Article Citation - WoS: 15Citation - Scopus: 15The Effects of Pyrite Ash on the Compressive Strength Properties of Briquettes(Korean Society of Civil Engineers-ksce, 2012-11) Sola, Ozlem Celik; Atis, Cengiz DuranThe aim of this study is to investigate the utilization of Pyrite Ash (PA) in the production of briquettes as a replacement of clay or soil. To achieve this, first, the characterization of the materials used (clayey soil and pyrite ash) was made using Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR/ATR). Particle size distribution and microstructure elemental analyses of these materials were also obtained using a particle size analyzer (Mastersizer) and a Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). Following the characterization of the materials, the samples of briquettes made with or without addition of PA were prepared and sintered at 950 and 1000A degrees C in the furnace. The PA replacement ratios with clayey soil were 0, 5, 10, 20% in mass basis (w/w). Compressive strength and bulk densities of briquettes produced were measured and the results were presented. Compressive strength results of the briquette samples indicated that pyrite ash containing briquettes with 35 MPa compressive strength, which was higher than the requirements of Turkish Standard Specification (TS EN 771-1), can be obtained. It is also recorded that for each mixture, compressive strength values obtained at 1000A degrees C were higher than that of obtained at 950A degrees C. XRD analyze was performed on sintered briquette sample made with 10% PA which have the highest compressive strength value. The XRD results showed that peaks are Quartz (SiO2), Hematite (Fe2O3), Ortoclase (KAlSi3O8), Albite (Na(AlSi3O8)), Anorthite (CaAl2Si2O8) and Gehlenite (2CaO.Al2O3.SiO2).Article Citation - WoS: 6Citation - Scopus: 8The Effects of Different Types of Fly Ash on the Compressive Strength Properties of Briquettes(Hindawi Ltd, 2011) Sola, Ozlem Celik; Yayla, Murat; Sayin, Baris; Atis, Cengiz Duran; Duran Atiş, Cengiz; Sayin, BarişThe aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of the different types of fly ash on the compressive strength properties of sintered briquettes. Thermal gravimetric (TG) analysis was carried out. The chemical composition and physical properties of the materials used were determined. Particle size distribution and microstructure elemental analyses of the materials used were carried out by a particle size analyzer (Mastersizer) and a scanning electron microscope (SEM-EDS). Following the characterization of the materials, briquettes were prepared by sintering at different temperatures. Compressive strength test results of the briquette samples indicated that briquettes with a compressive strength value of 47.45 N/mm(2) can be produced. The results obtained exceed the Turkish standard (TS EN 771-1) requirements (9.8-23.54 N/mm(2)). SEM-EDS results showed that briquette samples made with Tuncbilek (T) fly ash had a higher percentage of the glassy phase than the other briquette samples. Due to this microstructure, it results in higher compressive strength value.Article Citation - WoS: 76Citation - Scopus: 81Influence of NaNo SiO2 and NaNo CaCo3 Particles on Strength, Workability, and Microstructural Properties of Fly Ash-Based Geopolymer(Ernst & Sohn, 2020-05-06) Durak, Ugur; Karahan, Okan; Uzal, Burak; Ilkentapar, Serhan; Atis, Cengiz DuranThe influence of nano SiO2(NS) and CaCO3(NC) particles on the properties of class F fly ash based geopolymer mortar activated with different sodium ion concentrations have been investigated. Mortar mixture proportions were 1:3:0.3 for binder, sand, and water, respectively. Nano SiO2 and CaCO3 particles were replaced with a binder by weight basis at the ratios of 1, 2, and 3% in the mixtures. Sodium concentrations amount used were 8, 10, and 12% Na+ of binder content. Geopolymer mortar samples were cured at 60, 75, and 90 degrees C in a furnace for 24, 48, and 72 hr. After the heat curing process, flexural, and compressive strength tests were performed. The changes in the microstructure of geopolymer due to influence of nanoparticles were examined by utilizing isothermal calorimetric studies on geopolymer paste, and field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM). Based on laboratory work results, it was concluded that for all sodium ion concentrations, the addition of nano SiO2 and CaCO3 particles improved the flexural and compressive strengths after 24 hr heat curing. However, the favorable effects of nanoparticles on strength properties tend to disappear after 48 and 72 hr heat curing. The results of isothermal calorimetric studies showed that nano SiO2 and CaCO3 particles accelerated the geopolymeric reactions at an early age. FESEM results showed that additions of nanoparticles made the microstructure of geopolymer products more intense and compact.Article Citation - WoS: 9Citation - Scopus: 11Evaluation of Diatomite Substitute With Thermal Power Plant Waste Fly Ash in Sustainable Geopolymer Through Life Cycle Assessment(Springer, 2025-02-28) Ilkentapar, Serhan; Orklemez, Ezgi; Durak, Ugur; Gulcimen, Sedat; Bayram, Savas; Uzal, Nigmet; Atis, Cengiz DuranThis research demonstrates the potential of diatomite as a fly ash replacement to improve mechanical properties and environmental sustainability and presents it as a viable alternative for sustainable construction. Additionally, a life cycle assessment (LCA) was conducted on the produced mortars to quantitatively compare their environmental impacts using a cradle-to-gate approach. In mixtures, it was used by replacing the diatomite in the ratios of 1%, 2%, 3%, 4%, and 5% by weight of the fly ash. Workability, unit weight, flexural and compressive strength, abrasion resistance, elevated temperature resistance and microstructure analysis were carried out. The results indicated that replacing 1%, 2%, and 3% diatomite increased the compressive and flexural strength of mortars due to their higher specific surface area. Two percent replacement of diatomite provided the best results. FESEM results of 3% diatomite inclusion showed more intense and compact microstructure of geopolymer. Diatomite inclusion increased the abrasion resistance of geopolymer. Since 2% diatomite replacement was found to be optimum, the LCA results showed that geopolymer mortar with 2% diatomite has 25% lower impacts in terms of global warming potential and 10% lower impacts in terms of terrestrial ecotoxicity than conventional Portland cement mortar.
