Abstract
Since photocatalytic and electrocatalytic technologies are crucial for tackling the energy and environmental challenges, significant efforts have been put into exploring advanced catalysts. Among them, perovskite type ABO3 oxides show great promising catalytic activities because of their flexible physical and chemical properties. In this review, the fundamentals and recent progress in the synthesis of perovskite type ABO3 oxides are considered. We describe the mechanisms for electrocatalytic oxygen evolution reactions (OER), oxygen reduction reactions (ORR), hydrogen evolution reactions (HER), nitrogen reduction reactions (NRR), carbon dioxide reduction reactions (CO2RR), and metal-air batteries in details. Furthermore, the photocatalytic water splitting, CO2 conversion, pollutant degradation, and nitrogen fixation are reviewed as well. We also stress the applications of perovskite type ABO3 oxides in solid oxide fuel cells (SOFs). Finally, the optimization of perovskite type ABO3 oxides for applications in various fields and an outlook on the current and future challenges are depicted. The aim of this review is to present a broad overview of the recent advancements in the development of perovskite type ABO3 oxides-based catalysts and their applications in energy conversion and environmental remediation, as well as to present a roadmap for future development in these hot research areas.

Abstract
Rapid industrial advancement over the last few decades has led to an alarming increase in pollution levels in the ecosystem. Among the primary pollutants, harmful organic dyes and pharmaceutical drugs are directly released by industries into the water bodies which serves as a major cause of environmental deterioration. This warns of a severe need to find some sustainable strategies to overcome these increasing levels of water pollution and eliminate the pollutants before being exposed to the environment. Photocatalysis is a well-established strategy in the field of pollutant degradation and various metal oxides have been proven to exhibit excellent physicochemical properties which makes them a potential candidate for environmental remediation. Further, with the aim of rapid industrialization of photocatalytic pollutant degradation technology, constant efforts have been made to increase the photocatalytic activity of various metal oxides. One such strategy is the introduction of defects into the lattice of the parent catalyst through doping or vacancy which plays a major role in enhancing the catalytic activity and achieving excellent degradation rates. This review provides a comprehensive analysis of defects and their role in altering the photocatalytic activity of the material. Various defect-rich metal oxides like binary oxides, perovskite oxides, and spinel oxides have been summarized for their application in pollutant degradation. Finally, a summary of existing research, followed by the existing challenges along with the potential countermeasures has been provided to pave a path for the future studies and industrialization of this promising field.

Abstract
The Experimental Design was applied to optimize the electrocatalytic activity of La0.8Ba0.2CoO3 perovskite oxide/Active Carbon composite material in the alkaline solution for the Oxygen Evolution Reaction. After the preparation of La0.8Ba0.2CoO3, and structural characterizations, the experimental design was utilized to determine the optimal amount of the composite material and testing conditions. The overpotential was defined as the response variable, and the mass ratio of perovskite/active carbon, Potassium hydroxide (KOH) concentration, and Poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) amount were considered effective parameters. The significance of model terms is demonstrated by P-values less than 0.0500. The proposed prediction model determined the optimal amounts of 0.665 mg of PVDF, a KOH concentration of 0.609 M, and A perovskite/Active Carbon mass ratio of 2.81 with 308.22 mV overpotential (2.27% greater than the actual overpotential). The stability test of the optimized electrode material over 24 h suggests that it could be a good candidate electrocatalyst for OER with reusability potential.

Abstract
The electrochemical oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) are fundamental processes in a range of energy conversion devices such as fuel cells and metal-air batteries. ORR and OER both have significant activation barriers, which severely limit the overall performance of energy conversion devices that utilize ORR/OER. Meanwhile, ORR is another very important electrochemical reaction involving oxygen that has been widely investigated. ORR occurs in aqueous solutions via two pathways: the direct 4-electron reduction or 2-electron reduction pathways from O2 to water (H2O) or from O2 to hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). Noble metal electrocatalysts are often used to catalyze OER and ORR, despite the fact that noble metal electrocatalysts have certain intrinsic limitations, such as low storage. Thus, it is urgent to develop more active and stable low-cost electrocatalysts, especially for severe environments (e.g., acidic media). Theoretically, an ideal oxygen electrocatalyst should provide adequate binding to oxygen species. Transition metals not belonging to the platinum group metal-based oxides are a low-cost substance that could give a d orbital for oxygen species binding. As a result, transition metal oxides are regarded as a substitute for typical precious metal oxygen electrocatalysts. However, the development of oxide catalysts for oxygen reduction and oxygen evolution reactions still faces significant challenges, e.g., catalytic activity, stability, cost, and reaction mechanism. We discuss the fundamental principles underlying the design of oxide catalysts, including the influence of crystal structure, and electronic structure on their performance. We also discuss the challenges associated with developing oxide catalysts and the potential strategies to overcome these challenges.

