There is no practical apparatus built anywhere in the world to do this, but there are three viable ways:
1) CENTRIFUGE
You would need to design and build a centrifuge capable of maintaining 2400degF molten steel in each balanced crucible during the fast rate spin process. At some point during the spin, the electricity is to be turned off maintaining the molten state and be allowed to cool (and solidify) while the centrifuge is still spinning.
The advantage to a centrifuge is not only will it separate carbon from iron, but other elements such as Molybdenum, Nickel, Chromium, etc would be separated as well. However at the end of the process, the carbon can easily be separated via flaking or cracking off the metal much like charcoal being scraped from a grille. For the other elements separated, you will notice evidence of the rapid color change from each element in the solidified resultant. Separation is much harder, but a laser or water jet cutter can be used to physically separate each elemental metal from each other.
2) CHEMICAL TITRATION
Consult a chemical engineer for the proper titration solutions required to separate the carbon from the iron.
3) OXYGEN INJECTION
Although very time consuming and expensive, it is possible to take molten steel and be poured through a diverted flowing stream of O2. The opposite side of the airstream would become CO2 and the metal settling in the ladle below would be iron. However I'm sure this process would need to be repeated several times to attain the desired level of purity.
What else can I help you with?
How would you get iron from a mixture of iron and flour?
One way to separate iron from flour is by using a magnet. The magnet will attract the iron particles, allowing you to separate them from the flour. Alternatively, you could mix the mixture with water, as iron will sink to the bottom while flour will float, making it easier to separate them.
How do you you separate a liquid from a liquid?
It really depends on which two liquids you are try to separate. The most basic method would be distillation, or boiling one of the liquids and collecting the condensation. If the liquids don't mix well, i.e., oil and water, a centrifuge can be used to separate the two.
Is Iron oxide formed from three iron molecules and four oxygen molecules?
Probably you mean Iron and Oxygene atoms? It is a mix of oxides Fe2O3*FeO.
How do you separate a mixture that contains Iron fillings sand water and rubbing alcohol?
Here's my suggestion: Pour the full mixture through a filter paper. This will leave the water/alcohol mix in the bottom of the beaker and the iron/sand mix in the filter paper. To separate the iron and sand, I'd wait for the mix to dry and spread the mix out on a flat piece of paper. By using a magnet, you can pick out the iron filings- leaving the sand behind. The water/alcohol mix poses more problems! Hopefully, a layer will form between the two due to different densities etc. If so, one layer can be removed via a pipette. However, a more tedious method could be to... Set up a flask and sit it on a tripod and gauze. Put the mixture in the flask. GENTLY heat the flask with a Bunsen burner, with a distillation tube fitted to the flask ( also known as a reflux condenser). If the mixture isn't allowed to boil, the alcohol will evaporate away, go down the distillation vessel and into a clean beaker, leaving the water behind. Hope this is adequate?!
How will you separate a mixture of aluminium and iron filings and sugar?
To retrieve the iron just use a magnet. To retrieve the sulphur just put the remaining mixture in water and dissolve it. Then using a filter paper filter the solution, the sulphur which is not soluble will remain on the filter paper and to retreive the sugar from the solution just re-crystallize it.

Can silver and iron mix?
Silver and iron can mix, but they do not form a solid solution as they have limited solubility in each other. If they are melted together, they may form separate layers due to differences in densities. In general, it's not common to intentionally mix silver and iron due to the lack of compatibility.
How do you separate iron sand salt water with a magnet?
Simply hover the magnet over the mix and all the iron shreddings should float up to the magnet because of its attraction to it.
How will you separate chalk powder iron filling?
Use a magnet to remove the iron filings. Filter the remainder to separate the insoluble chalk powder from the water. Wash and dry the iron filings as they will be contaminated. Dry the chalk powder to remove traces of water.
How could you separate a mixture of iron fillings and sulfur powder?
One method is to use a magnet to separate the iron fillings from the sulfur powder, as iron is magnetic but sulfur is not. Another method is to mix the mixture with a solvent that dissolves the sulfur powder, leaving the iron fillings behind. Lastly, heating the mixture can also cause the sulfur to sublimate, leaving the iron fillings behind.
What do you get if you mix iron and hydrochloric acid?
Assuming iron II.Fe + 2HCl --> FeCl2 + H2A salt, iron II chloride ( also known as ferrous chloride ), and hydrogen gas.
What do you call an iron and sulfur mix?
An iron and sulfur mix is called iron sulfide, which is also known as ferrous sulfide or iron (II) sulfide.
How do you separate a mixture of sand and iron filings?
By using a magnet to separate the iron filings, you'd be left with the sulfur and sand mix. Selecting a solvent for the sulfur will allow you to dissolve the sulfur, and then all you have to do is put the sand in a filter and wash the sulfur through with the solvent.
What do you get when you mix aluminum and oxygen and iron?
When you mix aluminum and oxygen, you get aluminum oxide. If you mix iron with aluminum oxide, the aluminum will react with the iron oxide, forming a thermite reaction that produces molten iron and aluminum oxide slag.
How would you separate gold dust from a mixture of iron filings and salt?
Mix with water, the pass through a filter paper. The salt will be dissolved in the water so it will be removed with the water, leaving the iron filings and gold dust on the filter paper. Leave this to dry then separate off the iron filings using a magnet, leaving behind the gold.
What do you need to mix to get Iron bars in runescape?
Iron and coal.
What happens when you mix iron with steam?
Iron is corroded in steam.
