Environmentally friendly copper electroplating process development
Ülgüdür, Nilüfer; İmamoğlu, İpek; Department of Environmental Engineering (2013)
Electroplating is the deposition of a metal by applying electrical current in the presence of an electrolyte. Electroplating industry creates wastes that are heavy metal containing, highly conductive, strongly acidic/alkaline in composition. Many industries are now enforced to prevent their wastes from being formed via pollution prevention guidelines. It is both economically and environmentally more advantageous to consider pollution prevention before establishment of a process. In this study, waste minimiz...
Sustainable carbon constrained energy generation perspectives
Çubukçu, Nilay; Tarı, İlker; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2021-12-07)
There is a consensus that climate change, which is about to become a major disaster for humankind, is largely due to anthropogenic activities. Greenhouse gases (dominated by CO2) emissions play a dominant role there. Majority of the emissions results from energy consumption. Today, mitigating CO2 emissions consists one of the fundamental missions of the humankind. One such task is to reduce the global energy demand. Enhancing efficiency, recycling, promoting behavioral changes to reduce energy demanding act...
Environmentally responsive design in architecture with Ken Yeang's design agenda under focus

Sustainable Rubberized Pervious Concrete
ERMAN, TUNÇER; Akgül, Çağla; Hsien Yang, Shih; Department of Civil Engineering (2023-1-26)
Every year, approximately 1.5 billion tires are getting discarded. This number is expected to reach ~5 billion by 2030. Tire landfills create a significant fire hazard and not an ideal solution. Hence, disposal of waste tires is prohibited in many countries; instead, they should be recovered and recycled. This thesis aims to produce pervious concrete – a special concrete with high porosity that allows water to pass directly through, hence reducing the surface runoff and allowing groundwater recharging – uti...
Cleaner Energy Production Technologies For Fossil Fuels
Aksoy, Ayşegül; Atımtay, Aysel (Springer, 1995-01-01)
In recent years, the development of new technologies to generate clean energy has been a great concern for pollution prevention. There is an increasing demand in the world for energy due to industrialization. This increasing demand forces the scientists to investigate new technologies for production of electricity in a more efficient way. Development of more efficient processes for energy production also aims the process to be cleaner from environmental point of view.
