Here, the catalytic degradation of organic compounds is reported by exploiting the magnetoelectric nature of cobalt ferrite–bismuth ferrite (CFO–BFO) core–shell nanoparticles. The combination of magnetostrictive CFO with multiferroic BFO gives rise to a magnetoelectric engine that purifies water under wireless magnetic fields via advanced oxidation processes, without involvement of any sacrificial molecules or cocatalysts. Magnetostrictive CoFe2O4 nanoparticles are fabricated using hydrothermal synthesis, followed by sol–gel synthesis to create the multiferroic BiFeO3 shell.
