Ruthenium ndi imodzi mwazinthu za platinamu. Kugwiritsa ntchito kofunikira kwambiri ndikupanga othandizira. Calatinim-Ruthenium-rithenium imatha kugwiritsidwa ntchito kuthandizira ma cell a methanol ndi mpweya woipa; Crubbbs Catalysts imatha kugwiritsidwa ntchito pa ma metate metishes. Kuphatikiza apo, mankhwala a Ruthenium amathanso kugwiritsidwa ntchito popanga filimu yoyandikana ndi maonekedwe opepuka mu maselo okhudzidwa ndi utoto.

Ruthenium ndi mtundu wa zitsulo zokongola kwambiri ndi ntchito yapamwamba kwambiri ndipo imagwiritsidwa ntchito m'machitidwe ambiri, monga hydrogenation Zochita ndi makhadi oxidation. Kuphatikiza pa mikhalidwe ya ruthenium, nano-rithenium waya ali ndi mawonekedwe a nano-zida ndi ma aya apamwamba kwambiri.
