Tea waste amounts may vary according to the quality of the production process and the harvesting of tea. However, a certain amount of tea waste is obtained every year in the countries that produce tea. Such a large and inexpensive biomass resource is not generally evaluated. There are several ways to take advantage of this biomass source and work on this subject is increasing. In this study, the methods of evaluating tea wastes were researched and the data obtained were transferred with their results. Studies collected under five main topics can be promising for the development of existing studies and new research. This study can be a guide for removing losses from the storage of tea waste and making this biomass economically valuable. © 2022 Begell House Inc..

The specific capacitance values of C40H38B2Cl2N4O6 were found to be significantly higher than that of the traditional electrode material, C15H14BNO2 center dot HCl, in both KOH and Na2SO4 electrolyte solutions. In particular, when tested in KOH, the specific capacitance value of C40H38B2Cl2N4O6 was a staggering 3.74 times greater than that of C15H14BNO2 center dot HCl, demonstrating its exceptional energy storage capabilities. The superior performance of C40H38B2Cl2N4O6 can be attributed to its unique porous structure and high surface area, which enhances its ability to store charge.

Spent tea waste (STW) was used for the first time in this study as biomass. The generated existing catalyst was also employed as an active supercapacitor material, demonstrating its dual function. To identify the most active catalyst in the methanolysis of sodium borohydride, the catalyst was functionalized in different H3PO4 concentrations (1-7 M), and different annealing temperatures (200-500 degrees C) and different annealing times (20-80 min). Optimum parameters were determined as 7 M H3PO4, 400 degrees C, and 40 min. The maximum hydrogen production (HPR) value and the activation energy (E-a) were determined as 76,640 mL min(-1) g cat(-1) and 12.03 kJ mol(-1). When the catalyst was investigated in terms of the supercapacitor, the electrode's capacitance at 1 A/g current intensity was found to be 158 F/g utilizing the charge-discharge curve. The catalyst with optimum conditions was structurally and morphologically characterized by Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR), x-ray diffraction (XRD), and scanning electron microscope (SEM) measurements, respectively.Öğe Boron-containing compounds as a new candidate for supercapacitor electrode: simplified synthesis and structural identification properties(Elsevier Science Inc, 2023) Akdemir, Murat; Kivrak, Hilal Demir; Kilic, Ahmet; Beyazsakal, Levent; Kaya, Mustafa; Horoz, SabitIn this study, the performance of two boron-containing compounds, C14H14BNO2 center dot HCl (BCC1) and C38H38B2Cl2N4O4 (BCC2), as electrodes in supercapacitor applications was investigated in the presence of Na2SO4 and KOH electrolyte solutions. The specific capacitance values of the compounds were compared, and the results showed that trivalent boron (BCC1) exhibited higher specific capacitance values than tetravalent boron (BCC2) in both electrolyte solutions. In the presence of Na2SO4 electrolyte solution, the specific capacitance values of the trivalent (BCC1) and tetravalent (BCC2) boron compounds at a current density of 0.75 A/g were 135.21 and 94.87 F/g, respectively, while in the presence of KOH electrolyte, the specific capacitance values of the trivalent (BCC1) and tetravalent (BCC2) boron compounds at a current density of 0.75 A/g capacitance values were determined as 106.62 and 88.25 F/g, respectively. The cycling stability of the electrodes was also studied, and it was found that the capacitance of BCC1 electrode increased gradually over the cycles, while the capacitance of BCC2 electrode decreased. The study suggests that trivalent boron can be a promising material for supercapacitor applications. However, further research is required to optimize the cycling stability of the electrodes and understand the underlying mechanism.Öğe Catalytic activites of a biomaterial (sumac) catalyst in sodium borohyride methanolysis reactions(Elsevier, 2023) Karakas, Duygu Elma; Kaya, Mustafa; Horoz, SabitBiomass waste (sumac) in particular, is an excellent starting point for preparing carbon materials since it is abundant, inexpensive, environmentally beneficial, and renewable. Therefore, the aim of the present study is defatted sumac (DS)-hydrochloric acid (HCl)-cobalt (Co) (DS-HCl-Co) catalyst (it will be used as a catalyst for the first time) in the presence of low activation energy and high hydrogen production rate (HPR). The effect of different parameters such as amount of catalyst, concentration of NaBH4 and tem-perature on HPR value obtained as a result of NaBH4 methanolysis in the presence of DS-HCl-Co catalyst have been investigated. The synthesized catalysts are named DS-HCl (pure) and DS-HCl-Co (supported). While the HPR value (mL*gcat -1 *min -1) obtained as a result of the hydrolysis experiments carried out is 3516.16 for the DS-HCl catalyst, it is 8298.5 for the DS-HCl-Co catalyst. Thus, it should be noted that the HPR value increases approximately 2.36 times in the presence of support material. Our other motivation in the current study is to have low activation energy, which is an important factor that increases catalytic activity. Using the Arrhenius equation, the activation energy for the DS-HCl-Co catalyst is calculated as 31.67 kJ/mol and this value is lower than some reported values when compared to the literature. As a result, it can be said that the DS-HCl-Co catalyst is a unique, inexpensive, and ideal catalyst with high activity values for hydrogen production from alkali hydrides.(c) 2022 Elsevier B.V.

