In recent years, Bi-based semiconductor materials have gained considerable attention. Their unique layered structure and suitable band gap endow them with superior visible light photocatalytic activities, which is promising in environment pollutants removal. This article mainly reviews the recent advances in environment contaminants removal with Bi-based photocatalysts. We first introduce several well-known Bi-based semiconductor materials and their preparation methods, and then summarize their applications for air purification, organic wastewa...
