Accumulation of heavy metals from motor vehicles in transplanted lichens in an urban area
Çiçek, Arzu; Koparal, Ali Savaş; Aslan, A.; Yazıcı, K. (Taylor & Francis Inc, 2008)Thalli of the lichens Pseudevernia furfuracea, Usnea longissima, Lobaria pulmonaria, and Peltigera praetextata were taken from unpolluted areas and transplanted to a downtown site in Erzurum, Turkey. Heavy metals copper ... -
An alternative method for the removal of surfactants from water: Electrochemical coagulation
Önder, Ebru; Koparal, Ali Savaş; Öğütveren, Ülker Bakır (Elsevier Science BV, 2007)Feasibility of the removal of surfactants from model solution and the polluted water sample by electrochemical coagulation utilizing Fe2+ ions from a soluble anode as an alternative method was investigated in this study. ... -
The assessment of air quality and identification of pollutant sources in the Eskisehir region Turkey using Xanthoria parietina (L.) Th.Fr. (1860)
Çiçek, Arzu; Koparal, Ali Savaş (Inst Lebensmitteltechnologie Analytische Chemie, 2003)Lichens, due to their structural properties, can accumulate heavy metals prone to cause atmospheric pollution in their tissues close to the respective atmospheric concentrations. In this study, based on this property of ... -
Assessment of environmental effects of the coal used in the Seyitomer thermal power plant (Turkey) on white willow
Çiçek, Arzu; Koparal, Ali Savaş (Taylor & Francis Inc, 2006)Thermal power plants increase local pollution through SO x , NO x , volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and oils containing primarily particulates (including heavy metals) and increase global pollution through CO2 , the ... -
