The catalytic combustion of ethyl acetate over prepared metal oxide catalysts was investigated. CeO, Co2O3, Mn2O3, Cr2O3, and CeO-Co2O3 catalysts were prepared on monolith supports and they were tested. Before conducting the catalyst experiments, we searched for the homogeneous gas phase combustion reaction of ethylacetate. According to the homogeneous phase experimental results, 45% of ethylacetate was converted at the maximum reactor temperature tested (350 degrees C). All the prepared catalysts were tested in order to find the best catalyst for the complete combustion of ethyl acetate. According to the results, all these catalysts produced higher conversion rates than that of the homogeneous experiment; however, none of the prepared catalysts resulted in complete combustion. The maximum conversion obtained with the CeO catalyst at 350 degrees C was 72%.

Sorption of radioactive cesium and barium ions onto solid humic acid Celebi, O.; Kilikli, A.; ERTEN, HASAN NİYAZİ (Elsevier BV, 2009-09-15) In this study, the sorption behavior of two important fission product radionuclides ((137)Cs and (140)Ba) onto sodium form of insolubilized humic acid (INaA) were investigated as a function of time, cation concentration and temperature, utilizing the radiotracer method. The sorption processes are well described by both Freundlich and Dubinin-Radushkevich type isotherms. Thermodynamic constants such as: free energy (Delta G(ads)), enthalpy (Delta H(ads)), entropy (Delta S(ads)) of adsorption were determined....
Quantum chemical treatment of cyanogen azide and its univalent and divalent ionic forms Türker, Burhan Lemi; Atalar, Taner (Elsevier BV, 2008-05-30) An explosive material, cyanogen azide (CN4) and its univalent and divalent anionic and cationic forms have been studied quantum chemically by using different theoretical approaches. In this study, the structures considered have been screened for their relative stabilities. Also, they have been investigated whether the charged forms play a role in the usual explosion process or any electrical charging during storage cause explosion. Various quantum chemical properties are obtained and discussed. It has been ...
An ab initio study on ethylenedinitramine and its monovalent ions Türker, Burhan Lemi (Elsevier BV, 2005-02-14) An explosive material, ethylenedinitramine (EDNA), its mono and di aci forms, as well as its monovalent cation and anion forms have been considered for 6-31G (UHF) type ab initio quantum chemical treatment in order to investigate the stability of EDNA in the neutral form and when charges develop on it exposed to electrical fields during the storage, handling or explosion process. The calculations indicate stable species. The aci forms are less stable than EDNA itself and the anion form is more stable than t...
Tunneling effect and impact sensitivity of certain explosives Türker, Burhan Lemi (Elsevier BV, 2009-09-30) Certain set of benzenoid nitro compounds are considered for DFT calculations at the level of B3LYP/631G(d). The output data are statistically analyzed in order to get some correlations between the various quantum chemical properties and the impact sensitivities of the compounds considered. Two regression equations are given. All the analyses indicate that the impact sensitivity values of these structures are highly dependent on the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital energy and partially dependent on the hi...
Numerical prediction of steady-state detonation properties of condensed-phase explosives Cengiz, F.; Ulaş, Abdullah (Elsevier BV, 2009-12-30) Within the scope of this study, a computer code named BARUT-X has been developed to calculate the detonation properties of C-H-N-O based condensed-phase explosives using the Chapman-Jouguet (C-J) theory. Determination of the detonation properties is performed in chemical equilibrium and steady-state conditions. Unlike other codes in the literature which use steepest descent optimization method, BARUT-X uses a nonlinear optimization code based on Generalized Reduced Gradient algorithm to compute the equilibr...