Abstract
The urgent need to promote the development of sustainable energy conversion requires exploration of highly efficient oxygen evolution reaction (OER) electrocatalysts. Defect engineering is a promising approach to address the inherent low electrical conductivity of metal oxides and limited reaction sites, for use in clean air applications and as electrochemical energy-storage electrocatalysts. In this article, oxygen defects are introduced into La2CoMnO6-δ perovskite oxides through the A-site cation defect strategy. By tuning the content of the A-site cation, oxygen defect concentration and corresponding electrochemical OER performance have been greatly improved. As a result, the defective La1.8CoMnO6-δ (L1.8CMO) catalyst exhibits exceptional OER activity with an overpotential of 350 mV at 10 mA cm-2, approximately 120 mV lower than that of the pristine perovskite. This enhancement can be attributed to the increase in surface oxygen vacancies, optimized eg occupation of transition metal at the B-site, and enlarged Brunauer-Emmett-Teller surface area. The reported strategy facilitates the development of novel defect-mediated perovskites in electrocatalysis.

Abstract
Oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is a necessary procedure in various devices including water splitting and rechargeable metal-air batteries but required a higher potential to improve oxygen evolution efficiency due to its slow reaction kinetics. In order to solve this problem, a heterostructured electrocatalyst (Co3O4@FeOx/CC) is synthesized by deposition of iron oxides (FeOx) on carbon cloth (CC) via plasma-enhanced atomic layer deposition, then growth of the cobalt oxide (Co3O4) nanosheet arrays. The deposition cycle of FeOxon the CC strongly influences thein situgrowth and distribution of Co3O4nanosheets and electronic conductivity of the electrocatalyst. Owing to the high accessible and electroactive areas and improved electrical conductivity, the free-standing electrode of Co3O4@FeOx/CC with 100 deposition cycles of FeOxexhibits excellent electrocatalytic performance for OER with a low overpotential of 314.0 mV at 10 mA cm-2and a small Tafel slope of 29.2 mV dec-1in alkaline solution, which is much better than that of Co3O4/CC (448 mV), and even commercial RuO2(380 mV). This design and optimization strategy shows a promising way to synthesize ideally designed catalytic architectures for application in energy storage and conversion.

Abstract
Cathode electrocatalyst is quite critical to realize the application of microbial fuel cells (MFCs). Perovskite oxides have been considered as potential MFCs cathode catalysts to replace Pt/C. Herein, Cu-doped perovskite oxide with a stable porous structure and excellent conductivity was successfully prepared through a sol-gel method. Due to the incorporation of Cu, CaFe0.9Cu0.1O3 has more micropores and a larger surface area, which are more conducive to contact with oxygen. Doping Cu resulted in more Fe3+ in B-site and thus enhanced its binding capability to oxygen molecules. The data from electrochemical test demonstrated that the as-prepared catalyst has good conductivity, high stability, and excellent ORR properties. Compared with Pt/C catalyst, CaFe0.9Cu0.1O3 exhibits a lower overpotential, which had an onset potential of 0.195 V and a half-wave potential of -0.224 V, respectively. CaFe0.9Cu0.1O3 displays an outstanding four-electron pathway for ORR mechanism and demonstrates superiors corrosion resistance and stability. The MFC with CaFe0.9Cu0.1O3 has a greater maximum power density (1090 mW m-3) rather than that of Pt/C cathode (970 mW m-3). This work demonstrated CaFe0.9Cu0.1O3 is an economic and efficient cathodic catalyst for MFCs.

