Beypazari lignite was subsequently demineralized with HCl/HF and extracted by pyridine under supercritical conditions. The extracted residue was oxidized in air at 150-degrees-C for up to 120 h in a ventilated oven. Elemental analysis, diffuse reflectance Fourier transform infrared (DRIFT), solid-state C-13 CP/MAS/TOSS NMR, and pyrolysis mass (Py-MS) spectroscopic techniques were used for the structural characterization of the oxidized and unoxidized samples. It was found that the oxidation of the extracted residue proceeded in two consecutive stages. The rate of oxidation, as measured by changes in the concentrations of carboxyl and aliphatic CH2 and CH3 groups and in the O/H atomic ratio, was much faster in the initial than in the second stage. The removal of 90.1% of the mineral matter and 39.7% of the soluble material from the parent lignite facilitated the access of oxygen to the network structure which was relatively enriched in aromatic units by the supercritical fluid extraction. It was therefore easier to form aryl esters, alkyl esters, and anhydrides. Since aliphatic structures were relatively less in concentrations than aromatics, there was little change in the intensities of alkylbenzenes, alkylnaphthalenes, alkyldihydroxybenzenes, alkylphenols, and alkanes during oxidation. The higher intensities of CO2+ (m/z 44) and CH3COOH+ (m/z 60) molecular ions observed in Py-MS than CO+ (m/z 28) molecule ion indicated that more carboxyl-containing functional groups were formed by oxidation than carbonyl-containing groups. Aromatic structures in the organic network were not affected during oxidation. The oxidation pathway of the extracted residue was considered to lie between of the oxidation pathways of the parent and the demineralized Beypazari lignites.

AIR OXIDATION OF TURKISH BEYPAZARI LIGNITE .1. CHANGE OF STRUCTURAL CHARACTERISTICS IN OXIDATION REACTIONS AT 150-DEGREES-C AZIK, M; YURUM, Y; GAINES, AF (American Chemical Society (ACS), 1993-05-01) The oxidation of Beypazari lignite was carried out in air at 150-degrees-C for up to 168 h. Oxidized samples were withdrawn from a ventilated oven at different periods of time and characterized by elemental analysis, diffuse reflectance Fourier transform infrared (DRIFT), solid-state C-13 CP/MAS/TOSS NMR, and pyrolysis mass (Py-MS) spectroscopies. It was found that oxidation influenced the organic structure and the inorganics at different periods of the oxidation. Iron(II) sulfate was formed in 24 h, during...
Hydrogen Generation from the Hydrolysis of Ammonia-borane and Sodium Borohydride Using Water-soluble Polymer-stabilized Cobalt(0) Nanoclusters Catalyst Metin, Onder; Özkar, Saim (American Chemical Society (ACS), 2009-07-01) Polymer-stabilized cobalt(0) nanoclusters were prepared from the reduction of cobalt(II) chloride in the presence of poly(N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone) (PVP) stabilizer in methanol solution. PVP-stabilized cobalt(0) nanoclusters were found to be stable in solution and Could be isolated its solid material and characterized by TEM, XPS, FT-IR, and UV-visible electronic absorption spectroscopy. PVP-stabilized cobalt(0) nanoclusters were employed as catalyst in the hydrolysis of sodium borohydride and ammonia-borane, ...
AIR OXIDATION OF TURKISH BEYPAZARI LIGNITE .2. EFFECT OF DEMINERALIZATION ON STRUCTURAL CHARACTERISTICS IN OXIDATION REACTIONS AT 150-DEGREES-C AZIK, M; YURUM, Y; GAINES, AF (American Chemical Society (ACS), 1994-01-01) Demineralized (HCl/HF) samples of Beypazari lignite were oxidized in air at 150 degrees C for up 120 h in a ventilated oven. Elemental analyses, diffuse reflectance Fourier transform infrared (DRIFT), solid-state C-13 CP/MAS/TOSS NMR, and pyrolysis mass (PY-MS) spectroscopies as well as solvent swelling were used for the characterization of the oxidized and unoxidized samples. It was found that the removal of 90.1% of the mineral matter from Beypazari lignite facilitated the access of oxygen into the coal s...
Rheological properties of asphaltite-water slurries Hicyilmaz, Cahit; Ozun, Savas; Altun, Naci Emre (American Chemical Society (ACS), 2006-09-20) In this study, the rheological characteristics of asphaltite- water slurries ( AWSs) were investigated with respect to some of the most important parameters in the preparation of slurries. The effects of pulp density, chemical addition, pulp pH, and particle size on the rheological behavior and viscosity of AWSs were studied. The role of demineralization of asphaltite was also investigated, and rheological properties of raw and relatively demineralized asphaltites were compared. Results showed that viscosit...
Beneficiation of Himmetoglu oil shale by flotation as a solid fuel substitute. Part 2. Process optimization by a statistical approach Altun, Naci Emre; Hwang, HY; Bagci, AS (American Chemical Society (ACS), 2006-01-01) The effects of the important flotation parameters on the cleaning process of the Himmetoglu oil shale from Turkey were investigated. The individual and multiple interaction effects of conditioning time, flotation time, pulp density, particle size, and frother dosage were determined using statistical analysis and factorial design of experiments. The influence of these parameters on the cleaning performance were evaluated in terms of ash yield, calorific value, and combustible recovery of the concentrates. XR...
