    The Different Impacts of g-C3N4 Nanosheets on PVDF and PSF Ultrafiltration Membranes for Remazol Black 5 Dye Rejection
    (Wiley, 2023-08-02) Senol-Arslan, Dilek; Gul, Ayse; Dizge, Nadir; Ocakoglu, Kasim; Uzal, Nigmet
    Membranes combined with nanoparticles are an excellent combination capable of successfully removing various contaminants, such as dyes from wastewater while using very little energy and decreasing pollution. The present study reports an efficient approach for Remazol Black 5 (RB5) dye removal using composite graphitic carbon nitride nanosheets (g-C3N4), polysulfone (PSF), and polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membranes. The membranes were prepared using the phase inversion method, with varying quantities of g-C3N4 nanosheets ranging from 0.1%, 0.2% to 0.3%. The prepared g-C3N4 nanosheets were characterized by FTIR, SEM analyses, and zeta potential measurements. FTIR and SEM studies, contact angle, water permeability, COD, and dye rejection measurements were used to characterize the g-C3N4 nanosheets embedded in PSF and PVDF membranes. After the addition of 0.3 wt% g-C3N4, the water flux of the 0.3 wt% g-C3N4 embedded PSF membrane was the highest, whereas the water flux of the 0.3 wt% g-C3N4 embedded PVDF membrane was the lowest. The ultrafiltration (UF) membrane's performance with g-C3N4 embedded showed an RB5 rejection rate of more than 80% and a COD removal efficiency of more than 45%. The results of the experimental filtration showed that RB5 rejection reached maximum values of 91.3% for 0.1 wt% g-C3N4/PSF, and 85.6% for 0.3 wt% g-C3N4/PVDF.

    Diffuse-Layer Surface Potentials of Colemanites Mined in Turkey
    (Oficyna Wydawnicza Politechniki Wrocławskiej, 2022-07-07) Arslan, Dilek Senol; Drelich, Jaroslaw W.; Senol-Arslan, Dilek
    Colemanite crystal specimens were handpicked at Kestelek, Emet (Hisarcik, Espey), Bigadic mines in Turkey for characterization of their composition and surface potential. X-ray diffraction analysis revealed no differences in mineralogical makeup of the crystals, but elemental analysis indicated differences in the type of trace (<0.1 wt%) elements. Zeta potential measurements showed small differences in zeta potential values, with isoelectric points (iep) varying from about pH = 9.6 to pH = 10.2. However, no correlation was found between iep and the type of trace elements. Additionally, atomic force microscopy (AFM) was employed to measure the colloidal interactions between a silicon nitride (Si3N4) cantilever tip and colemanite crystal surfaces in 1 wt% colemanite-saturated aqueous solutions at three different pHs (8.4, 9.4 and 11). The Derjaguin-Landau-Verwey-Overbeek theory (DLVO) was applied to examine the AFM tip interactions with colemanite surfaces in an aqueous solution of colemanite saturated solutions. The results revealed attractive forces at pH = 8.4 and 9.4 and repulsive forces at pH = 11, confirming the location of an isoelectric point for colemanite specimens somewhere between pH = 9.5 and pH = 10.1. Theoretical analysis of the force curves using the DLVO theory allowed for assessment of both surface charge density and surface potential for colemanite specimens used in this study.

    Türkiye’de Farklı Yörelerde Bulunan Kolemanit Minerallerinin Fiziksel, Kimyasal Ve Termal Özelliklerinin Tayini
    (Gumushane University, 2021-08-24) Senol-Arslan, Dilek; Arslan, Dilek Senol; Şenol Arslan, Dilek
    In this study, colemanite is an important boron mineral which constitutes about 76% of Turkey's boron reserves, is frequently used in applications obtained as a result of scientific and technological developments. In this context, a detailed literature survey was carried out colemanite minerals. Characteristic and structural features of the colemanite samples of four different regions (Kestelek, Emet (Hisarcık, Espey), Bigadiç regions) were determined by analyzes such as X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), Inductively Coupled Plasma, ICP and Mass Spectrometry, MS (ICP-MS), Thermogravimetric and Differential thermal analysis (TG-DTA), and Fouier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR) methods. In line with these findings, the mineralogical, chemical and thermal properties of pure colemanite crystals were determined and the similarities and differences between the samples were revealed. © 2025 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.
