Photocatalytic materials for photocatalysis is recently proposed as a promising strategy to address environmental remediation. Metal-free graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4), is an emerging photocatalyst in radical based advanced oxidation processes. g-C3N4 is a popular two-dimensional (2D) photocatalyst with numerous advantages, such as visible light response, low cost, and high stability. This review outlines the preparation and characterization of g-C3N4 based photocatalysts and presents their representative applications in water and wastewater treatment (e.g., removal of of Ciprofloxacin, Acetaminophen, and Carbamazepine). Meanwhile, the different modification approaches, such as nanocomposites and heterojunctions, as well as doping and defect introductions, are briefly discussed. In addition, the corresponding mechanisms and relevant findings are discussed. Finally, the challenges and research needs in the future and application of g-C3N4 based hybrid membranes are highlighted.
