Adsorptive Treatment of Heavy metal-contaminated water using Sawdust (biomass) This sounds interesting. You can follow these steps and may modify them to suit your need. You will need to divide the entire work into 6 stages: Stage 1 1. Sampling: a collection of the water samples at different sources/spots within the research zone/site. 2. Analyzing the heavy metal content of the water samples before treatment (record the concentrations and focus on the most prevalent heavy metal) 3. Storage of the water samples for further use. Stage 2 1. Collection of adsorbent (sawdust) samples 2. Pretreatment of the sawdusts (washing with distilled water, drying and pulverized to uniform particle size) and label each (example S1, S2, S3) 3. EDTA functionalization of the S1, S2, S3 to produce heavy-metal selective adsorbent which can be named S1-EDTA, S2-EDTA and S3-EDTA. Note: You will have 6 samples (Functionalized sawdust and raw pre-treated sawdust) 4. Pulverized all the samples (adsorbents) to a uniform size (note down the size) Stage 3 Characterization: each adsorbent sample must be characterized. These are common characterization you can do: a. Proximate/ultimate analysis b. Boehm analysis c. pH Point zero charge determination/zeta potential determination d. Surface area (BET), pore volume and pore distribution e. FTIR, SEM, TGA Stage 4 Batch Adsorption process: here consider varying the following parameters for each adsorbent a. adsorbate pH b. adsorbent dosage c. Treatment temperature Stage 5 1.Kinetics (varying the treatment time): Consider fitting your data into pseudo-first order, second order, Elovich, intra-particle diffusion etc. 2. Isotherm (Varying adsorbate concentration): Consider fitting your data into Langmuir, Freundlich, Redlich-Peterson, Temkin etc 3. Thermodynamic study (obtained from the temperature change) Stage 6 Desorption, regeneration and recycling of the spent adsorbents Economic and cost-benefit analysis regarding the treatment tech. Comparative performance of your adsorbents and reported adsorbents for heavy metal removal NOTE: Functionalizing with EDTA will be useful to compare the performance of the adsorbent. by comparing the concentration of the heavy metals before treatment to after the treatment. Why EDTA? See below: EDTA is a chemical that binds and chelates metals such as chromium, iron, lead, mercury, copper, aluminium, nickel, zinc, calcium, cobalt, manganese, and magnesium from water......and when they are bound, they can't have any effects and they are removed from the water. If that's my master student above steps are what I will give.....please visit Science directly to find suitable articles to support you. Also, you can email me, I will send you some of my recent top-quality journals of adsorption treatment of heavy meta Hello bros. You talked about Turkish govt paying publishers. Does this apply for Cuprus schools alone or with Turkish Universities too abeg? 3 Likes 2 Shares |

Abeg bros, does money for publications apply for schools in Turkey too? wip7: |
Re: Thread For PHD Students by wip7: 6:16am On Nov 03, 2019 |
TadeDetule: TadeDetule: Yes, the universities in Turkey even enjoy more funding because Turkey is the mainland why Cyprus Island. All reputable papers published from universities in Turkey can get paid. Reputable means: Your research article must be indexed in either SCI, SSCI, SCi-expanded and must be on WOS (web of science). What they paper per journal depends on the quality and how they qualify journal. The highest pay this year is 15,000TL (950 k Naira) per paper and the lowest is 500 TL. Also, Turkey gives project funding to Universities in Turkey and Cyprus. In 2015, I got this project funding which I designed magnetic resins to recover valuable from Mediterranean sea....Now they give around 720,000TL (roughly 45 million naira) yearly for up to 3 years. Are you studying in Turkey? if yes apply via Tubitak! Best wishes! 3 Likes 2 Shares |
Re: Thread For PHD Students by TadeDetule: 4:30pm On Nov 03, 2019 |
This is jaw-dropping ooo. Yeah, I am studying in Turkey but then I heard you can only apply through your supervisor before one could get funded by Tubitak. Someone even said its mainly for nationals. There is really a mixed description of everything jare. wip7: |
Re: Thread For PHD Students by wip7: 4:38pm On Nov 03, 2019 |
TadeDetule: There is no nationality clause. Anybody can get this funding and also get paid by TUBITAK irrespective of the nationality. To get paid for the publication by TUBITAK you don’t need anybody to apply through, you only need your published paper and bank account detail as simple as ABC....do you have any published paper now if yes, I can guide you how to get the money too simple.... Last 2 months I got 33,000 TL directly paid to my account while i was even teaching in Canada. Do you have any published paper, tell me The name of the journal I will tell you how much you will be paid ... To be funded by TUBITAK, there are lots of funding that TUBITAK gives, you just need to see the one that suits your skills and qualifications. Although, TUBITAK 1001 you have to be Phd holder to be considered, so your supervisor can apply and then take any student to work on the project and you get paid monthly. 5 Likes 2 Shares |

You are such a good guide here. No one is telling us all these here. I am in Nigde Omer Halisdemir University. All they keep telling us is just to write reviews and submit to them. I don't have one yet. The one I have has been published before I left Nigeria. I plan to put up something reasonable from my Master's thesis before the year runs out though. wip7: 2 Likes 1 Share |

BiggyB242: The publication must be reputable (must be SCI, SSCl, WOS). Since in this particular case, we are talking about Turkey, only researchers with Turkish affiliation or where there articles carry Turkey as address are paid and funded. 3 Likes 2 Shares |

Re: Thread For PHD Students by benji93: 12:05am On Nov 06, 2019 |
Hello Bros. Master's student at Bilkent here .Completed my Bsc at ODTU. Note: I may not be well equipped to provide a more informative advice, but i am doing thos anyway. To the best of my knowledge the choice of students for project largely depends on the project coordinator's exposure-past experiences, including education, and their mode of recruitment .At ODTU for instance some professors usually have at least a project under their coordination at a particular point in time and recruit student researchers from a course they offered some semesters prior. Since the number of student researchers allowed for these Tubitak projects is limited, the spaces get filled up by students-local or foreign- from the feeder system, unless the project is in collaboration with the ministry of defence. So there is a chance that admission of a foreign student into an Msc program won't come with the financial benefit of working on a Tubitak projects, or there won't be an opportunity to get on a Tubitak project. They could get it along the line though depending on the educational relationship a foreign student establshes with his/her advisor. Honestly the number of Tubitak projects awarded to each institution depends on the quality of research conducted at that institution, hence the research productivity of researchers. It also depends on the research area. So the smaller the number of Tubitak projects available the lesser the likelihood of you getting a Tubitak project to work on. Establishing a good student-professor relationship could prove vital, although some of the professors don't care. They would still take their countrymen over you. ![]() TadeDetule: |

ejiykzazi2007: Yeah, an abstract is the summarized version of the literature review, methodology applied, results, trend and quantitative conclusions. In your case, kindly supply them with 200-400 words if there is no word count: The abstract can be structured in three parts: 1. The first part is the introduction section, give the background, the global and specific issues, and the hypothesis (about 3-4 sentences). This should take 40%. 2. The second part abstracts: the proposed/frequently used methodology for data gathering, give a brief overview of the proposed sampling/methods and techniques to use in gathering your data (about 2-4 sentences). This part should take 50% of the abstract. 3. The third part abstracts: the Proposed solution you intend to provide to the challenges/issues in the first part. This should take 10% of the abstract.
