In the recent past decade, layered bismuth metal oxides (Bi2MO6, M = W, Mo and Cr) have established substantial consideration comparable to bismuth oxyhalides (BiOX, X = Cl, Br, I and F) for its emerging potential towards its photocatalytic applications in clean energy production and environmental remediation. Their electronic band structure characterises appropriate band-gap for visible light photocatalytic activity. The photocatalytic activities of these materials can be deliberately incremented using various strategies including formation of heterojunction, modification of interface, using sensitizers, metal and non-metal doping, development of composites, and formation of oxygen vacancies. Nevertheless, its visible light applications limit up due to higher recombination of photoinduced charge carriers. This review systematically encapsulates electronic spectra, strategies implemented for higher separation of charge carriers, and establishing its potential in the field of cleanenergy production as well as degrading manageable and recalcitrant pollutants. Finally, the current scenario and future aspects of using Bi2MO6 photocatalysts are summarised.
