Compared to incineration, catalytic oxidation technologies for BTX removal offer benefits such as low energy consumption, high efficiency, and low pollution. ABO3-type perovskite catalysts (ABO3-PCs) are particularly promising materials for the catalytic oxidation of BTX due to their high activity and thermal stability, as well as their adjustable elemental composition and flexible structure allowing their properties to be improved. Nonetheless, the full potential of ABO3-PCs for the oxidation of BTX has yet to be reached. This review systematically and critically analyses progress in the catalytic oxidation of BTX by ABO3-PCs. Catalytic performance is assessed for each category of perovskite, including non-doped, doped (A-, B-, or A/B-site doped), and loading type (noble metal, metal oxide, and matrix composite), with structure-activity relationships are established. A kinetic model and proposed mechanism for the catalytic oxidation of BTX are also presented. Finally, the challenges and opportunities of ABO3-PCs applied to BTX oxidation and other reactions are highlighted.|The emission of benzene, toluene, and xylene (BTX) compounds poses urgent and substantial threats to both the environment and human health. This review systematically analyses the progress in catalytic oxidation of BTX pollutants using metal oxide perovskites, providing valuable insights into their catalytic performance, mechanisms, and potential applications in real-world scenarios. imagePhysical SciencesTechnologyBtxCatalytic OxidationEnvironmental SustainabilityPerovskitestext::journal::journal article::review article
