The treatment of oily wastewater has become a serious environmental challenge, for which graphene oxide has emerged as a promising material in solving the problem. The ever-growing utilization of graphene oxide (GO) in the treatment of oily wastewater necessitates a constant review. This review article employs a comprehensive literature survey methodology, systematically examining peer-reviewed articles, focusing on, but not entirely limited to, the last five years. Major databases such as EBSCOhost, Scopus, ScienceDirect, Web of Science and Google Scholar were searched using specific keywords related to GO and oily wastewater treatment. The inclusion criteria focused on studies that specifically address the application, efficiency, and mechanisms of GO in treating oily wastewater. The data extracted from these sources were then synthesized to highlight the most important developments, challenges, and prospects in this field. As far as oily wastewater treatment is concerned, the majority of the studies revolve around the use of GO in mitigating fouling in membrane processes, improving the stability, capacity and reusability of sorbents, and enhancing photodegradation by minimizing charge recombination.
含油废水的处理已经成为一个严重的环境挑战，而氧化石墨烯作为解决这一问题的有前途的材料已经出现。氧化石墨烯（GO）在含油废水处理中的应用不断增加，因此需要不断进行审查。本文采用全面的文献调查方法，系统地审查了同行评议的文章，重点但不限于过去五年的文章。使用与 GO 和含油废水处理相关的特定关键字，在 EBSCOhost、Scopus、ScienceDirect、Web of Science 和 Google Scholar 等主要数据库中进行了搜索。纳入标准侧重于专门研究 GO 在处理含油废水中的应用、效率和机制的研究。从这些来源提取的数据被综合起来，以突出该领域最重要的发展、挑战和前景。就含油废水处理而言，大多数研究都集中在使用 GO 来减轻膜过程中的结垢、提高吸附剂的稳定性、容量和可重复使用性，以及通过最小化电荷复合来增强光降解。
