| Application: | • Photocatalytic disinfection: A study highlighted the synthesis of silver-ruthenium bimetallic zinc oxide nanocomposites using Callistemon viminalis leaf extract. These nanocomposites demonstrated effective photocatalytic disinfection properties against Escherichia coli, presenting a promising application in antimicrobial coatings (Jha et al., 2024   ).• Photoelectrocatalysis for hydrogen production: RuO(2)/TiO(2) heterostructures were investigated for their potential in photoelectrocatalytic hydrogen evolution, combining experimental and theoretical approaches to highlight the efficiency of ruthenium-based materials in renewable energy technologies (Kaikhosravi et al., 2023 ).• Electrochemical applications: The study explored the electrochemical properties of mixed RuOx/MnOx electrodes, prepared by thermal decomposition from different precursors, showing significant implications for their use in energy storage and conversion systems (Petrucci et al., 2022 ).• Catalysis and electrocatalysis: Unprotected and interconnected Ru(0) nano-chain networks were examined for their advantages in catalysis and electrocatalysis, illustrating the benefits of unprotected surfaces for improved reaction kinetics and efficiency (Anantharaj et al., 2016 ). |
