Abstract

The exsolution of ruthenium from a 3 at% ruthenium-substituted LaFeO3 (LFR3) perovskite oxide is meticulously designed to produce a high-performance ruthenium-supported catalyst with high atomic efficiency. A high-temperature redox pretreatment at 800 °C enriches the Ru concentration in the near-surface region of LFR3, while a subsequent mild reduction step with H2 at 500 °C leads to the Ru exsolution from the Ru-enriched near-surface region (LFR3_Redox_500R), resulting in a high density of small particles that are not passivated by LaOx. The performance of this catalyst is evaluated through its application in two prototypical catalytic reactions: the combustion of propane (oxidation reaction) and the reduction of CO2 by hydrogenation (reduction reaction). For both reactions, the activity of the redox-pretreated sample LFR3_Redox_500R exhibits a significant increase compared to the activity of the untreated sample (LFR3_500R). In the catalytic hydrogenation of CO2, the high selectivity profile undergoes a transition from CO for LFR3_500R to methane for LFR3_Redox_500R.
