In this study, the hydrogenation and pyrolysis behavior of Şırnak asphaltite, and the synergetic effect of increasing amount of liquid product obtained from steam distillation of Şırnak asphaltite and biomass and dry reforming were studied. For that purpose, Şırnak asphaltite samples were hydrogenated and pyrolyzed and the products are analyzed. For synergetic effect investigation, steam distillation of Şırnak asphaltite with and without the presence of pepper plant biomass was performed. Results show that hydrogenation of Şırnak asphaltite results in collection of important portions of alkanes in coal structure as liquid product and synergetic effect was observed in steam distillation of Şırnak asphaltite and pepper plant biomass. The tar component of the pyrolysis of biomass consisted mostly of aromatic compounds. In order to explore the valorization of tar from biomass, CO2 reforming was selected. As a model compound, benzene was selected to represent aromatics. Dry reforming of benzene was investigated in the presence of perovskite oxides. Results show that CO2 can be used as a feedstock for valorization of biomass derived tar.

Thermal characterization and model-free kinetics of biodiesel sample
Kök, Mustafa Verşan (2015-11-01)
In this study, combustion and pyrolysis behaviours of methanol route biodiesel were investigated using thermal analysis techniques known as simultaneous thermogravimetry and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) at different heating rates. Reaction regions, peak temperatures, mass loss and heat flow rates of the biodiesel sample are determined using TG-DTG and DSC data. It was found that as the heating rate of the reactions increased, peak temperatures of the reactions shifted higher temperatures, implyin...
Phase equilibrium of asymmetric systems by predictive equations of state models
Orbey, H; Balci, C; Guruz, GA (2002-03-06)
In this study the modified Wong-Sandler (WS), the modified Huron-Vidal second-order (MHV2), and the Orbey-Sandler (HVOS) mixing rules were used for phase equilibrium correlation of carbon dioxide in n-alkanes, alcohols and water systems. Their correlative and predictive capabilities were compared. In all of these calculations, the Peng-Robinson-Stryjek-Vera (PRSV) equation of state (EOS) was used. It was found that the correlation capacity of the WS mixing rule is better than the HVOS mixing rule. The MHV2 ...
Lactate and ethanol productions by Rhizopus oryzae ATCC 9363 and activities of related pyruvate branch point enzymes
Buyukkileci, Ali Oguz; Hamamcı, Haluk; Yucel, Meral (2006-11-01)
In Rhizopus oryzae cultivations, lactate production decreased and ethanol and biomass productions increased as inoculated spore concentration increased. Spore concentrations of 1x10(3) and 1x10(4) spores ml(-1) induced tightly packed clumps, whereas 1x10(5) and 1 X 10(6) spores ml(-1) induced filamentous growth.
Dry reforming of methane over CeO2 supported Ni, Co and Ni-Co catalysts
Ay, Hale; Üner, Deniz (2015-12-01)
Ceria supported Ni, Co monometallic and Ni-Co bimetallic catalysts were prepared by incipient wetness impregnation method, calcined at two different temperatures (700 degrees C and 900 degrees C) and tested for dry reforming of methane reaction at 700 degrees C. The activities of ceria-based Ni containing catalysts decreased with increasing calcination temperature accompanied by a decrease in coke deposition. While Ni/CeO2 and Ni-Co/CeO2 catalysts exhibited comparable high activities, Co/CeO2 catalysts exhi...
Spectroscopic ellipsometry characterization of PbWO4 single crystals
Delice, S.; Isik, M.; Hasanlı, Nızamı; Darvishov, N.H.; Bagiev, V.E. (2022-09-01)
© 2022 Elsevier B.V.Optical characterization of PbWO4 single crystals grown by Czochralski method was achieved in virtue of spectroscopic ellipsometry experiments carried out in the energy region of 1.0–5.6 eV at room temperature. Tetragonal scheelite structure with lattice parameters of a = b = 5.4619 Å and c = 12.0490 Å was determined for the bulk crystal utilizing from XRD analysis. Analyses of the ellipsometry data presented the photon energy dependencies of complex dielectric function of the crystal. T...
