| Summary: | Graphene-based materials from the two-dimensional (2D) carbon family show great promise for Carbon dioxide (CO2) capture due to their widespread availability, inherent graphitic properties, high porosity, stability, and cost-effectiveness. Furthermore, graphene's versatility in functionalization and modification enables substantial changes in its physicochemical properties and adsorption efficiency, thereby enhancing its CO2 capture capabilities. Recent studies have shown that graphene-based composites, which include functional groups like amines, metal oxides, or biopolymers, can greatly improve the performance of CO2 adsorption. These enhancements are primarily attributed to an increase in surface area, better dispersion of materials, and a stronger chemical affinity for CO2 molecules. This review systematically classifies graphene-based composites and provides an in-depth analysis of recent advancements in their material properties and adsorption capabilities for CO2 removal. The discussion extends beyond experimental parameters and adsorption mechanisms, including aspects such as regeneration efficiency and mechanistic insights. This review aims to provide valuable information to the research community by offering detailed insights into practical techniques for synthesizing adsorbents, their application in CO2 capture, and the design of adsorption systems. |
