Kaygusuz, Abdullah; Vural, Alaaddin; Kaygusuz, Kamil; Sen, Ahmet Dundar; Çavuş, Dilek
Bu çalışma, Erzurum-Tekman Yiğitler köyü civarındaki jeotermal, soğuk ve yüzey sularının hidrokimyasal özelliklerini, kökenini ve kullanım olanaklarını belirlemek amacıyla gerçekleştirilmiştir. İnceleme alanında jeotermal sistemin ana hazne kayacını peridotit ve gabro türü kayaçlardan oluşan Şahvelet Ofiyolitleri ile Kösehasan Formasyonu içindeki kireçtaşları, örtü kayacını ise masif yapıdaki Bingöldağı volkanitleri oluşturmaktadır. İncelenen jeotermal suların sıcaklık değerleri 43-49 °C, pH değerleri 7.03-8.33 ve EC değerleri 950-1550 µS/cm arasında değişmektedir. Analizler sonucunda, jeotermal, yeraltı ve yüzey sularının Ca-Mg-HCO₃ fasiyesinde olduğu belirlenmiştir. Piper, Schoeller ve Gibbs diyagramları ile yapılan sınıflandırmalar, aynı kaynaktan beslenen tek bir hidrokimyasal sistemin varlığına işaret etmektedir. (Ca+Mg)-(HCO₃+SO₄) diyagramı, Ca/Mg, HCO₃/SiO₂ ve Ca+Mg/HCO₃ oranları, CAI-I ve CAI-II indeksleri, kaya-su etkileşimine bağlı olarak su kimyasının genelde karbonat daha az oranda da silikat ayrışma süreçlerinden etkilendiğine işaret etmektedir. Hazne kaya sıcaklıkları silis jeotermometreleri ile 52-93°C, entalpi-silis karışım modeli ile 127-141°C hesaplanmıştır. Bu durum, akışkanın sığ seviyelerde %28-46 oranında soğuk yeraltı suları ile karıştığını göstermektedir. İçme suyu standartları açısından; soğuk kaynak suları uygun, yüzey suları ise sulama için elverişli bulunmuştur. Jeotermal sular; yüksek Ca, Fe, Mn, As ve NH4 derişimleri nedeniyle içme amaçlı kullanılamazken, kimyasal değerleri bakımından kaplıca kullanım potansiyeline sahiptir.

Bahadir, Ali; Kar, Turgay; Keles, Sedat; Kaygusuz, Kamil
Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to investigate fast pyrolysis of maple fruit as an energy sources. This could serve as a solution to the energy sources problem. Design/methodology/approach - Fast pyrolysis of maple fruit (samara) was achieved in a fixed bed reactor. The pyrolysis experiments have been conducted on the sample of maple seeds to particularly determine the effects of pyrolysis temperature, particle size and sweep gas flow rate on the pyrolysis product yields. Findings - The oil of maple fruit from fast pyrolysis has good properties to be a potential candidate as a biofuel or as a source of chemicals. In addition to being environmentally desirable, it can reduce the energy cost, e.g. that Turkey imports a majority of its energy. Originality/value - The use of maple fruit for fast pyrolysis and pyrolysis conditions impact on the yields of pyrolysis liquid can be considered as novel aspects of this paper.

Bilgen, Selcuk; Keles, Sedat; Kaygusuz, Abdullah; Sari, Ahmet; Kaygusuz, Kamil
Renewable energy sources have been important for humans since the beginning of civilization. For centuries and in many ways, biomass has been used for heating and cooking. Many centuries ago mankind was already utilizing the clearly visible power of water for mechanical drive purposes, as was also the case with wind. On the other hand, Turkey, with its young population and growing energy demand per person, its fast growing urbanization, and its economic development, has been one of the fast growing power markets of the world for the last two decades. It is expected that the demand for electric energy in Turkey will be 300 billion kWh by the year 2010 and 580 billion kWh by the year 2020. Turkey is heavily dependent on expensive imported energy resources that place a big burden on the economy and air pollution is becoming a great environmental concern in the country. In this regard, renewable energy resources appear to be the one of the most efficient and effective solutions for clean and sustainable energy development in Turkey. Turkey's geographical location has several advantages for extensive use of most of these renewable energy sources. This article presents a review of the potential and utilization of the renewable energy sources in Turkey. (c) 2006 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Kaygusuz, Kamil; Kaygusuz, Abdullah
As a consequence of the fast-growing energy requirements and the increasing use of low-grade domestic fuels, air pollution has increased considerably in recent years in Turkey. Since the energy demand is projected to continue to increase rapidly in the future also, energy-supply strategies are required to control air-pollutant emissions in a cost-efficient way, taking into account the legal emission-control regulations that have been enforced. This article extensively concentrates on energy and environmental impacts in Turkey only. Energy utilization and its major environmental impacts are discussed from the standpoint of sustainable development, including anticipated patterns of future energy use and subsequent environmental issues. Several aspects relating to energy utilization, renewable energy, energy efficiency, environment, and sustainable development are examined from both current and future perspectives in the country. In this study, air-pollutant emissions due to power generation and their harmful effects on the environment are also estimated.

Kaygusuz, Kamil; Kaygusuz, Abdullah
This paper discusses the potential and utilization of geothermal energy in Turkey. Geothermal energy for electricity generation has been produced commercially since 1913, and for 4 decades on the scale of hundreds of MW both for electricity generation and direct use. Utilization has increased rapidly during the last 3 decades. In 2000, geothermal resources were identified in over 80 countries, and there are quantified records of geothermal utilization in 58 countries in the world. The worldwide use of geothermal energy amounts to 49 TWh/y of electricity and 53 TWh/y for direct use. On the other hand, Turkey is one of the countries with significant potential in geothermal energy. Resource assessments have been made many times by the Mineral Research and Exploration Directorate (MTA) of Turkey. The main uses of geothermal energy are mostly moderate and low temperature applications such as space heating and domestic hot water supply, greenhouse heating, industrial processes, heat pumps, and electricity generation. The data accumulated since 1962 show that the estimated geothermal power and direct use potential are about 4500 MWe and 31500 MWt, respectively. Present applications have shown that geothermal energy in Turkey and other countries is clean and much cheaper compared to the other fossil and renewable energy sources.
