Chitosan has become the most known and second abundantly available recyclable, non-hazardous and eco-friendly biopolymer after cellulose with several advantageous biomedical, agriculture, and wastewater treatment applications. As nanotechnology has progressed, researchers have begun incorporating chitosan-based carbon compounds into various compounds, elements, and carbonaceous materials to increase their efficiency and biocompatibility. Chitosan carbon compounds have also been used directly in many applications due to their inherent chelating and antibacterial features and the presence of customizable functional groups. In this review, synthesis technologies and microstructure of chitosan composites and its carbon materials in biomedical, agriculture, and wastewater treatment concerning the administration of abiotic stress within plants, water accessibility for crops, scheming food bear pathogens, photothermal cancer rehabilitation, and heavy water pollutants absorption and removal methods are widely deliberated upon, with a relevant discussion of the techniques that can be used to put these into action. Chitosan is also utilized in miscellaneous applications, including the food sector and cosmetics. Overall, chitosan-based carbon compounds promise to extend agricultural practices while also addressing health concerns in an environmentally friendly manner.
