abstract = "This paper explores the synthesis and characterization of potential catalysts for oxygen evolution reactions (OER) using rare earth elements (REEs) such as Ce, Y and Yb, in combination with transition metals Co and Ir. Utilizing the ultrasonic spray pyrolysis (USP) synthesis method, multivalent oxides were produced from metal salt precursors, demonstrating promising catalytic properties for OER. The research encompasses various experimental techniques including microwave synthesis, IrO2 deposition, and a range of electrochemical analyses (XRD, SEM/EDS, CV, LSV, PEIS, C-DC) to evaluate the performance of these multivalent oxides. Additionally, the study highlights the critical role of REEs in advanced technology manufacturing and investigates the potential of coal fly ash (CFA) as a resource for REE recovery, promoting circular economy principles and sustainable resource management. The research emphasizes the importance of local extractive technologies to reduce transportation costs and environmental impacts, thereby enhancing regional resource independence and sustainability. This study aims to provide valuable insights into the development of efficient catalysts for oxygen evolution reactions, supporting the transition towards more sustainable energy storage and conversion technologies. The findings reveal the superior catalytic activity of the synthesized multivalent oxides compared to conventional catalysts, underscoring their potential for practical applications in rechargeable metal-air batteries and fuel cells.",
