Who is MRC-ESERI TUBITAK-The Scientific and Technical Research Council of Turkey The TUBITAK Marmara Research Center (MRC), one of the research and development (R&D) units of TUBITAK, was established in 1972. MRC 700 trained and experienced personnel, about 400 researchers. More Information www.mam.gov.tr/english/index.html
Who is MRC-ESERI • TUBITAK-MRC is constituted of 5 institutes, namely:Information Technologies Research Institute • Energy Systems and Environmental Research Institute • Materials and Chemical Technologies Research Institute • Food Science and Technology Research Institute • Earth and Marine Sciences Research Institute
History of Dioxin in MRC-ESERI January 03: Market searched for Dioxin in Turkey & EU February 03: Dioxin study business plan prepared March 03: EPA, EN Standards translated to Turkish April 03: Institutions for training searched in Europe May 03: PCDD and PCDF sources, formation and toxicity examined
History of Dioxin in MRC-ESERI June 03: materials and equipments ordered for EN-1948/1-2 ; Contact with MoE, metal recovery firms searched in Turkey for this project August 03: Extraction and clean-up systems are performed for EN-1948/1-2, first trials September 03: Calibration of HRMS with standards done October 03: The results are validated for Accreditation, Recoveries %80-120 for TCDD/F, PeCDD/F, HxCDD/F and %100-140 for OCDD/F
History of Dioxin in MRC-ESERI November 03: CRM for accreditation ordered; the first real extraction and clean-up trials from adsorbent (XAD-2) studied December 03: The mistakes of our experimental system searched, clarifying the procedure January 04: Obtained the higher recoveries in the analyse of CRM
Our Capabilities-Mass Spectrometry Lab • MRC-Mass Spectrometry Laboratory • 1 pc GC with FID Dedector (FISONS) • 1 pc GC with MS Dedector (FISONS) • 1 pc Head Space Sampler (Perkin Elmer) • 1 pc Thermal Desorber (Perkin Elmer) • 1 pc HPLC (Shimadzu) • 1 pc HRMS (Micromass) with GC (without autosampler)

Main Dioxin Sources in Turkey * Waste Incineration (1 Industrial,7 medical waste incinerator) * Ferrous and Non-Ferrous Metal Production (3 Iron ore sintering facilities, >100 foundries, >100 sec.aluminium producer) * Power Generation and Heating (5 Power Plants with fossil fuel, 5 Power Plants with Natural gas, 1 municipal compost gas incinerator) * Production of Mineral Products (40 Cement facilities, >10 Lime prod.facilities
Main Dioxin Sources in Turkey * Uncontrolled Combustion Processes (Forest fires 8514 Ha/year 2002, Agricultural residue burning) * Production of Chemicals ( 1 Petrochemistry Facility-156.000 ton/year PVC, 54 pulp and paper facilities-1.762.500 ton paper/year 2003) * Disposal/Landfill (The most important problem in Turkey, >%80 of daily municipal wastes are handling with wild landfill)
Lead-Zinc-Copper Recovery Facilities
Results -MRC will great appreciate getting a role in this project -MRC will gain strategic assistance in the scope of this project -Dioxin subject will gain a particular attention by industry and governmental institutions
