Three-dimensional graphene based materials (3D GBMs) as emerging materials have been widely used in various fields. This mini-review selectively highlights the recent research progress in the application of 3D GBMs in organic dyes removal. In particularly, the application potential, catalytic performance, and degradation mechanisms of the 3D GBMs are summarized in this mini-review. The factors affecting the degradation capacity of 3D GBMs are discussed briefly. Furthermore, the possible ongoing researches on 3D GBMs are also put forward. We deem that this mini-review will provide a valuable insight into the design and application of 3D GBMs in environmental field.
