Abstract
Efficient removal of toxic metal pollutants from wastewater is crucial. Graphene-based aerogels (GBAs) have emerged as promising materials for removing and recovering harmful and valuable metals from aqueous media due to their unique 3D porous structure, high porosity, large surface area, exceptional electron mobility, adjustable surface chemistry, and stability. This review comprehensively analyzes the application of GBAs for metals removal, covering synthesis methods, mechanisms (including adsorption, electrosorption, and reduction), reusability, magnetic recovery, continuous removal processes, and multi-contaminant removal.
