    Rehabilitation of Water and Environment of The TKI - GELI/YLI Opencast Mine Lakes
    (Chamber of Mining Engineers of Turkey maden@maden.org.tr, 2013) Delibalta, Mahmut Suat; Uzal, Niǧmet
    During the search, production and enrichment process of mining operations the air, soil, water resources and living organisms are affected adversely. In coal opencast production, with the rise of surface water and ground water level large or small ponds are composed. The most important environmental problems of these ponds are low pH (acidic characteristic) and high metal concentrations (Fe, Mn, Al, Cu, Pb, Zn etc.) of these ponds, besides the sulfide minerals containing (S0<inf>4</inf>) and the waste materials. These ponds needed to be rehabilitated for is one the sustainability of natural resources. In this study, the average pH values 6.22-7.79, turbidity (NTU) 0.63-6.71, sulphate content 840-1720 mg/L, KOI 2.27-61.5mg/L and electrical conductivity 1.72 -2.71 mS/cm have been measured during the monitoring study of three different lignite opencast mine post-production lakes of the TKI -GELI and YLI. The results were evaluated within the framework of relevant laws and regulations. Analyses were performed in three-month periods. © 2014 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.

    Effect of Ambient Temperature on the Flexural Behavior of 3D Printed Composite Beams
    (Soc. for the Advancement of Material and Process Engineering Janie@sampe.org, 2018) Yildirim, Afsin Talha; Eroglu, Fatih; Yesilyurt, Ogulcan; Albayrak, Kubilay; Sas, Hatice Sinem; Çiftçi, Cihan
    Adaptation of the additive manufacturing technology with 3D printers may lead to a new track in the manufacturing of composite materials. This additive manufacturing technology aims to mitigate manufacturing challenges and related design limitations of traditional composite manufacturing methods. The implementation of 3D printing of composite materials has the potential of decreasing the material cost by developing scientific methodologies to understand and optimize this printing process. This study focuses on understanding the flexural behavior of 3D printed composite beam elements and providing material data of both matrix and reinforcement components of composite materials. In this study, the flexural performance at different thermal conditions is experimentally investigated. This investigation involves the effect of the matrix material with and without short-fiber reinforcements for a specified fiber placement in the beam and fiber filaments placement in compression and tension sides of the composite beam elements along with the ambient temperature change. © 2018 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.

    Sustainable Water Management and Rehabilitation in the Mining Lakes, Ilgin-Konya, Turkey
    (Agro Arge Danismanlik San ve Tic As, 2016) Delibalta, M. S.; Uzal, N.; Lermi, A.
    The processes during the search, production and enrichment of mining operations naturally affects the air, soil, water resources in turn the natural environment and living organisms. In general, the environmental impact of coal opencast mining operations is much more significant than that of underground mining and mineral processing. After stripping of the material filling the holes in coal opencast production, with the rise of surface water and ground water level is composed of large or small ponds. Low pH (acidic characteristic) and high metal concentrations (Al, Ca, Mn, Fe, Cu, Zn, Pb) of these ponds, containing sulfide minerals and the waste materials, for the sustainability of natural resources is one of the biggest environmental problems. This paper is to investigate geochemical characteristics of the pond waters in the Ilgm Coal deposit area. Geochemical analyses were made by ICP-MS in waters taken from ponds in each three-month periods. Highest heavy metal contents 1839 ppb Mn and 9777 ppb Fe, the average pH values 6.49-7.81, turbidity (NTU) 0.1263.6, sulphate content 0.05-2.67 mg SO4/L, chemical oxygen demand 4-136 mg O-2/L, and electrical conductivity 285 mu S/cm4.68 mS/cm have been measured during the monitoring study of five different lignite opencast mine post-production lakes of the TKI GLI Ilgm. Analyses were performed in three-month periods. The results were evaluated within the framework of relevant laws and regulations.

    Overlooked Strategies in Exploitation of Microorganisms in the Field of Building Materials
    (SPRINGER-VERLAG SINGAPORE PTE LTD, 152 BEACH ROAD, #21-01/04 GATEWAY EAST, SINGAPORE, 189721, SINGAPORE, 2019) Ersan, Yusuf Cagatay
    Resource efficiency reports released in the last decade point out construction industry as one of the key sectors that needs improvement in terms of ecological sensitivity. Being aware of this unfavorable reputation of construction industry, researchers embarked on replacing the ongoing conventional methods with more sustainable and environmentally friendly ones. One of the approaches for the latter is incorporating microorganisms into construction industry. Popularly investigated strategies can be listed as biocementation, biomasonry, biorepair, and bioconsolidation. Most of these processes are the outcome of a single approach, namely microbial-induced calcium carbonate precipitation (MICP) which was mostly investigated by means of axenic cultures and through one single microbial process, ureolysis. The state of the art about the latter is close to saturation. Moreover, approaching from the ecological wisdom perspective it can be said that some promising microbial strategies to achieve green building materials were overlooked and drawing attention to these strategies became necessary. This review study reveals the overlooked promising microbial strategies in the field of construction biotechnology. The context mainly discusses the potential of five overlooked microbial strategies: (i) heterotrophic and autotrophic MICP pathways, (ii) microbial strategies for surface treatment, (iii) microbial-induced corrosion inhibition, (iv) microbial sequestration of greenhouse gases, and (v) microbial- produced polymers, for their application in the field of construction materials. Further suggestions aim to integrate the microbial resource management approach and non-axenic cultures into the relevant fields of research for the development of environmentally friendly building materials.

    A rational utilization of reinforcement material for flexural design of 3D-printed composite beams
    (SAGE PUBLICATIONS LTD, 1 OLIVERS YARD, 55 CITY ROAD, LONDON EC1Y 1SP, ENGLAND, 2019) Ciftci, Cihan; Sas, Hatice S.
    Recent developments in composite industry address the adaptation of 3D printing technology to overcome the design and manufacturing challenges of the traditional composite processing techniques. This adaptation can be performed with the development of design methodologies corresponding to the type of structural load-carrying members in a structure. Considering the frequently use of beams in structures, the development of the design methodology of beams is essential for the adaptation of the additive manufacturing. Therefore, in this paper, the flexural loading concept is analytically formulated to derive moment capacity for the flexural behavior of 3D-printed composite beams. Then, the formulation is adapted to develop a design methodology of 3D-printed laminates under flexural loading. Additionally, the analytical solutions developed for the design methodology presented in this paper were verified with a good agreement with experimental studies.
