Öğe Assessment of airborne heavy metal pollution in soil and lichen in the Meric-Ergene Basin, Turkey(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2015) Hanedar, AsudeIn the present study, accumulations of airborne heavy metals in lichen and soil samples were determined on the basis of pollutant source groups by conducting Zinc (Zn), Lead (Pb), Iron (Fe), Copper (Cu), Chromium (Cr), Cadmium (Cd), Arsenic (As), Cobalt (Co) and Manganese (Mn) analyses on a total of 48 samples collected in the periods of May 2014 and August 2014 from 12 sampling points in a heavily industrialized area, a mixed industrial and residential area, an agricultural area and a background area in the Meric-Ergene Basin, and pH and total organic carbon determination was carried out on soil samples. With the obtained data, heavy metal levels were statistically assessed in detail by being associated with each other and with their probable sources; the accumulations found in soil and lichen samples were compared and spatial variances were set forth. Based on the results, it was observed that heavy metal pollution is at high levels particularly in industrialized areas, and that the differences between the cleanest and most polluted levels determined from soil samples for As, Cr, Cd and Pb reach 10 folds. The highest levels of all heavy metals were determined in both the soil and lichen samples collected from the areas in the south-east part of the region, where industrial activities and particularly leather and chemical industries are concentrated. With the comparison of the indication properties of soil and lichen, it was determined that significant and comparable results can be observed in both matrices.Öğe Characterization and treatment alternatives of industrial container and drum cleaning wastewater: Comparison of Fenton-like process and combined coagulation/oxidation processes(Elsevier Science Bv, 2019) Güneş, Elçin; Demir, Emre; Güneş, Yalçın; Hanedar, AsudeIndustrial container and drum cleaning (ICDC) facilities generated complex wastewater which have organic/inorganic compounds, acids, alkalis, metals, dyes, asbestos, PCBs, chemical cleaning solutions or textile auxiliary chemicals. Treatment of such these wastewaters containing all these pollutants is also very difficult. It is required that the wastewater chemical oxygen demand (COD) is below 1500 mg/L to treat in a centralized wastewater treatment facility in Thrace Region, Turkey. In this study the characterization of ICDC industrial wastewater and treatment alternatives of this wastewater using Fenton-like (FL) process, acidic coagulation-flocculation + H2O2/UV-C (CF + H2O2/UV-C) and acidic coagulation-flocculation + S2O82- (CF + S2O82-) processes have been studied. The existing treatment system already has a biological treatment system after coagulation-flocculation system and couldn't be operated effectively in spite of all the efforts. We have studied processes that can be integrated into the coagulation-flocculation (CF) process used in the existing wastewater treatment plant. According to characterization study, COD values were in the range of 4584-18125 mg/L. The COD of the wastewater used in treatment experiments were 11,853 mg/L. According to the results FL and CF + S2O82- systems were suitable for the COD discharge standards specified for the centralized wastewater treatment plant. The optimum conditions of FL process were 0.8 g/L for FeCl3 and 45 g/L for H2O2 and COD was measured as about 1500 mg/L at these doses. The optimum conditions of CF + S2O82- system were determined as 0.64 g/L FeCl3 for CF and 15 g/L H2O2 doses. At these dosages the highest COD removal efficiency was achieved to 68% after 5 h. All methods used were suitable for the removal of COD, biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), total organic carbon (TOC), total phosphorus (TP) and of some metals. Considering the integration into the existing treatment system and applicability, it is concluded that the FL process is most favorable.Öğe Chemical Characterization of Natural Organic Matter and Determination of Disinfection By-Product Formation Potentials in Surface Waters of Istanbul (Omerli and Buyukcekmece Water Dam), Turkey(Parlar Scientific Publications (P S P), 2014) Avşar, Edip; Toroz, İsmail; Hanedar, Asude; Yılmaz, MerveAll surface and ground waters contain natural organic matter (NOM). NOM is a complex mixture of various organic molecules mainly originating from aquatic organisms, soil and terrestrial vegetation. When chlorine is applied to drinking water processes, it reacts with NOM and forms various types of chlorinated disinfection by-products (DBPs). These halogenated by-products are considered to be possible human carcinogens. Trihalomethanes (THMs) and haloacetic acids (HAAs) are the most widely known DBPs. Through the different reaction reactivity of the NOM components with disinfectants, the isolation and fractionation of NOM into more homogenous components is a better way to determine the DBP formation potential in the waters. Characterization of the NOM is also important for the selection of drinking water treatment processes because the US Drinking Water Regulations force water utilities to further increase DBP precursor removal by removing DOC to below 2 mg/L. In this study, using Omerli (OM) and Buyukcekmece (BC) surface water samples which were obtained over a 1-year period, the NOM content was isolated and chemically fractionated by means of XAD resins. In addition, each fraction was chlorinated separately and THMs and HAAs formation potential (THMFP and HAAFP) was investigated. The results indicated that both water chemical phases changed on a seasonal basis. This affects the DBPFP of waters. Hydrophobic (HPO) fraction was detected to be the highest percentage of the DOM in both OM and BC. But in terms of the DBPFP dominant phase, this changes seasonally. These results indicated that OM and BC surface waters include THM and HAA precursors and variations of these fractions are also effective for treatment process selection and attaining consistency in drinking water quality.