Perovskite-metal-oxide-based advanced oxidation technology for water treatment application

Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) currently used for water treatment are usually chemical and energetical intensive processes. In this project, Strontium Ferrite (SFO) was explored as an alternative material for bifunctional AOP for cost-effective water treatment application. The perovskite SFO me...
