Perovskites are typical oxygen storage materials that find many chemical, energy, and environmental applications. Lanthanumbased perovskite oxides represent a large family of oxygen carriers for chemical looping processes. Oxygen storage and redox behaviors are crucial for efficient activation of C−H/C�O, selective oxidation/ combustion, heat management for chemical looping, or lattice oxygenrelated reactions. The present work studied oxygen releasing/acquiring behaviors of lanthanum-based perovskite oxides with different B-site transition metals (Fe, Co, Ni, Cr, Mn, Al, Cu, and V) in CH 4 /CO/H 2 and CO 2 /O 2 by means of thermodynamic analysis, temperature programmed reduction/oxidation (TPR/TPO) experiments, and kinetics study. The oxygen release capacities obtained from H 2 -TPR followed an order of LaCoO
