Graphene-based materials for adsorptive removal of pollutants from water and underlying interaction mechanism

Graphene-based materials have received much attention as attractive candidates for the adsorptive removal of pollutants from water due to their large surface area and diverse active sites for adsorption. The design of graphene-based adsorbents for target pollutants is based on the underlying adsorption mechanisms. Understanding the adsorption performance of graphene-based materials and its correlation to the interaction mechanisms between the...