Abstract
The electrochemical oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) offers a most promising and efficient route to produce hydrogen peroxide (H2 O2 ), yet the lack of cost-effective and high-performance electrocatalysts have restricted its practical application. Herein, an entropy-enhancement strategy has been employed to enable the low-cost perovskite oxide to effectively catalyze the electrosynthesis of H2 O2 . The optimized Pb(NiWMnNbZrTi)1/6 O3 ceramic is available on a kilogram-scale and displays commendable ORR activity in alkaline media with high selectivity over 91 % across the wide potential range for H2 O2 including an outstanding degradation property for organic dyes through the Fenton process. The exceptional performance of this perovskite oxide is attributed to the entropy stabilization-induced polymorphic transformation assuring the robust structural stability, decreased charge mobility as well as synergistic catalytic effects which we confirm using advanced in situ Raman, transient photovoltage, Rietveld refinement as well as finite elemental analysis.

Abstract
Low-cost transition-metal oxide is regarded as a promising electrocatalyst family for an oxygen evolution reaction (OER). The classic design principle for an oxide electrocatalyst believes that point defect engineering, such as oxygen vacancies (VO..) or heteroatom doping, offers the opportunities to manipulate the electronic structure of material toward optimal OER activity. Oppositely, in this work, we discover a counterintuitive phenomenon that both VO.. and an aliovalent dopant (i.e., proton (H+)) in perovskite nickelate (i.e., NdNiO3 (NNO)) have a considerably detrimental effect on intrinsic OER performance. Detailed characterizations unveil that the introduction of these point defects leads to a decrease in the oxidative state of Ni and weakens Ni-O orbital hybridization, which triggers the local electron-electron correlation and a more insulating state. Evidenced by first-principles calculation using the density functional theory (DFT) method, the OER on nickelate electrocatalysts follows the lattice oxygen mechanism (LOM). The incorporation of point defect increases the energy barrier of transformation from OO*(VO) to OH*(VO) intermediates, which is regarded as the rate-determining step (RDS). This work offers a new and significant perspective of the role that lattice defects play in the OER process.

Abstract
The development of renewable energy conversion and storage has triggered the development of electrode materials for oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and supercapacitors. Here we report a highly active Cu doped NiFe nanosheets hydroxide electrode with rich oxygen vacancies (OVs) (denoted as H-NiFeCuO/NF) prepared by in situ anodic electrodeposition on the three-dimensional macroporous nickel foam (NF) substrate followed by heat treatment with H2. The as-prepared H-NiFeCuO/NF electrode showed the initial potential of 1.44 V (versus RHE) for OER and 980 F g-1 specific capacity as supercapacitor in 1 M KOH. Further investigation suggested that the tuning of composition and structure by doping copper ions and creating OVs helped accelerate the electrochemical reactions. This practice provides an efficient approach for the fabrication of heteromultimetallic hydroxide monolithic electrode with high performance in OER or supercapacitor application.

Abstract
An apparent increased interest has been recently devoted towards the previously untrodden path for anionic point defect engineering of electrocatalytic surfaces. The role of vacancy engineering in improving photo- and electrocatalytic activities of transition metal oxides (TMOs) has been widely reported. In particular, oxygen vacancy modulation on electrocatalysts of cobalt-based TMOs has seen a fresh spike of research work due to the substantial improvements they have shown towards oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). Oxygen vacancy engineering is an effective scheme to quintessentially tune the electronic structure and charge transport, generate secondary active surface phases, and modify the surface adsorption/desorption behavior of reaction intermediates during water splitting. Based on contemporary efforts for inducing oxygen vacancies in a variety of cobalt oxide types, this work addresses facile and environmentally benign synthesis strategies, characterization techniques, and detailed insight into the intrinsic mechanistic modulation of electrocatalysts. It is our foresight that appropriate utilization of the principles discussed herein will aid researchers in rationally designing novel materials that can outperform noble metal-based electrocatalysts. Ultimately, future electrocatalysis implementation for selective seawater splitting is believed to depend on regulating the surface chemistry of active and stable TMOs.

