Bioelectricity Generation From Wastewater Sludge Using Microbial Fuel Cells: A Critical Review Ömeroğlu, Seçil; Sanin, Faika Dilek (Wiley, 2016-09-01) Today, the majority of the world's energy is provided by fossil fuels. Natural energy resources soon will be consumed as a result of rising energy needs of the growing population, leading to a global energy crisis. The insecurity in the energy market also affects the global economy negatively and forces the governments to investigate renewable energy alternatives such as bioenergy. Bioenergy technologies can reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions significantly and can serve to satisfy many forms of energy de...
Screening and In Situ Monitoring of Potential Petroleum Hydrocarbon Degraders in Contaminated Surface Water İçgen, Bülent (Wiley, 2017-01-01) Incomplete combustion of fossil fuels and other anthropogenic activities result in contamination of surface water by petroleum hydrocarbons. These pollutants can have severe effects on aquatic life and human health. In petroleum bioremediation, oil degrading microorganisms are utilized to remove petroleum hydrocarbons from polluted water. However, monitoring and identifying microorganisms capable of degrading petroleum hydrocarbons is very challenging. In the current study, bacteria isolated from a river al...
Predicting Diel, Diurnal and Nocturnal Dynamics of Dissolved Oxygen and Chlorophyll-a Using Regression Models and Neural Networks KARAKAYA, NUSRET; EVRENDİLEK, FATİH; GÜNGÖR, KEREM; Onal, Deniz (Wiley, 2013-09-01) Human-induced and natural interruptions with continuous streams of observational data necessitate the development of gap-filling and prediction strategies towards better understanding, monitoring and management of aquatic systems. This study quantified the efficacy of multiple non-linear regression (MNLR) versus artificial neural network (ANN) models as well as the temporal partitioning of diurnal versus nocturnal data for the predictions of chlorophyll-a (chl-a) and dissolved oxygen (DO) dynamics. The temp...
Aerobic Bacterial Degraders With Their Relative Pathways for Efficient Removal of Individual BTEX Compounds Yavas, Alper; İçgen, Bülent (Wiley, 2018-11-01) Benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylene (BTEX) compounds are of great environmental concern due to their toxicity and carcinogenicity. Bacterial removal of BTEX has proven to be highly efficient, cost-effective, and nondisruptive, provided that, efficient bacterial degraders are available. The objective of this study, therefore, is to discover aerobic bacterial degraders with their relative pathways that could be employed for the efficient removal of individual BTEX compounds. A total of 22 petroleum hyd...
An Assessment of the Spatial Distribution of Polychlorinated Biphenyl Contamination in Turkey Gedik, Kadir; İmamoğlu, İpek (Wiley, 2010-02-01) This study summarizes the relevant information regarding the spatial distribution of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in various environmental (e.g., soil, sediment, air, water) and biological (e.g., fish, mussel, adipose tissue, milk) media in Turkey. The information sources, used for this purpose, in addition to the scientific literature, were; official import records, governmental reports on monitoring of organochlorines, and reports prepared by international organizations. PCBs were never produced in Tu...
