Magnesium substituted Cerium Ferrite Perovskites (CeMgFeO) have been prepared in the range of 0 ≦ x ≦ 1 via citric acid-sol gel method. The structural, surface characteristics, magnetic and optical properties of these synthesized materials were studied by analyzing the data from X-Ray diffraction, Fourier Transform-Infra Red Spectroscopy, Fourier Transform-Raman Spectroscopy, Transmission Electron Microscopy, Ultra Violet-Diffused Reflection Spectroscopy, Brunauer-Emmett-Teller isotherm and Vibrating Sample Magnetometer techniques. The results obtained from the various characterization techniques revealed that the CeMgFeO perovskites can be raised as an excellent photo-fenton catalyst with 99% dye degradation ability when alkaline earth metal magnesium is doped compared to standard (CeFeO₃ and CeMgO₃) oxides, a semiconductor material with a narrow bandgap and a weak ferromagnetic material.
