were calculated and all systems were found to be in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (p>0.05). By combining the result...
Investigation of the significance of periodicity information in speaker identification
Gürsoy, Seçil; Çiloğlu, Tolga; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2008)
In this thesis; general feature selection methods and especially the use of periodicity and aperiodicity information in speaker verification task is searched. A software system is constructed to obtain periodicity and aperiodicity information from speech. Periodicity and aperiodicity information is obtained by using a 16 channel filterbank and analyzing channel outputs frame by frame according to the pitch of that frame. Pitch value of a frame is also found by using periodicity algorithms. Parzen window (ke...