Öğe Climate change adaptation exertions on the use of alternative water resources in Antalya, Turkiye(Frontiers Media Sa, 2023) Kılınç, Elif Ayyuce; Tanık, Ayşegül; Hanedar, Asude; Görgün, ErdemThis study presents the payback periods of applying rainwater harvesting (RWH) and/or graywater reuse (GWR) systems as alternative water resources in different building typologies, such as a hospital, shopping mall, and hotel. These buildings are under operation in the Antalya Province of Turkiye, which is a large city having the densest tourism activities. The significance of the work performed through the cost-benefit analyses for the selected case studies basically lies on the water savings while serving to four of the sustainable development goals, namely, clean water and sanitation, sustainable cities and communities, responsible consumption and production, and climate action. These efforts may be considered valuable urban-based solutions toward climate change effects. Thorough surveys on the existing selected typologies are conducted regarding their water consumption and probable water savings via reuse activities. As-built plumbing projects and plans are also investigated during the accomplishment of the comprehensive design work leading to the calculation of the total investment and operation costs of the rainwater harvesting and graywater reuse practices. The up-to-date prices are used in monetary terms, and euro currency is used to make the results more meaningful by the interested parties. All the selected typologies undergo cost-benefit analysis for both of the alternative water reuse systems. The payback periods are calculated as 6, 2, and 9 years for RWH and as 5, 6, and 9 years for GWR for the hospital, shopping mall, and the hotel, respectively. The water savings for RWH varied between 20% and 50% whereas for GWR, the range was 48%-99%. Both of the systems are performed for the shopping mall simultaneously, and the resulting payback period is found to be 5 years, and water saving reached 72%. Recent information on the amortization periods in the literature states that less than a decade demonstrates achievable and highly acceptable applications. As such, the design attempts in this study also correlated with these findings. However, feasibility of these practices may be increased by encouraging the public on their utility and benefit of water savings. As is the case in many of the developed countries, incentives like tax reductions and even exemptions may be realized to achieve better applicability of these alternative technologies.Öğe Concentrations and sources of PAHs at three stations in Istanbul, Turkey(Elsevier Science Inc, 2011) Hanedar, Asude; Alp, Kadir; Kaynak, Burcak; Baek, Jaemeen; Avşar, Edip; Odman, M. TalatThe chemical mass balance model was applied to atmospheric Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) in Istanbul, Turkey. A total of 326 airborne samples were collected and analyzed for 16 PAHs and Total Suspended Particles (TSP) in the September 2006 December 2007 period at three monitoring stations: Yildiz, DMO (urban sites) and Kilyos (rural site). The total average PAH concentrations were 100.66 +/- 61.26, 84.63 +/- 46.66 and 25.12 +/- 13.34 ng m(-3) and the TSP concentrations were 101.16 +/- 53.22, 152.31 +/- 99.12, 49.84 +/- 18.58 mu g m(-3) for Yildiz. DMO and Kilyos stations respectively. At all the sites, the lighter compounds were the most abundant, notably Nap, AcPy and PA. The average correlation values between TSP and total heavier PAH were greater than 0.5 for Yildiz and DMO stations. The patterns of PAH and TSP concentrations showed spatial and temporal variations. PAH concentrations were evaluated for the PAH contribution from four sources (diesel engines, gasoline engines, natural gas combustion, and coal + wood burning). Vehicle emissions appear to be the major source with contributions of 61.2%, 63.3% and 54.1% for Yildiz. DMO and Kilyos stations respectively. Seasonal and yearly variations had different trends for all sites. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V.

