Abstract

An Iron Separator: Petroleum processing initially yields a mixture of saturated and unsaturated hydrocarbons—the feedstocks for fuels, plastics, pharmaceuticals, and a wide range of other commercial products. At present, distillation is the primary means of separating the components of this mixture. A sorbent or membrane-based approach to separation could reap substantial energy savings. Bloch et al. (p. 1606 ) found that an iron-based metal organic framework material shows promise for very efficient sorption-based separation of ethane and ethylene, propane and propylene, and several other light hydrocarbon mixtures. Neutron diffraction directly revealed the binding motifs at the iron centers that selectively pinned down the olefins while the saturated hydrocarbons passed by.

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.
