A hydrophobic FeMn@Si catalyst increases olefins from syngas by suppressing C1 by-products
Abstract
Keeping water away: Syngas, a mixture of carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrogen, allows nonpetroleum resources such as biomass and natural gas to be converted to chemical products through Fischer-Tropsch synthesis. However, for the production of olefins, a key feedstock for other chemicals, about 50% of the CO is transformed to carbon dioxide and methane. Xu et al. decreased the selectivity for these undesired by-products to under 25% by modifying their catalyst, nanoparticles of iron doped with manganese and coated with a silica, with methyl groups (see the Perspective by Xie). This hydrophobic surface shortens the retention time of water on the catalyst surface to avoid the unwanted side reactions, and also suppresses oxidation of the metal carbide catalyst that forms under reaction conditions.

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.
