Summary
Ruthenium nanoparticles supported on zeolite Beta catalysts were prepared by alcohol reduction of RuCl3solution in the presence of PVP. Highly dispersed Ru nanoparticles with mono-size formed on the zeolite surface and their size can be controlled by changing the amount of PVP at same ruthenium loading. In the water/benzene system, Ru-PVP/Beta catalyst for benzene hydrogenation showed high activity, selectivity and good stability.
