    Waste Lead-Acid Battery Recycling Technologies
    (Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH, 2023) Altiner, Mahmut; Top, S.; Kursunoglu, Sait
    The growing of collected waste lead-acid battery quantity means the growing demand for secondary lead (Pb) material for car batteries, both needed for increased cars’ production and for replacing of waste batteries for the increased number of automobiles in service. Pb recycling is critical to keep pace with growing energy storage needs. In recent years, tightening emission regulations have forced many developed country smelters to close. This has driven battery manufacturers and distributors to increasingly rely upon unregulated smelting operations in developing nations, negatively impacting the environment and human health. Therefore, finding a cleaner and more cost-efficient Pb recovery and recycling method is critical to the Pb recycling community. © 2023 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.

    Separation of Fe and Mn From Manganiferous Iron Ores via Reductive Acid Leaching Followed by Magnetic Separation
    (Springer, 2019-08-01) Top, S.
    In this study, a process to separate manganese and iron from manganiferous iron ores by reductive acid leaching followed by magnetic separation was conceived and experimentally tested. In the leaching process, sulfuric acid was used as lixiviant and oxalic acid was used as reductant. The experimental results showed that the manganese and iron separation was optimum when the concentration of the sulfuric acid and oxalic acid were 0.75 M and 30 g/L, respectively, at a temperature of 80 °C, a solid/liquid ratio of 67 g/L, stirring speed of 400 rpm, and leaching duration of 60 min. Under this condition, 90.49% and 6.78% of Mn and Fe were dissolved, respectively, from the ore sample with a size fraction of − 106 μm. It was determined that the leaching of manganese from the ores was a second-order reaction with an activation energy (E<inf>a</inf>) of 53.38 kJ/mol. The leaching residues obtained under the optimum condition were subjected to high-intensity wet magnetic separation tests to recover the remaining iron content. This separation process produced a concentrate containing 56.20% Fe and 1.79% Mn with iron and manganese recoveries of 56.83% and 66.73%, respectively. A magnetic separation test from an unleached ore sample was also carried out as a benchmark. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first time that a magnetic separation process was used to a residue obtained from reductive acid leaching of manganiferous iron ores to recover iron. © 2019, Society for Mining, Metallurgy & Exploration Inc.

    Properties of Alkali-Activated Lightweight Concrete
    (Elsevier, 2022) Top, S.; Altiner, Mahmut; Vapur, Hüseyin
    This chapter presents a brief overview of the properties of alkali-activated lightweight concrete. Nowadays, the production of lightweight concrete has great attentions due to its extraordinary advantages such as reduced mass, improved sound and thermal insulation properties. Furthermore, the low gas emissions and the utilization of waste materials increase the importance of alkali-activated lightweight concrete. In this chapter, the strengths of lightweight concrete were examined by considering the aggregate type and density, the alkali activator type and concentration, the type of fiber reinforcements and foaming agents, which are the factors that have the most impact on the strengths. Thermal conductivity, fire resistance, acoustic performance, and durability properties have been explained considering the key points in the literature. In addition to porosity, it has been determined that one of the most important factors directly affecting the fire resistance is the precursor type. It has been concluded that the fire resistance of the concrete prepared by using K-based precursors is higher. Acoustic performances of alkali-activated lightweight concrete vary. It is necessary to use a high amount of aggregate in order to obtain concretes with wide frequency ranges and high absorption coefficient. Contrary to concrete produced from Portland cement, alkali-activated concrete is more resistant to acid and sulfate attacks, since the formation of gypsum and strength is less. © 2022 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.

    Post-Leaching of Silver From a Non-Sulfide Lead-Zinc Ore Flotation Tailing Leach Residue in a Copper-Ammonium Thiosulfate Solution: A Fuzzy Logic Prediction
    (Pleiades Publishing Ltd, 2023-04) Hussaini, S.; Tita, A. M.; Kursunoglu, S.; Kursunoglu, N.; Top, S.; Kaya, M.
    The post-leaching of silver (Ag) from a non-sulfide lead-zinc (Pb-Zn) ore flotation tailing leach residue in a copper-ammonium thiosulfate solution was investigated. Ag (89.7%) was extracted into the leaching solution under the following conditions: 30 g/l ammonium thiosulfate, 0.5 g/l copper sulfate, 25 & DEG;C leaching temperature and 4 h leaching time. On the basis of the experimental results, a fuzzy logic prediction was made. Ammonium thiosulfate, copper sulfate and leaching period were chosen as predictive criteria in this step. The fuzzy prediction model was found to be very consistent with the experimental data (R-2:0.9657). Based on these findings, the application of the fuzzy logic prediction approach to the silver dissolution from the leach residue could be considered.

    Lead Blast Furnace Dust Recycling
    (Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH, 2023) Top, S.; Altiner, Mahmut; Kursunoglu, Sait
    The recycling of lead (Pb), which has a limited reserve in the world, has great importance in terms of sustainable and efficient use of resources. Currently, more than half of the lead, which is the softest of base heavy metals, is recovered by recycling. In addition to the insulation of the cables and its use as a radiation shield, lead is mostly used in the manufacture of lead-acid batteries (LABs). Generally, lead smelting flue dust, also known as lead smelting fly ashes, formed during the smelting stage in secondary Pb production is fed back into the smelter. However, the impurities contained in this dust and the other required specifications for feeding into the furnace prevent dust from being fed back into the furnaces. Therefore, it is essential to evaluate these by-products with an effective process and to obtain valuable content from them. In this chapter, firstly the characterization of lead smelting flue dust has been investigated. Afterwards, the processes that can be applied to obtain contents such as Pb, Sb, Zn, and As from these materials were compiled from the literature and a comprehensive review study was presented. © 2023 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.

    Investigation of the Beneficiation of Low Grade Manganese Ores
    (Chamber of Mining Engineers of Turkey maden@maden.org.tr, 2013) Bayat, Oktay; Altiner, Mahmut; Top, S.
    In this study, beneficiation of low grade manganese ores was investigated by applying high intensity dry magnetic separation, MGS (Multi Gravity Separator) and flotation methods. Manganese grades of the ores were 25.65% Mn and 13.96% Mn taken from Antalya and Kayseri regions, respectively. Flotation and magnetic separation recoveries of both tested samples were low and the grades of the concentrates were less than 45% Mn. Similar results were also observed using a lab-type MGS but a concentrate could be obtained with 41.24% Mn and 78.71% recovery for manganese ores taken from Antalya region. © 2014 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.