Greywater reuse (GWR) activities have become important methods recommended by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) for adaptation to climate change. This study selects GWR from 3 different real typologies, a hotel, a residential building, and an industrial plant planned in Izmir Province of Türkiye, to design greywater systems followed by cost-benefit analyses. The applicability of GWR systems in these typologies has been analyzed, and comparisons have been made. GWR systems at the project design stage eliminate the need for installation modifications. Therefore, it is concluded that new buildings should be designed to integrate these alternative water resource systems. Recovered water through the installation of GWR systems is recommended to be used as flushing water, and the excess for garden irrigation, car washing and cleaning. The payback periods were calculated as 12 years for the hotel and industrial plant and 6 years for the residential building. The water savings were calculated as 46% for the hotel, 44% for the residential building, and 29% for the industrial plant. The results put forth the feasibility of this alternative water resource.Öğe Determination of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in the soil, atmospheric deposition and biomonitor samples in the Meric-Ergene River Basin, Turkey(Springer, 2020) Hanedar, Asude; Güneş, Elçin; Kaykıoğlu, Gül; Çelik, Suna Özden; Cabi, EvrenIn this study, the levels of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) were determined in various components in the Meric-Ergene River Basin which is one of Turkey's intensive industrialization centers and which accordingly has faced significant environmental pollution and has about 1300 industrial plants within its boundaries. In the river basin, 16 USEPA PAHs were measured in a total of 192 samples consisting of soil, lichen, pine needle and total deposition samples for 1 year to represent the four seasons at a total of 12 points in 4 different regions which were determined as intensive industrial area, industrial + residential area, agricultural area and background. According to the results obtained, the total PAH values, in all sampling points, varied between 69.6 and 1277.7 ng/g (dry wt) for soil, lichen and pine needle samples and between 0 and 937.8 ng/m(2)-day for the total deposition samples. The highest values were determined in the fall season for the lichen samples and industrial area. The data obtained were evaluated in terms of spatial and seasonal variations, and according to their molecular weights. The incremental lifetime cancer risks (ILCRs) of exposing to soil PAHs were calculated, and maximum ILCR values were observed in industrial areas for child and adults. The diagnostic ratios were performed for determining the source, and the comparison of bioindication features was made for lichen and pine needle samples by comparing with Koa and Kow values of PAHs.Öğe Determination of the Efficiency of Waste Gas Washing Equipments Used in Jewelery Workshop(2018) Avşar, Edip; Hanedar, Asude; Alp, Kadir; Toröz, İsmailDuring the processes where acid and cyanide are used in jewelery workshops, waste gasesoriginates that hazardous in terms of human and environmental health and material. It is necessary tocontrol these originated gas flows with suitable methods and equipment in the workshop and convertthem to non-hazardous forms. For this purpose, waste gas washing equipment which can be used byvarious producers in jewelery workshops are produced. In this study, waste gas stream hazardousemissions removal efficiency of a system produced for this purpose was examined and the measures to betaken for the continuous efficiency were mentioned. According to results; it has been determined that thenitric acid emissions and the sulfuric acid emissions originated from the iron / copper solvation processare reduced by 94.5% and 88.3%, respectively, by means of waste gas washing system. It has beendetermined that cyanide emissions are reduced by 98.7% by washing the waste gases from the bombingprocess by means of washing system. According to results, treated toxic gaseous emission concentrationswere below the limit.values of Turkish Industrial Air Pollution Control Regulation (TIAPCR) and Netherlands EmissionGuidelines for Air (NER).Öğe Determination of transport processes of nocturnal ozone in Istanbul atmosphere(Inderscience Enterprises Ltd, 2009) Alp, Kadir; Hanedar, AsudeOzone, usually having a minimum value at night, often increase its concentration level which is known as nocturnal ozone. in this study, the magnitude, frequency and timing of nocturnal ozone maxima were determined between May and September for four years (2001-2004) for stations in the Asian and European sides of Istanbul, Turkey. The magnitude and frequency of late and early peaks for peak ozone nights were monitored. A total of 40 days, having secondary ozone maxima due to horizontal transport processes, have been selected, and HYSPLIT model with back trajectory analysis was conducted at different ground levels.Öğe Effect of the Marmaray Project on Air Pollution in Istanbul: An Ive Model Application(Parlar Scientific Publications (P S P), 2011) Saatçıoğlu, Tuğba; Alp, Kadir; Hanedar, Asude; Avşar, EdipThis study evaluates how air pollution in Istanbul for the years 2015 and 2030 will be impacted upon by decreasing automobile usage through the Marmaray Project, which is a new transport system to pass through Europe to the Asian continent. To investigate the effect of the project, the existing transportation situation in Istanbul was determined, and then an emission calculation was performed for the city regarding the cases of with and without the.. Marmaray Project for 2015 and 2030. The emission factors and calculations were performed for three types of pollutants, criteria pollutants (CO, VOC, VOC-evaporated, NOX, SOX, PM), toxic pollutants (1,3-butadiene, acetaldehyde, formaldehyde, NH3, benzene) and greenhouse gases (CO2, CH4, N2O), by applying the International Vehicle Emission modeling technique. The obtained results were evaluated according to pollutant types, road type and driving modes. According to the modeling results, the rate of decrease in emissions will be 12.4% in 2015 and 11.6% in 2030, for all types of pollutants. Because of the increasing usage of gasoline engines, criteria pollutants will be higher, especially in the start mode. The most important factor for toxic pollutants was fuel type, and the decreasing emissions of toxic pollutants will be created by decreasing automobile usage. The development of vehicle technology will cause a decrease in the emissions of greenhouse gases. When the existing situation was compared with 2015 and 2030, it was clearly seen that the emission rate of the without the Marmaray Project situation had a much faster increase than that of with the Marmaray Project.Öğe Evolving a Methodology for Assessing Pesticide Pressure on Water Bodies under Data Scarce Conditions: A Case Study on the Marmara Basin in Türkiye(Mdpi, 2024) Hanedar, Asude; Girgin, Emine; Karaaslan, Yakup; Tanik, AysegulIn this study, current pesticide use was determined on the basis of active substances (ASs) in each water body in the Marmara Basin, which is the most crowded region of Turkiye and where agriculture is intensive. The risks of detected pesticide ASs were then categorized in terms of usage amount, water body monitoring results, and hazardous characteristics. At the same time, a system was proposed for determining pesticide use on an AS basis, based on the product planted in districts that do not have detailed information on AS use. Finally, a methodology for assessing pesticide pressure on water bodies was developed by utilizing pesticide risk based on the determined AS types under data scarcity conditions. The topic undertaken is current and extremely important in the era of food safety, and is related to growing pressure on water, on one hand, and human health and quality of food products, on the other. Data based on ASs are hard to record and store, particularly in developing countries; therefore, a data inventory was initially realized in the study as an essential step towards an assessment procedure. The easy-to-use pesticide pressure determination methodology was developed and applied to the Marmara Basin of Turkiye, ensuring compliance with the Water framework Directive (WFD) and EU Green Deal. Constraints experienced during the application of the developed methodology are put forth with the intention of providing utilizable information to those international scientists who will be interested in practicing it in the future. Therefore, transposition of the methodology to other basins in different countries will be possible. According to 2021 data, 0.04-8.83 kg/ha pesticide and 173 pesticide active substances were used in the basin. ASs were prioritized over four criteria based on the amount of use, hazardous properties, and monitoring results. Consequently, 52 active substances were determined and included in the risk group. Taking these criteria into consideration, all the 276 agricultural water bodies in the basin were revealed to be under pesticide pressure.Öğe Feasibility Study on Rainwater Harvesting of Two Hotels in Different Locations and Features(Tekirdag Namik Kemal University, 2024) Kılınç, Elif Ayyüce; Hanedar, Asude; Tanık, Aysegul; Görgün, ErdemProtecting limited water resources and evaluating alternative water resources are among the important issues of today, as such, Water Efficiency Campaign has been declared in our country in 2023. In this context, rainwater harvesting, one of the accepted alternative options among urban nature-based solutions and green infrastructure applications that can save water from municipal lines in buildings, contribute to the protection of our natural water resources. In this study, the saving rates that may be obtained from the rainwater collected from the roofs of two different hotel complexes in Antalya and Izmir, especially through flush water and green area irrigation, as well as investment and operating costs, were studied in detail and payback periods were calculated. Both hotel examples are real cases; while the hotel in Izmir is a single multi-storey building at the planning stage whereas the hotel in Antalya is a holiday village and is an existing hotel spreading horizontally. The water collected from the roofs of the complex in Antalya was intended to be used entirely as flush water. In this case, it was found that 20% of flush water and 3% of total water consumption could be saved with a payback period of 16 years. In the Izmir Hotel, the situation of the same building both at the planning stage and under operation cases were also examined, and the payback periods were calculated as 9 years and 18 years, respectively. The water saving in this hotel is 12%. These feasible examples can be increased and applied to many building typologies; in fact, when evaluated together with the greywater reuse alternative, shorter payback periods may be possible as well as more water savings.Öğe HAVA KİRLETİCİ PARAMETRELERİNİN HAVA KALİTESİ İNDEKSİNE UZUN ZAMANLI ETKİLERİNİN İNCELENMESİ: ÇERKEZKÖY ORGANİZE SANAYİ BÖLGESİ ÖRNEĞİ(Kırklareli Üniversitesi, 2021) Özel, Hüseyin; Cihan, Pinar; Özcan, H.
