Abstract:Most volatile organic compounds(VOCs)are toxic,carcinogenic and teratogenic,which are ex-tremely harmful to human health and ecological environment.How to deal with VOCs is imminent.At present,there are many VOCs treatment technologies,such as combustion,absorption,condensation,adsorption and biological methods.Among them,the adsorption method using carbonaceous materials is an efficient,economical and widely used method.In this paper,the progress of several representative car-bon materials(biochar,graphene,carbon nanotubes,ordered mesoporous carbon and activated carbon fi-ber)for VOCs adsorption is introduced,and the factors(the properties of carbon materials and VOCs and adsorption conditions)for VOCs adsorption by carbon materials are analyzed.Finally,the present situa-tion of VOCs adsorption by carbon materials is summarized and its future development direction is pros-pected.
