Abstract

Abstract Among various advanced oxidation processes, coupled photocatalysis and heterogeneous Fenton‐like catalysis (known as photo‐Fenton‐like catalysis) to generate highly reactive species for environmental remediation has attracted wide interests. As an emerging metal‐free photocatalyst, graphitic carbon nitride (g‐C 3 N 4 , CN) has been recently recognized as a promising candidate to catalyze robustly heterogeneous photo‐Fenton‐like reactions for wastewater remediation. This review summarizes recent progress in fabricating various types of CN‐based catalysts for the photo‐Fenton‐like reaction process. Innovative engineering strategies on the CN matrix are outlined, ranging from morphology control, defect…
