    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.

    Isotherms, Kinetics and Thermodynamics of Pb(II) Adsorption by Crosslinked Chitosan/Sepiolite Composite
    (Springer, 2021-04-13) Senol-Arslan, Dilek
    A novel composite adsorbent was prepared from chitosan (Ch) and sepiolite (S) for removal of Pb(II) from aqueous solution. The Ch-S composite beads were successfully synthesized by crosslinking epichlorohydrin (ECH) and tripolyphosphate (NaTPP). A number of physicochemical parameters such as, pH, initial Pb(II) concentration, temperature, contact time and desorption have been studied during the adsorption process. Experimental data acquired from batch adsorption tests have been analyzed by three isotherm models (Langmuir, Freundlich and Dubinin-Radushkevich), and three kinetic models including the pseudo-first-order, the pseudo-second-order and intraparticle diffusion equations using nonlinear regression technique. Langmuir isotherm was the best to fit the experimental data (R-2 = 0.971). The maximum adsorption capacity was 0.158 mol kg(-1) from Langmuir isotherm model. Maximum removal efficiency was found approximately 66% for the initial Pb(II) concentration of 1000 mg/L, adsorbent dosage of 100 mg and agitation speed of 150 rpm at pH 4.5. The adsorption free energy was found as E-DR (15.8 kJ mol(-1)), which indicated that Pb(II) adsorption process onto Ch-S composite was chemically performed. The kinetic studies have shown that the best fitted kinetic model is the pseudo-first order (R-2 = 0.979). Adsorption enthalpy value was determined as 18.7 kJ mol(-1), adsorption entropy was found as 106 J mol(-1) K-1, and Gibbs free energy was found as 12.9 kJ mol(-1). The thermodynamic parameters showed that the adsorption of Pb(II) on Ch-S was endothermic, possible and spontaneous.

    Fabrication and Characterization of Silane-Functionalized Na-Bentonite Polysulfone/Polyethylenimine Nanocomposite Membranes for Dye Removal
    (Wiley, 2020-02-04) Saki, Seda; Senol-Arslan, Dilek; Uzal, Nigmet
    In this study, tetraethoxysilane (TEOS)-functionalized Na-bentonite incorporated into polysulfone/polyethylenimine (PSF/PEI) membranes were fabricated by phase inversion method for the efficient removal of methylene blue dye. For the preparation of PSF/PEI nanocomposite membranes, silane-functionalized Na-bentonite and pure Na-bentonite were used at three different concentrations (0.5, 1, and 2 wt%). The prepared membranes were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy, porosity, hydrophilicity, and water permeability measurements. Antifouling behaviors and methylene blue dye rejections of the PSF/PEI nanocomposite membranes were also tested. The obtained results showed that the addition of pure Na-bentonite and silane-functionalized Na-bentonite both increased the water permeability of the membranes. The PSF/PEI membrane containing 2 wt% silane-functionalized Na-bentonite showed the highest water flux of 105 L m(-2) h(-1), while the lowest water flux of 1.2 L m(-2) h(-1) was recorded for pure PSF membrane. Filtration results demonstrated that the antifouling capacity was significantly increased due to the negatively charged surface of the newly generated silane-functionalized Na-bentonite PSF/PEI membranes. In summary, TEOS-functionalized Na-bentonite can be used to fabricate PSF/PEI nanocomposite membranes with effective filtration ability, antifouling capacity with lower decay ratio, higher flux recovery ratio, and 99% methylene blue dye removal performance.

    Enhancing Oil Rejection in PVDL and PSF Membranes: The Role of SiO2 NPS
    (Wiley, 2024-12-17) Senol-Arslan, Dilek; Gul, Ayse
    Oily water negatively affects both land and marine ecosystems. To combat this, membrane production can effectively treat oil waste and recycle over 90% of it. This study compares the influence of SiO2 nanoparticles on oil rejection in two types of membranes: polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) and polysulfone (PSF). The SiO2 NPs are characterized by FTIR, SEM analysis, and zeta potential measurements. SiO2 NPs embedded PSF and PVDF membranes were characterized by FTIR, SEM analysis, contact angle, water permeability, oil rejection measurements, and recycling experiments. The results of the experiments showed that oil rejection reached maximum values of 92.2% for 2 wt% PSF/SiO2, and 94.1% for 2 wt% PVDF/SiO2 membranes. The experimental results demonstrate that the incorporation of SiO2 nanoparticles enhances the oil rejection efficiency of two distinct membrane types, exhibiting notable performance disparities contingent on the selected membrane material. This methodology achieves a recycling rate of over 90% for oil waste, signifying a substantial advancement in environmental protection and sustainable development. Consequently, the membrane production technique is regarded as an efficacious approach for the management and recycling of oil waste.
