Assessment of the Levels of Potentially Toxic Elements Contained in Natural Bentonites Collected from Quarries in Turkey

Altıkulaç, Aydan; Turhan, Şeref (American Chemical Society, 2023)

Potentially toxic elements (PTEs) are an important type of pollutant, causing constant and far-reaching concerns around the world due to their increase in the mining process. Bentonite formed by the alteration of glass-rich ...

Determination of concentrations of non-volatile elements in fly ash released from coal combustion using EDXRF

Altıkulaç, Aydan; Turhan, Ş.; Kurnaz, Aslı; Hançerlioğulları, Aybaba (TAYLOR & FRANCIS LTD, 2022)

In this study, the concentration of thirteen non-volatile elements in coal fly ash samples obtained from the Kangal coal-fired thermal power plant located in Sivas province of Turkey was determined using an energy dispersive ...

Distribution of elemental compositions of zeolite quarries and calculation of radiogenic heat generation

Turhan, S; Tokat, S; Kurnaz, A; Altıkulaç, Aydan (Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2020)

The effectiveness ofthe use of zeolites in different industrial processes depends on their physical-chemical properties that are distinctly connected to their geological deposits. In this study, major oxides, eco-toxic ...

Ecological assessment of heavy metals in soil around a coal-fired thermal power plant in Turkey

Turhan, S.; Garad, A. M. K.; Hancerliogullari, A.; Kurnaz, A.; Goren, E.; Duran, C.; Aydin, A.; Altıkulaç, Aydan (Springer, 2020)

In this study, heavy metal concentrations in agricultural surface soil (0-5 cm) samples collected from the area around the Kangal lignite-fired thermal power plant were determined using energy-dispersive X-ray fluorescence ...

Evaluation of Metal Contamination in Soil Samples Around Thermal Power Plant in Turkey

Turhan, Şeref; Altıkulaç, Aydan (Amer Inst Physics, 2018)

Thermal power plants lead to major environmental problems such as the generation of acid gases and fly ash. Heavy metals contained in fly ash have potential risks for human health and soil and water ecosystems. Therefore, ...

Evaluation of terrestrial radionuclide levels and concomitant radiological risks of bentonites used in many industries

Altıkulaç, Aydan; Kurnaz, Aslı; Turhan, Şeref; Metin, Onur; Duran, Celalettin (TAYLOR & FRANCIS LTD, 2022)

Bentonite is a soft, porous, easily shaped, and absorbent material rich in aluminum, sodium, and potassium. Bentonite is a mineral widely utilized as drilling mud, ore pelletizing, absorbent/adsorbent, bleaching agent, ...

GAMMA RAY RADIATION RESEARCH IN BUILDING MATERIALS

Altıkulaç, Aydan (PARLAR SCIENTIFIC PUBLICATIONS, 2021)

Building materials used in the construction industry, such as marble, granite, ceramics, travertine, and cimstone, are of crustal origin and contain natural radiation. While these materials act as a source of natural ...
