Abstract

This chapter deals with the use of different varieties of carbon nanomaterial’s (CNMs) as a potential ion-exchange material. Potential modifications of CNMs to enhance their ion-exchange properties such as functionalization of the surfaces of these materials and heteroatom doping have been discussed. Primarily, it is based on functional groups addition which modifies the surface of CNMs thus increasing ion exchange capabilities. The specificity of CNMs for particular ions needs improvement. Heteroatom-doped carbon nanotubes (CNTs) depict better properties over common CNTs.
