A growing number of studies has attempted to use carbon-based materials to enhance methane production performance. Granular activated carbon (GAC) is commonly used due to its low price and high efficiency. Moreover, the high conductivity of GAC favors direct interspecies electron transfer (DIET) coupled with CO2 reduction to accelerate electromethanogenesis. GAC has also other properties such as porosity, which may influence microbial methanogenesis. . Here we review the effects of GAC on anaerobic carbon mineralization, with focus on conductivity, adhesion, adsorption, pH buffering, and redox mediation. The findings are also applicable to natural ecosystems such as soils and sediments. We also discuss modification of GAC by nanomaterials to enhance anaerobic performance. We suggest practical GAC applications in anaerobic digestion and energy conservation.
