With the development of the human economy and green chemistry, people pay much more attention to environmental safety. Correspondingly, mesoporous TiO₂ and its correlated photocatalysts are able to help people seek for better life. In this review, first of all, we briefly introduce the preparations and applications of mesoporous TiO₂-SiO₂ materials, which exhibit excellent performance in pollutants decomposition and H₂ evolution in photocatalysis. Then, we review the mesoporous composites of Ti-SiO₂ materials, which are ideal materials used in the photoreduction of air pollutants such as CO₂, NO and NO₂. It is powerfully evident from the literature surveys that these TiO₂ based mesoporous photocatalysts possess a large potential in environment and energy development.
