This study investigated the effect of sequential oxidative (ozonolysis) pretreatment and enzymatic hydrolysis of hazelnut shells on production of fermentable sugars. Two factors (ozone concentration and pretreatment time), which were determined to be significant by the Box-Behnken response surface methodology, were further maximized for total lignin removal, solid recovery, and total reducing sugar yield via enzymatic hydrolysis of the pretreated biomass using full-factorial design. The ozonolysis was performed by passing 30, 40, and 50 mg/L of ozone gas through a packed bed of ground hazelnut shells for up to 120 min at a flow rate of 0.25 L/min. The highest lignin reduction (20.5%) was obtained in the shells with 30% moisture content subjected to ozone concentration of 50 mg/L for 120 min, which corresponded to a high biomass recovery (94%). The reducing sugar yield also increased from 119.9 mg/g dry untreated biomass to 284.6 mg/g dry untreated biomass for hazelnut shells ozonated at 30 mg/L for 60 min. Thus, these results indicate remarkable benefits of ozonolysis during pretreatment of hazelnut shells.

Characterization of thermoluminescence kinetic parameters of beta irradiated B doped Ca-5(PO4)(3)OH powder obtained from eggshell Depci, T.; Oglakci, M.; Sezer, Selda; YÜCEL, AYTAÇ; DOĞAN, TAMER; Souadi, G.; TOPAKSU, MUSTAFA; Can, N. (2021-07-01) In this study, we have synthesized B doped Ca5(PO4)3OH (HAP) by a sonication chemical method. The thermoluminescence (TL) properties of the family of synthesized samples (B doped Ca5(PO4)3OH (HAP) were investigated using an IRSL-TL 565 nm filter. This gave the highest TL intensity of each phosphor after 2 Gy beta-irradiation. Three TL glow peaks of B doped Ca5(PO4)3OH (HAP) are centered at around 84, 208 and 324 degrees C (with a heating rate of 2 degrees Cs-1). The trapping parameters such as activation en...
A sequential classification algorithm for autoregressive processes Otlu, Güneş; Candan, Çağatay; Çiloğlu, Tolga; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2011) This study aims to present a sequential method for the classification of the autoregressive processes. Different from the conventional detectors having fixed sample size, the method uses Wald’s sequential probability ratio test and has a variable sample size. It is shown that the suggested method produces the classification decisions much earlier than fixed sample size alternative on the average. The proposed method is extended to the case when processes have unknown variance. The effects of the unknown pro...
A new route to synthesis of nanocomosites by using an unsaturated polyester matrix Toprak, Pelin; Yılmazer, Ülkü; Department of Chemical Engineering (2004) This study was conducted to investigate the effects of organoclay type and concentration on the nanocomposites synthesized by أIn-Situ Polymerizationؤ and أPrepolymerizationؤ methods. In-Situ Polymerization Method was in fact a new route which consisted of dispersing the monomers; propylene glycol, maleic anhydride and o-phthalic anhydride into the galleries of montmorillonite followed by subsequent polymerization. The Prepolymerization Method involved the addition of montmorillonite to the previously synth...
Investigation of bioprocess parameters for glucose isomerase production by Bacillus thermoantarcticus Haykır, Işık; Çalık, Pınar; Department of Chemical Engineering (2007) In this study, the effects of bioprocess parameters on glucose isomerase roduction by Bacillus thermoantarcticus (DSMZ 9572) were investigated. For his purpose, firstly, in laboratory scale shake-bioreactors, a defined medium was designed in terms of its carbon and nitrogen sources, to achieve the highest glucose isomerase activity. Optimum concentrations of medium components were determined by a statistical approach, namely Response Surface Methodology (RSM). RSM defined the relationship between the respon...
The Photocatalytic activity of praseodymium doped titanium dioxide Doğu, Doruk; Karakaş, Gürkan; Ögel, Bilgehan; Department of Micro and Nanotechnology (2012) In this study nanocrystalline TiO2 was synthesized by a sol-gel process. The effect of praseodymium (Pr) doping and calcination conditions on the textural properties of nano structured particles and photocatalytic activity were examined. Samples were synthesized by hydrolyzation of titanium tetra iso-propoxide (TTIP) and calcination at different temperatures. Characterizations of the samples were carried out using XRD, BET, XPS, TEM, and EDAX analyses. It was observed that anatase to rutile transformation i...
