Abstract
The relationship between the state of Ru on different supports and catalytic activity in the oxidation of propene and carbon black was investigated for catalysts prepared by different impregnation methods. It is demonstrated that the addition of ruthenium to ceria (CeO2), alumina (Al2O3) and ceria-alumina significantly improves the reactivity: the temperature of carbon black oxidation decreases by 100-140 °C. It is also shown that the addition of Ru to the different supports is very beneficial for the total oxidation of propene. Temperature programmed reduction (TPR) experiments of the catalysts showed that the oxygen species of ruthenium oxides are reduced at low temperatures which is the main reason of its high reactivity in oxidation reactions.
