The textile, printing and dyeing industries are producing wastewater containing hazardous dye contaminants, which require advanced remediation methods to avoid environmental pollution. Here we review graphene oxide-based materials for the removal of dye contaminants in waters and wastewater, with focus on the properties of graphene oxide, adsorption mechanisms, factors controlling the adsorption, and applications. Dye adsorption is controlled by temperature, adsorbent and dye concentrations, and adsorption time. Graphene oxide composites include membranes and aerogels. Graphene oxide displays suitable hydrophilicity, acid‐alkali resistance, and strong adsorption capabilities. Increasing the surface activity and specific surface area of graphene oxide promotes the adsorption of graphene oxide on textile wastewater and dyeing wastewater.

纺织、印染行业产生的废水中含有有害染料污染物，需要先进的修复方法以避免环境污染。在这里，我们回顾了用于去除水和废水中染料污染物的氧化石墨烯基材料，重点介绍了氧化石墨烯的性质、吸附机理、控制吸附的因素和应用。染料吸附受温度、吸附剂和染料浓度以及吸附时间的控制。氧化石墨烯复合材料包括膜和气凝胶。氧化石墨烯具有合适的亲水性、耐酸碱性和强吸附能力。增加氧化石墨烯的表面活性和比表面积，促进氧化石墨烯在纺织废水和印染废水中的吸附。
