Application of carbonaceous functional materials in wastewater treatment.

Under the background of "carbon peaking and carbon neutrality" policy, the green and efficient wastewater treatment process has become a hotspot and has great significance for achieving carbon emission reduction. Carbonaceous functional materials stand out from all kinds of water treatment materials due to their excellent chemical stability, economic applicability, easy modification and environmental friendliness, which is expected to become a new generation of green environmental protection materials in water treatment. This review focuses on the modification principle, characteristics and application progress of carbon functional materials in the water treatment. Meanwhile, the current challenges and future development of carbonaceous functional materials was prospected, with a view to providing references for further development and application.