Abstract
AbstractOxygen vacancies in complex metal oxides and specifically in perovskites are demonstrated to significantly enhance their electrocatalytic activities due to facilitating a degree of control in the material’s intrinsic properties. The reported enhancement in intrinsic OER activity of oxygen-deficient perovskites surfaces has inspired their fabrication via a myriad of schemes. Oxygen vacancies in perovskites are amongst the most favorable anionic or Schottky defects to be induced due to their low formation energies. This review discusses recent efforts for inducing oxygen vacancies in a multitude of perovskites, including facile and environmentally benign synthesis strategies, characterization techniques, and detailed insight into the intrinsic mechanistic modulation of perovskite electrocatalysts. Experimental, analytical, and computational techniques dedicated to the understanding of the improvement of OER activities upon oxygen vacancy induction are summarized in this work. The identification and utilization of intrinsic activity descriptors for the modulation of configurational structure, improvement in bulk charge transport, and favorable inflection of the electronic structure are also discussed. It is our foresight that the approaches, challenges, and prospects discussed herein will aid researchers in rationally designing highly active and stable perovskites that can outperform noble metal-based OER electrocatalysts.

Abstract
Perovskite oxides as bifunctional electrocatalysts toward oxygen reduction (ORR) and oxygen evolution reactions (OER) have been investigated for decades because of the flexible and adjustable electronic structures. For example, by optimizing the strength of the Co-O bond, the ORR and OER activity of a typical perovskite oxide, LaCoO3, can be improved, but they are still unsatisfying. The insufficient insights into the effects of secondary metal dopants at the B-site on the electronic structure and activity, especially for ORR, significantly limit the R&D of bifunctional perovskite oxide catalysts. In this work, a series of LaMnxCo1-xO3 (x = 0, 0.25, 0.3, 0.35, 0.5, 1) catalysts are prepared by a polyol-assisted solvothermal method to investigate the structure-property relationships between the B-site metal substitution and the electrochemical performance of perovskite oxides catalysts. The optimized LaMn0.3Co0.7O3 catalyst demonstrates an enhanced half-wave potential of 0.72 V for ORR, 52 mV higher than that of the pristine LaCoO3 (0.668 V). Meanwhile, the OER overpotential of LaMn0.3Co0.7O3 catalyst is 416 mV, which is reduced by 64 mV compared to LaCoO3 (480 mV). It is revealed that the appropriate Mn dopant efficiently optimizes the covalency of Co-O bonds and significantly reduces the eg orbit-filling electron from 1.23 of pristine LaCoO3 to 1.02 in LaMn0.3Co0.7O3 (very close to theoretical value 1). This work paves a new way to design and synthesize bifunctional perovskite oxide electrocatalyst for ORR and OER.

Abstract
The developments of high-performance and tolerant catalysts may enable more sustainable energy in the future, especially toward water oxidation. Herein, we report A-site cation-ordering layered perovskite EuBa0.5Sr0.5Co2-x Fe x O5+δ (EBSCFx) (x = 0.2-0.6) electrocatalysts. When evaluated for oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in alkaline media, EuBa0.5Sr0.5Co1.6Fe0.4O5+δ (EBSCF0.4) exhibits the best catalytic activity among all of these catalysts, as evidenced by the lowest overpotential of 420 mV at a current density of 10 mA cm-2. Notably, the catalytic activity of EBSCF0.4 is better than that of commercial IrO2 at the overpotential >460 mV. Furthermore, the EBSCF0.4-20RuO2 (involving 20 wt % RuO2) composite catalyst is developed and gives an overpotential as low as 390 mV at 50 mA cm-2, which is even superior to commercial RuO2. For overall water splitting, an electrolysis voltage of merely 1.47 V is achieved at 10 mA cm-2 in an electrolyzer employing EBSCF0.4-20RuO2 as bifunctional catalysts, with exceptional durability for 24 h. Such a performance outperforms state-of-the-art IrO2∥Pt/C and RuO2∥Pt/C couples. According to density functional theory (DFT) calculations, the unique catalytic properties of EBSCF0.4 may benefit from highly active Fe sites with octahedral coordination, and the synergistic effects of Fe and Ru sites in the composite catalyst accelerate the electrochemical water oxidation.

