Cover Story: Carbon-based materials, known for their high surface area and chemical stability, are widely used in radionuclide adsorption. However, conventional carbon materials often suffer from low capacity and selectivity. Plasma modification has emerged as an effective strategy to enhance their surface chemistry, increasing their specific surface area and introducing functional groups to improve adsorption performance. In this review, we comprehensively summarize the application of carbon materials in radionuclide adsorption, with particular emphasis on plasma-modified carbon materials. The review highlights the latest research progress to date, emphasizing modification mechanisms, improved adsorption efficiency, and potential applications in nuclear wastewater treatment. View this paper
