“…Perovskite type catalysts (ABO 3 , A = La, Y and B = Ni, Co, Fe, Mn) are known to be among the most active catalysts for the oxidation of chlorinated VOCs (CVOCs) [6][7][8]. Their high catalytic activity is attributed to the presence of stable mixed valence states in the ''B" site, the availability of weakly bonded oxygen at the surface and the presence of crystal lattice defects [6,9,10].…”
