In this regard, the electrochemical performance of the noble metal free La0.8Sr0.2CoO3 perovskite is investigated for the possibility of electrooxidizing water at or near the thermodynamic potential in assistance with CH3OH electrooxidation. In short, it is explored if the catalyst, La0.8Sr0.2CoO3 can reduce the OER overvoltage while oxidising the methanol in parallel. Rotating ring disk electrode (RRDE) is used to validate this phenomenon which in addition imparts very interesting and accurate information related to lattice oxygen participation during the electro oxidation.
