This chapter provides a brief outline of the characteristics and applications of graphene as a support in different heterogeneous catalytic processes. Graphene, an allotrope of carbon having two-dimensional hexagonal arrangements, is an easily available and low-cost support for various catalytic conversions. The high surface area, thermal and chemical stability, lattice arrangement, defects, etc., are the fundamental structural contributions of graphene as support in heterogeneous catalysis. Synthesis of graphene and binding of one or more metal nanoparticles on it has been achieved via different well-established methodologies that are highlighted here. Modifications in graphene with numerous physical and chemical methods have enhanced its overall activity and selectivity as support.