R.; Kaya, Mustafa; Atabani, A. E.The effect of several parameters, such as different Co2+ ratios, burning temperatures, and burning times, was examined by using defatted spent coffee grounds (DSCG) as organic waste to obtain the most effective catalyst for producing hydrogen. Under optimum conditions, the most active catalyst/metal ratio was obtained by burning 50% Co (2+) at 400 degrees C for 90 min. To measure the time-dependent amounts of hydrogen, 0.1 g of DSCG-Co catalyst was dissolved in 10 mL of a methanol solution containing 0.25 g sodium borohydride (NaBH4) at 30 degrees C. The maximum hydrogen generation rate obtained from the methanolysis of NaBH4 at 30 and 60 degrees C was found to be 8749 and 17,283 mL min(-1) gcat(-1), respectively, and the activation energy of the catalyst was found to be 23.2 kJ mol(-1). FTIR, ICP-OES, XRD, BET, and SEM-EDX analyses were performed for the characterization of the prepared DSCG-Co-Cat catalyst. Furthermore, a supercapacitor cell was constructed by using this catalyst as an active substance for electricity storage. The specific capacitance of the electrode at the current density of 1 A/g was calculated as 67 F/g for two-electrode systems. The results of electrochemical analysis of the prepared supercapacitor were found to be similar to the ideal supercapacitor curves. The obtained capacitance values are at very good levels in terms of the capacity and cost factors. The results indicated that the multifunctional capacitor-catalyst material produced by Co-doped waste coffee could constitute an important element in a hybrid system that includes capacitor and catalyst systems that can be installed in the future.

Our study consisted of three stages. In the first stage, the optimum conditions were determined by examining the catalyst under parameters such as different acid types, different carbonization temperatures, and different carbonization times. Thus, based on the maximum HGR value, the optimum conditions were determined as H3PO4, 600 degrees C, and 40 min. In the second step, the effects of parameters such as acid concentration, NaBH4 concentration, catalyst amount, and temperature on HGR were investigated. As a result of methanolysis experiments (condition: catalyst amount: 100 mg, acid amount: 30%, NaBH4 concentration: 2.5%, temperature: 30 degrees C, carbonization temperature: 400 degrees C, and carbonization time: 40 min.), the maximum HGR value, the reaction completion time and activation energy were found as 65,625 mLmin(-1)gcat(-1), 0.233 min, and 4.56 kJ/mol, respectively. It was observed that the obtained activation energy was lower than that of some catalysts available in the literature. In addition, the structural and morphological examination of the banana peel (catalyst) with high HGR and low activation energy revealed that the acid functionalization process was successfully carried out.Öğe Enhanced Photocatalytic Hydrogen Production on Cd-, Te-, Se-, and S-Doped Titanium Dioxide Catalysts(Springer, 2023) Kaya, Sefika; Saka, Ceren; Caglar, Aykut; Kaya, Mustafa; Kivrak, HilalHerein, cadmium (Cd)-, tellurium (Te)-, selenium (Se)-, and sulfur (S)-doped titanium dioxide (TiO2) support material catalysts are prepared via incipient wetness impregnation. Hydrogen generation performances of the prepared catalysts from sodium borohydride (NaBH4) by methanolysis are investigated. Experimental studies are carried out under ultraviolet (UV) illumination and in the dark. The highest initial hydrogen generation rate is reached on 0.1% Cd/TiO2 catalyst under UV illumination.

Spent coffee ground (SCG) is used as a metal-free catalyst for the first time as treated with different chemicals. The aim is to synthesize the metal-free catalyst that can be used for the production of hydrogen, a renewable energy source. SCG, which was collected from coffee shops, was used for preparing the catalyst. To produce hydrogen by sodium borohydride (NaBH4) methanolysis, SCG is pretreated with different chemical agents (H3PO4, KOH, ZnCl2). According to the acid performances, the choice of phosphoric acid was evaluated at different mixing ratios (10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 100%) (w/w), different temperatures (200, 300 and 400 degrees C) and burning times (30, 45, 60 and 90 min) for the optimization of SCG-catalyst. A detailed characterization of the samples were carried out with the aid of FTIR, SEM, XRD and BET analysis. In this study, the experiments were generally carried out effectively under ambient temperature conditions in10 ml methanol solution containing 0.025 g NaBH4 and 0.1 g of the catalyst. The hydrogen obtained in the experimental studies was determined volumetrically by the gas measurement system. When evaluating the hydrogen volume, different NaBH4 concentrations, catalyst amount and different temperature effects were investigated. The effect of the amount of NaBH4 was investigated with 1%, 2.5%, 5%, and 7.5% ratio of NaBH4 while the influence of the concentration of catalyst was carried-out at 0.05, 0.1, 0.15, and 0.25 g catalysts. Four different temperatures were tested (20, 30, 40, 50 and 60 degrees C) to explore the performance of the catalyst under different temperatures. The experiments by using SCG-catalyst treated with H3PO4 reveal that the best acid ratio was 100% H3PO4. The maximum hydrogen production rate with the use of SCG-catalyst for the methanolysis of NaBH(4 )was found to be 8335.5 mL min(-1) gcat(-1). Also, the activation energy was determined to be 9.81 kJ mol(-1). Moreover, it was discovered that there was no decline in the percentage of converted catalyst material.
