Abstract

Carbon-based molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) represent a significant advancement in the field of environmental remediation, offering enhanced selectivity, stability, and efficiency compared to traditional MIPs. This chapter provides a comprehensive overview of the development, application, and future prospects of carbon-based MIPs in environmental protection. We explore the integration of carbon materials such as graphene, carbon nanotubes, and activated carbon into MIPs, highlighting their role in improving adsorption capacity and mechanical properties. The chapter also discusses the application of these advanced materials in the removal of heavy metals, organic pollutants, and volatile organic compounds from water, air, and soil. Challenges related to scalability, cost, and practical implementation are addressed, along with emerging trends and future directions in the field. The potential of carbon-based MIPs to provide sustainable and effective solutions for environmental protection is emphasized, underscoring their importance in the future of environmental science.
