Escalating environmental issues have gathered prodigious scientific attention. Recently, two dimensional (2D) transition metal nitride/carbide composites have appeared as one of the most privileged nanomaterials applied in global environmental applications. Multilayered MXenes (Ti3C2Tx) were fabricated by exfoliating selective MAX phases. The description of the physiochemical properties of MXenes and their synthesis methods were detailed. This chapter also summarized the recent advancement of MXenes on environmental applications including adsorption, photocatalysis, antimicrobial and membrane processes. Finally, prospects together with challenges for MXenes possible environmental direction are summarized.
