Mass transport of ions through the Ankara clay liner, which was prepared under three different compaction conditions, was studied experimentally on the basis of sorption, advection and hydrodynamic dispersion processes. Under optimum compaction conditions, effective porosity and hydraulic conductivity of the material were 0.32 and 0. 13-0.26 x 10(-8) cm s(-1), respectively. Effective diffusion coefficients of Cd, Cl, Cr, Cu, Fe, K, Mg, Mn, Ni, Pb and Zn ions were, respectively, 2.54, 9.51, 2.22, 2.85, 2.22, 7.93. 2.54, 3.08, 1.59, 3.17 and 2.54 (x 10(-6)) cm(2) s(-1). Two materials, prepared using half of the optimum water content but optimum energy conditions (II), and optimum water content but half of the optimum energy conditions (HI), have effective porosities of 0.35 and 0.40, respectively. Hydraulic conductivities of these materials were 3.1-4.38 x 10(-8) cm s(-1) and 916-1057 x 10(-8) cm s(-1). Dispersivities were 0.96 cm and 2.0 cm in materials II and III, respectively.

Çamur, Mehmet Zeki; Yazıcıgil, Hasan (2005-01-01)
Diffusion and sorption of heavy-metal ions (Cd, Cr, Cu, Fe, K, Mn, Ni, Plb, and Zn) through an Ankara clay liner were studied experimentally. The Ankara clay consists of calcite, quartz, smectite and illite, and is a highly plastic inorganic clay with optimum weight water content of 32% and corresponding dry density of 1.413 g/cm(3). U nder optimum compaction conditions, effective porosity (volumetric water content) and hydraulic conductivity in the material were determined as 0.45 and 1.3 to 2.6x10(-9) cm/...
Effects of compaction parameters on heavy metal mass transport in Ankara clay liner: Experimental approach
Çamur, Mehmet Zeki; Yazıcıgil, Hasan (2007-01-01)
Mass transports of Cl, Cd, Cr, Cu, Fe, K, Mn, Ni, Pb and Zn ions through the Ankara clay liner prepared under two different compaction were studied experimentally on the bases of sorption and hydrodynamic dispersion processes. According to geotechnical tests, the Ankara clay material is highly plastic, inorganic clay having a liquid limit of 73, a plastic limit of 29 and a plasticity index of 44. Optimum compaction of the material requires 32% water content and 1.413 g/cm(3) dry density. Two materials, prep...
Sorption/desorption of Cs on clay and soil fractions from various regions of Turkey
Aksoyoglu, S.; Göktürk, H. (Elsevier BV, 1988-2)
The sorption desorption behaviour of Cs ion in the concentration region of 10−8 to 10−4 meqml−1 have been studied using clay and soil fractions from various regions of Turkey. The sorption curves for all the material studied show similar behaviour indicating at least two different sorption processes. One with high and the other with low distribution coefficients. The results of desorption studies indicate that Cs cation is to a large extent attached to the solid material in a reversible manner. The adsorpti...
Ionic conductivity of microporous titanosilicate ETS-10 and ion-exchanged Mn+-ETS-10 (where, Mn+ = Li+, Na+, Mg2+, Zn2+, Ca2+) thin films prepared by secondary growth method
Galioglu, Sezin; Çam, İbrahim; Akata Kurç, Burcu (2017-09-15)
Impedance spectroscopy was used to investigate the long-range ionic conductivity of the microporous, titanosilicate (Na,K)-ETS-10 and ion-exchanged Mn+-ETS-10 (where, Mn+ = Li+, Na+, Mg2+, Zn2+, Ca2+) thin films prepared by secondary growth method. To figure out the effect of grain boundary on ionic conduction, as-synthesized (Na,K)-ETS-10 films possessing different thicknesses of columnar grain structure (i.e., films prepared via 4h-, 6h-, 8h-, and 10h-growth) were tested. The conductivities of the films w...
Evaluation of PCB dechlorination pathways in anaerobic sediment microcosms using an anaerobic dechlorination model
Demirtepe, Hale; Kjellerup, Birthe; Sowers, Kevin R.; İmamoğlu, İpek (Elsevier BV, 2015-10-15)
A detailed quantitative analysis of anaerobic dechlorination (AD) pathways of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in sediment microcosms was performed by applying an anaerobic dechlorination model (ADM). The purpose of ADM is to systematically analyze changes in a contaminant profile that result from microbial reductive dechlorination according to empirically determined dechlorination pathways. In contrast to prior studies that utilized modeling tools to predict dechlorination pathways, ADM also provides quant...
