Abstract

Graphene-based sensors have emerged as promising tools for environmental monitoring due to their exceptional properties such as high surface area, excellent electrical conductivity, and sensitivity to various analytes. This paper presents a review of recent advancements in the development and application of graphene-based sensors for the detection of heavy metal ions and organic pollutants. These sensors employ either graphene or its derivatives, often in combination with graphene hybrid nanocomposites, as the primary sensing material. The synthesis methods of graphene and sensing mechanisms of graphene-based sensors are discussed. Furthermore, performance metrics including the determination range and detection limits of these sensors are itemized. The potential challenges and future directions in the field of graphene-based sensors for environmental monitoring are also highlighted. Overall, this review provides valuable insights into the current state-of-the-art technologies and paves the way for the development of highly efficient and reliable sensors for environmental monitoring purposes.
