In this study, ultrafine particles were recovered from Catalagzi (CFA) and Sugozu (SFA) thermal power plant fly ashes using a specific hydraulic classification technology. Since fly ashes have a high tendency to be flocculated in water, settling experiments were first designed to determine the more effective dispersant and the optimum dosage. Two different types of the superplasticizers (SP) polymers based on sulphonate (NSF, Disal) and carboxylate (Glenium 7500) were used as the dispersing agents in these settling experiments. Hydraulic classification experiments were then conducted to separate ultrafine fractions from the fly ash samples on the basis of the settling experiments. According to the settling experiments, better results were achieved with the use of Disal for both CFA and SFA. The classification experiments showed that the overflow products with average particle sizes of 5.2 mu m for CFA and 4.4 mu m for SFA were separated from the respective as-received samples with acceptable yields and high enough recoveries of -5 mu m (ultrafine) particles. Overall results pointed out that the hydraulic classification technology used provided promising results in the ultrafine particle separations from the fly ash samples.

Solvent extraction of scandium from lateritic nickel- cobalt ores using different organic reagents Ferizoglu, Ece; Kaya, Serap; Topkaya, Yavuz Ali (2016-09-28) Scandium is the most important and strategic metal that can be recovered as a by-product from lateritic nickel-cobalt ores. In this research, different extractants were investigated in order to extract scandium from a sulfate medium by a using a solvent extraction method. Generally, the organic extractants are classified as acidic, neutral and basic organophosphorus compounds. However, in solvent extraction of scandium, the acidic and neutral organophosphorus compounds are preferred due to their higher extr...
Production of heavy-media-quality magnetite concentrate from Kesikköprü iron ore tailings Güngör, Kazım; Atalay, M Ümit; Department of Mining Engineering (2010) The aim of this research was to investigate the possibility of the production of a magnetite concentrate which is suitable for preparation of heavy media from iron ore tailings of Güncem Mining Company magnetic separation facility. During the study, three different tailings named as low grade, medium grade and high grade with 5.91 % Fe3O4, 19.06 % Fe3O4 and 37.06 % Fe3O4, respectively, were used. Mineralogical analyses of test samples showed that magnetite and hematite were the major ore minerals while pyri...
Characterization and utilization potential of class F fly ashes Acar, İlker; Atalay, Mustafa Ümit; Department of Mining Engineering (2013) In this thesis, characterization of two class F fly ashes (FA) from Çatalağzı and Sugözü thermal power plants were carried out and their utilization potentials in three different fields were examined. Characterization of sintered samples and determination of their utilization potentials in ceramic industry is the first research area in this thesis. For this purpose, the class F fly ash samples were first pressed into cylindrical specimen without the addition of any organic binders or inorganic additives, an...
Characterization of Particulate Matter Emitted from Combustion of Various Biomasses in O-2/N-2 and O-2/CO2 Environments Ruscio, Amanda; Kazanç Özerinç, Feyza; Levendis, Yiannis A. (American Chemical Society (ACS), 2014-01-01) This work reports on the physical and chemical characteristics of the ashes of biomass residues burned in air as well as in simulated dry oxy-combustion conditions. Three pulverized biomass residues (olive residue, corn residue, and torrefied pine sawdust) were burned in a laboratory-scale laminar-flow drop tube furnace heated to 1400 K. Olive residue resulted in by far the largest particulate yields both submicrometer (PM1) and supermicrometer (PM1-18)-whereas torrefied pine sawdust resulted in the lowest....
Removal of heavy metals in waste water by using coal fly ash Tuzcu, Emrah Tuğcan; Atalay, M Ümit; Department of Mining Engineering (2005) In this research, it is aimed to remove toxic heavy metals in waste water with the help of fly ash from Çayırhan thermal power plant. The chemical and physical properties (size distribution, specific surface area, porosity, chemical composition, etc.) of fly ash were determined. The experiments were carried out in synthetic waste water containing lead, zinc and copper metals at different concentrations with the addition of fly ash. The effects of metal concentration, agitation time, particle size, ash amoun...
