Environmental catalysis has been considered one of the important research topics. Some technologies (e.g., photocatalysis and electrocatalysis) have been intensively developed with the advance of synthetic technologies of catalytical materials. In 2019, we discussed the development trend of this field, and wrote a roadmap on this topic in Chinese Chemical Letters (30 (2019) 2065-2088). Nowadays, we discuss it again from a new viewpoint along this road. In this paper, several subtopics are discussed, e.g., photocatalysis based on titanium dioxide, violet phosphorus, graphitic carbon and covalent organic frameworks, electrocatalysts based on carbon, metal- and covalent-organic framework. Finally, we hope that this roadmap can enrich the development of two-dimensional materials in environmental catalysis with novel understanding, and give useful inspiration to explore new catalysts for practical applications.
