    • Abstract

       

      As a ‘star molecule’, graphene is widely used in technical fields such as environmental pollutant treatment due to its special properties such as ultra-high carrier mobility, ${\pi}$–${\pi}$ conjugated structure and unique electrochemical properties. This article reviews the recent applications of graphene and its derivatives for adsorption and enrichment of pollutants in the aqueous environment, atmosphere and soil, including the adsorption mechanism of graphene in the treatment of some representative contaminants and the influencing factors of adsorption performance. We hope to use this article as a glimpse of the prospects of graphene applications in environmental pollutants.
