Abstract

Since the first discovery of two-dimensional (2D) MXenes, about 30 different structures of this group have been synthesized to date. Owing to their unique mechanical, chemical, and electrical properties, many successful attempts have been focused on using MXenes in water treatment and environmental remediation applications. However, more efforts are still needed to address the stability, biocompatibility, and reusability of MXenes in aqueous media. This chapter discusses the latest research progress in the application of MXenes in pollutants adsorption/remediation, photodegradation, and membrane separation. An overview is given on recent experimental/computational attempts to explore the potential of MXenes in water treatment applications and highlight the challenges and opportunities of these advanced 2D architectures. This chapter highlights new avenues for more innovative developments of MXene materials in environmental applications.
