Enhanced degradation of organic pollutants over Cu-doped LaAlO3 perovskite through heterogeneous Fenton-like reactions

Cu-doped LaAlO3 perovskite (LaAl1−xCuxO3) was synthesized via a Pechini-type sol–gel process for the oxidative degradation of persistent organic compounds. The characterization results show that Cu was incorporated into the structure of sphere-like LaAlO3 and formed the bond of La/AlOCu. LaAl0.95Cu0.05O3 performed excellent activity and stability for the degradation and mineralization of various organic pollutants through heterogeneous...
