The unique morphology and structure of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) keep attracting a great number of researchers to explore the novel properties of these materials. The special structure of CNTs determines its physical and chemical properties, mainly reflected in its novel electrical, mechanical properties and excellent adsorption performance. This review summarizes the adsorption properties of CNTs and their properties related to the adsorption of various heavy metal ions, organic and inorganic pollutants from large volumes of aqueous solutions. CNTs is a kind of potential environmental material. This article also put forward future opportunities for CNTs application in environmental systems.
