1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Solid-liquid separation (SLS) plays a dominant role in various chemical industries. Nowadays, low efficiency of SLS also become a significant problem in heavy metal (HM) wastewater treatment, affecting the effluent quality (HM concentration and turbidity) and overall process economy. In this context, we summarize here the occurrence of solids in HM wastewater, as well as typical SLS operations used in HM wastewater treatment, including sedimentation, flotation, and centrifugation. More important, this article reviews the improvement of the SLS operations by some technologies, including coagulation, flocculation, ballasted method, seeding method, granular sludge strategy, and external field enhancement. It is noted that abiological granular sludge strategy and magnetic field enhancement often possess higher SLS efficiency (faster settling velocity or shorter separation time) than other methods. Hence, the two strategies stand out as promising tools for improving SLS in HM wastewater treatment, but further research is required regarding scalability, economy, and reliability.