Abstract
We report the facile synthesis methods of four materials, with the general formula SrMnO3-δ, which have previously been synthesized in multiple steps, involving switching between different oxidizing and reducing gases, quenching, the use of zirconium metal as a reductant, etc. However, we have shown that it is possible to synthesize all of these materials by facile processes without unnecessary complications. In fact, we have found methods of synthesizing the oxygen-deficient phases in only one step. Given the diverse range of structures that are formed for SrMnO3-δ, we have investigated the correlations between the structural order and electrocatalytic activity for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) of water splitting. We have uncovered a systematic trend in the OER activity, where the most oxygen-deficient compound, SrMnO2.5, which features square-pyramidal coordination geometry around manganese, shows the highest OER performance. The next OER activity belongs to SrMnO2.6, which contains both MnO5 trigonal bipyramids and MnO6 octahedra. SrMnO3(cubic), containing only corner-sharing MnO6 units, shows the third best OER performance. The least activity is observed in SrMnO3(hexagonal), featuring both face- and corner-sharing MnO6 octahedra. We have also studied the electrochemically active surface area, as well as the kinetics of OER for all four materials, and found that the trend in these properties is the same as the trend in the OER activity. These findings indicate that the electrocatalytic activity is correlated with the degree of oxygen deficiency, as well as the polyhedral connectivity.

Perovskite oxides are receiving discernable attention as potential bifunctional oxygen electrocatalysts to replace precious metals because of their low cost, good activity, and versatility. In this review, we provide a brief summary on the fundamentals of perovskite oxygen electrocatalysts and a detailed discussion on emerging high-performance oxygen electrocatalysts based on perovskite, which include perovskite with a controlled composition, perovskite with high surface area, and perovskite composites. Challenges and outlooks in the further development of perovskite oxygen electrocatalysts are also presented.

Abstract
The development of an efficient, robust, and low-cost catalyst for water electrolysis is critically important for renewable energy conversion. Herein, we achieve a significant improvement in electrocatalytic activity for both the oxygen-evolution reaction (OER) and the hydrogen-evolution reaction (HER) by constructing a novel hierarchical PrBa0.5Sr0.5Co2O5+δ (PBSC)@FeOOH catalyst. The optimized PBSC@FeOOH-20 catalyst consisted of layered perovskite PBSC nanorods and 20 nm thick amorphous FeOOH nanoflakes exhibiting an excellent electrocatalytic activity for the OER and the HER in 0.1 M KOH media, delivering a current density of 10 mA cm-2 at overpotentials of 390 mV for the OER and 280 mV for the HER, respectively. The substantially enhanced performance is probably attributed to the hierarchical nanostructure, the good charge-transfer capability, and the strong electronic interactions of FeOOH and PBSC. Importantly, an alkaline electrolyzer-integrated PBSC@FeOOH-20 catalyst as both the anode and cathode shows a highly active overall water splitting with a low voltage of 1.638 V at 10 mA cm-2 and high stability during continuous operation. This study provides new insights into exploring efficient bifunctional catalysts for overall water splitting, and it suggests that the rational design of the oxyhydroxide/perovskite heterostructure shows great potential as a promising type of electrocatalysts.

Abstract
Electrocatalytic oxygen reduction reaction (ORR), oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) have attracted widespread attention because of their important role in the application of various energy storage and conversion devices, such as fuel cells, metal-air batteries and water splitting devices. However, the sluggish kinetics of the HER/OER/ORR and their dependency on expensive noble metal catalysts (e.g., Pt) obstruct their large-scale application. Hence, the development of efficient and robust bifunctional or trifunctional electrocatalysts in nanodimension for both oxygen reduction/evolution and hydrogen evolution reactions is highly desired and challenging for their commercialization in renewable energy technologies. This review describes some recent developments in the discovery of bifunctional or trifunctional nanostructured catalysts with improved performances for application in rechargeable metal-air batteries and fuel cells. The role of the electronic structure and surface redox chemistry of nanocatalysts in the improvement of their performance for the ORR/OER/HER under an alkaline medium is highlighted and the associated reaction mechanisms developed in the recent literature are also summarized.
