Recent advances in aerogels for environmental remediation applications: A review

A lightweight and conductive MXene/graphene hybrid foam for superior electromagnetic interference shielding

Three-dimensional macrostructures (3DMs) of graphene and graphene oxide are being developed for fast and efficient removal of contaminants from water and air. The large specific surface area, versatile surface chemistry and exceptional mechanical properties of graphene-based nanosheets enable the formation of robust and high-performance 3DMs such as sponges, membranes, beads and fibres. However, little is known about the relationship between the materials properties of graphene-based 3DMs and their environmental performance. In this Review, we summarize the self-assembly and environmental applications of graphene-based 3DMs in removing contaminants from water and air. We also develop the critical link between the materials properties of 3DMs and their environmental performance, and identify the key parameters that influence their capacities for contaminant removal.

Environmental performance of graphene-based 3D macrostructures

Three-dimensional graphene based materials (3D GBMs) as emerging materials have been widely used in various fields. This mini-review selectively highlights the recent research progress in the application of 3D GBMs in organic dyes removal. In particularly, the application potential, catalytic performance, and degradation mechanisms of the 3D GBMs are summarized in this mini-review. The factors affecting the degradation capacity of 3D GBMs are discussed briefly. Furthermore, the possible ongoing researches on 3D GBMs are also put forward. We deem that this mini-review will provide a valuable insight into the design and application of 3D GBMs in environmental field.
