    Optimizing Nanoclay-Enhanced Membranes for Oil Rejection Using Response Surface Methodology
    (Wiley, 2026) Gul, Ayse; Baris, Mesut; Boyraz, Pınar; Senol-Arslan, Dilek; Alibaz, Name Nur
    The efficient separation of waste oil from contaminated water is critical due to its challenges in environmental and industrial applications. This study investigated the production and optimization of polysulphone (PSF) membranes using two different types of clay (nanomer clay/CN and commercial nanoclay/NC). Response Surface Methodology (RSM) was applied to optimize the basic production parameters and nanoclay concentrations systematically to maximize oil rejection and permeability flow. The experimental results showed that NC and CN significantly increased the hydrophilicity, permeability, and fouling resistance of the membrane compared to pure PSF membranes. The contact angle significantly decreased from 64.34 degrees (pristine PSF) to 36.23 degrees (2% NC), indicating highly improved hydrophilicity. Consequently, the pure water flux increased from 177.2 L/m2 h to a maximum of 248.6 L/m2 h (1% NC). Furthermore, the modified membranes exhibited outstanding anti-fouling properties; the flux recovery ratio (FRR) improved from 88.09% to 96.20% (1% CN), while the decline ratio (DR) drastically dropped from 60.89% to 32.14%. The optimized condition for maximum removal efficiency using a modified quadratic model revealed that 2572 mg/L oil can be treated with a PSF membrane containing 2.0% CN to remove 98.271% of the oil. The model also suggests superiority of CN over NC with desirability factors of 0.978 and 0.900, respectively, while both demonstrated high efficiency. This theoretically modeled experimental comparative study highlights the importance of PSF membrane technology for efficient and sustainable oil-water separation and demonstrates the promising potential of nanoclay modifications.

    Comparative Analysis of Modulation Shapes on Laser Diode Performance with a High-Efficiency LLC Resonant Converter Driver
    (Wiley, 2026-02-06) Yigit, Hayri; Rifat boynuegri, Ali; Tekgun, Burak; Rifat Boynuegri, Ali
    High-power laser diodes (LDs) are key components in laser-based wireless power transfer (WPT) systems, where end-to-end efficiency is one of the most critical performance metrics. This study investigates the driving performance of an LD powered by a high-efficiency LLC resonant converter under three distinct excitation waveforms-sinusoidal, triangular, and rectified-sine-using a MATLAB/SIMULINK model and an experimental setup designed to reproduce real-world operating conditions. Each waveform is synthesized through frequency modulation of a full-bridge inverter stage and filtered at the output. The analysis examines the impact of modulation shape on output current ripple, converter efficiency, and overall LD efficiency. Experimental validation confirms the simulation trends, underscoring the trade-offs between waveform smoothness, implementation complexity, and efficiency. Beyond confirming that constant-current operation yields the highest LD efficiency, this study explicitly quantifies how low-frequency current ripple induced by different modulation waveforms propagates through the LLC resonant converter, alters RMS current stress, and translates into measurable efficiency degradation at both the driver and LD levels. By experimentally correlating waveform symmetry, ripple magnitude, and loss mechanisms, the work establishes practical design boundaries for waveform-modulated laser drivers in WPT systems.

    A Comprehensive Review on the Extraction and Recovery of Lithium from Primary and Secondary Sources: Advances Toward Battery-Grade Materials
    (Wiley, 2025-10-20) Top, Soner; Kursunoglu, Sait; Altiner, Mahmut
    Lithium-ion battery (LIB) technologies have become indispensable to modern energy systems, driving global demand for high-purity lithium compounds. This review focuses on lithium recovery and purification strategies for battery-grade lithium carbonate (Li2CO3) and lithium hydroxide (LiOH), addressing both primary sources (brines and minerals) and secondary sources (waste materials). Industrially established processes, such as evaporation-based brine treatment and conventional metallurgical methods, are discussed alongside emerging techniques, including membrane separation, solvent extraction, and CO2-assisted precipitation. Particular attention is given to lithium precipitation mechanisms, the behaviour of co-existing ions during extraction, and the specific quality requirements for cathode material synthesis. By evaluating process scalability, environmental impact, and product purity, this review provides a comprehensive understanding of current practices and future directions. Additionally, it highlights the growing importance of lithium in the context of accelerating electric vehicle (EV) adoption, underscoring the bright and expanding future of the lithium industry.
