Identification and manipulation of active centers on perovskites to enhance catalysis of peroxymonosulfate for degradation of emerging pollutants in water

A-site defective La2−xCuO4 perovskite-type oxides for efficient oxidation of cyclohexylbenzene

“…Therefore, perovskite-type oxides are emerging as a promising alternative for various advanced clean energy and environmental applications. Among various perovskite oxides, La-based oxides, [19][20][21] such as LaFeO 3 , LaMnO 3 , and La 2 CuO 4 , have been reported to exhibit excellent catalytic performance in the degradation reactions of antibiotics, thanks to the abundance of oxygen vacancies. More interestingly, Zhang et al have recently reviewed and reported a large number of perovskite-based catalysts applied in advanced oxidation processes for environmental and energy applications.…”
