With the rapid advancements in synthetic strategies, the field of heterogeneous catalysis has expanded enormously over the last few decades, and today it is one of the foremost areas in energy and environmental research. Various templating and non-templating routes for designing porous nanomaterial-based catalysts starting from precursor building blocks are highlighted here. CO2 and biomass are two major abundant resources that can be utilized as feedstocks for various heterogeneous catalytic processes. These are described in brief, together with environmental clean-up applications and future perspectives for addressing environmental issues.
