Abstract

Cleaning Solid Oxide Fuel Cells: Solid oxide fuel cells, which operate between 500° and 1000°C, transport oxygen through a ceramic material. At these temperatures, metals that catalyze hydrocarbon reforming reactions can also be incorporated so that conventional fuels such as methane can power the cell. One problem, however, has been rapid deactivation by sulfur impurities and carbon buildup. Yang et al. (p. 126 ; see the Perspective by Selman ) report that doping of a barium zirconate-cerate with the rare-earths Y and Yb creates a material that transports both protons and oxygen ions at 750°C. This material, when used with nickel at the fuel cell anode, resists deactivation even when traces of hydrogen sulfide are present, apparently through enhanced ability to supply or remove water during surface reactions.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
