There are mainly three commercial nickel laterites in Turkey: Gordes, Caldag and Sivrihisar. The first two appear in Western Anatolia. The third one, Sivrihisar (Yunusemre) laterites have been found in the first decade of the millennium, in the Central Anatolia region of Turkey. Since then, mining facilities have been continued in Yunusemre. Calcination, prereduction and smelting of Sivrihisar laterites have been extensively studied and published. In the current work, some results of the studies related to characterization of Sivrihisar laterites will be presented.

CALCINATION BEHAVIOR OF SIVRIHISAR LATERITE ORES OF TURKEY KESKİNKILIÇ, ENDER; Pournaderi, Saeid; Geveci, Ahmet; Topkaya, Yavuz Ali (2011-03-03) This study investigated calcination behavior of one of the Turkish laterite deposits, which was recently found in Sivrihisar region. Representative limonitic laterite samples (1.26% Ni) taken from Yunusemre Karasivritepe and Kucuksivritepe location were first subjected to drying. Removal of chemically bound water and other volatiles were then studied, in detail. In the calcination experiments, temperature and time were the main experimental variables. Thermal treatment was conducted at the specific temperat...
STUDY OF CERTAIN PARAMETERS IN LABORATORY-SCALE SMELTING OF SIVRIHISAR LATERITE ORES OF TURKEY KESKİNKILIÇ, ENDER; Pournaderi, Saeid; Geveci, Ahmet; Topkaya, Yavuz Ali (2012-03-15) Conventional ferronickel smelting has five main steps: Drying, calcination, prereduction, smelting and refining. In the scope of the current work, smelting experiments were conducted using Sivrihisar laterite ores (1.26% Ni) of Turkey. The ore samples previously subjected to drying, calcination and prereduction stages were smelted in alumina crucibles in a laboratoryscale horizontal tube furnace under argon atmosphere. Smelting experiments were performed at 1500, 1550 and 1600 degrees C. The amount of exces...
An investigation on the planimetric design efficiency of guestroom floors in 4-star hotels Kula, Berk Osman; Düzgüneş, Arda; Department of Building Science in Architecture (2009) A large number of hostelries have been established in Turkey in line with the necessities of our age. From the period of Seljuk and Ottoman, we encounter many variations of these facilities which have come up to our time starting from the caravansaries. Today, even though these facilities differ architecturally, conceptually they work in the same way. The common feature in almost every one is to keep the maintenance, establishment and repair costs at the minimum level. In addition to this, hotel facilities ...
Evaluation of site effect within the tectonic basin in the northern side of Ankara Eker, Arif Mert; Kockar, Mustafa Kerem; Akgün, Haluk (2015-06-18) This study mainly concentrates on the determination of site effects for the Plio-Quaternary and especially alluvial soils of the Cubuk district and its close vicinity in Ankara, Turkey. In the study area, particularly in the vicinity of the asymmetric graben that has formed due to the tectonic activities along the NE-SW trending normal faults, a microtremor survey was implemented to identify the local site response under a possible seismic event. The results were compared and correlated by using passive and...
An Input-Output Analysis of the Turkish Construction Sector 1973-1990 Birgönül, Mustafa Talat (Ashgate, 2000-06-01) Using the four input-output tables compiled in Turkey to date, the aim of this paper is to examine the construction sector’s role in Turkish economy and analyse its relationships with the other sectors of the national economy. Analysis results show that the share of construction in GNP and NI tend to increase whereas the GNP share of manufacturing is relatively stable and that of services tend to increase after an abrupt decrease in 1985; backward linkage indicators and output multipliers as well as forward...
