Aerogel based on reduced graphene oxide was synthesized using supercritical methods of drying the hydrogel in isopropanol. The synthesis technique involves the deposition of iron hydroxides on graphene layers, then their reduction in supercritical isopropyl alcohol to iron oxides (Fe 3 O 4 and γ-Fe 2 O 3). Results revealed that synthesized adsorbents Graphene aerogel (GA) and GA/Fe show excellent high gravimetric methane adsorption with an achievable capacity of 2.5 g/g and 3.6 g/g, respectively, in the pressure range of 0.5–10 MPa and 298 K, which is more than seven times higher than the requirements established by the US Department of Energy for the gravimetric capacity of a porous material for methane storage. However, at high gravimetric absorption, the volume absorption was 104 m3 (STP)/m3 and 102 m3 (STP)/m3 for (GA) and (GA/Fe), respectively. It should be noted that the performance characteristics of aerogels, in general, are comparable to adsorbents of other classes. A generalized flow-chart for obtaining the graphene aerogel.

• Biogases (biomethane) and natural gas (methane) have huge potential for the development of the biogas industry. • Efficiency criteria for the adsorption storage systems for biomethane and natural gas (methane) have been established. • Potential of Porous carbon material from Biomass as Energy Storage material was explored. • Comparison based on sorption capacity of porous carbon-based materials for biomethane and natural gas (methane) have been summarized. Due to environmental performance, biogas (biomethane) and natural gas (methane) are at the center of attention among renewable fuels due to environmental performance. Gas fuels have significant environmental advantages over traditional petroleum-based fuels or fossil fuels. Adsorption technology for methane adsorption, storage, and transportation (biomethane and natural gas) can link gas supplies to consumers. The review considers the advantages of biomethane and natural gas as energy sources. The efficiency criteria for methane carbon-based storage systems have been analyzed and discussed. Porous carbon-based adsorption materials have been found to be very useful in methane adsorption, storage, and transportation. The outstanding characteristics of carbon materials such as high surface area and large pore volume, tunability, high abundance of precursors, thermal stability, and environmental friendliness are important features for their extensive usability. The findings on the sorption capacity of porous carbon-based materials for biomethane and natural gas have been discussed in detail and summarized. Based on the findings, it was found that the ANG technology has great potential for using natural gas and biomethane in the transport sector, provided that an appropriate adsorbent with suitable properties is applied.
