摘要：

Carbon-supported Ru catalyst with alkali promoter is arguably the most significant advancement in ammonia synthesis. However, the insufficient stability of this type of catalysts greatly limits their applications, and carbon methanation is often considered as the reason for deactivation. Here we report that there is no clear correlation between carbon methanation and the loss of activity. Rather, carbon oxidation at high temperature, especially via the formation of carbon monoxide, was found to have a strong influence on the activity and stability of Ru catalysts. As a result, there is a significant increase in carbon loss, leading to the sintering of Ru particles and thereby altered hydrogen adsorption. Consequently, catalytic activity and stability of Ru/C catalysts are reduced. This finding contributes to the development of strategies to design carbon-supported metal catalysts with high activity and stability.
