Boosting the catalytic oxidation of ethane over Ce-doped Ru/Co 3 O 4 : cooperation of electron-rich Ru and oxygen vacancies
Abstract
The introduction of Ce increases oxygen vacancy concentration, enhancing the adsorption and activation of O 2 . The formation of electron-rich Ru sites promotes C–H bonds cleavage. These effects synergistically boost ethane oxidation.
