Lead (Pb)–zinc (Zn) slags contain large amounts of Pb, causing irreversible damage to the environment. Therefore, developing an effective strategy to extract Pb from Pb–Zn slags and convert them into a renewable high-value catalyst not only solves the energy crisis but also reduces environmental pollution. Herein, we present a viable strategy to recycle Pb and iron (Fe) from Pb–Zn slags for the fabrication of efficient methylammonium lead tri-iodide (r-MAPbI 3 ) piezocatalysts with single-atom Fe–N 4 sites. Intriguingly, atomically dispersed Fe sites from Pb–Zn slags, which coordinated with N in the neighboring four CH 3 NH 3 to form the FeN 4 configuration, were detected in the as-obtained r-MAPbI 3 by synchrotron X-ray absorption spectroscopy. The introduction of Fe single atoms amplified the polarization of MAPbI 3 and upshifted the d-band center of MAPbI 3 . This not only enhanced the piezoelectric response of MAPbI 3 but also promoted the proton transfer during the hydrogen evolution process. Due to the decoration of Fe single atoms, r-MAPbI 3 showed a pronounced H 2 yield of 322.4 μmol g −1 h −1 , which was 2.52 times that of MAPbI 3 synthesized using commercially available reagents. This simple yet robust strategy to manufacture MAPbI 3 piezocatalysts paves a novel way to the large-scale and value-added consumption of Pb-containing waste residues.
