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

Arsenic sulfide residue (ASR), a by-product from the treatment of arsenic-bearing acidic wastewater, is abundantly generated but not properly disposed of in China. The utilization of such high-content arsenic waste residue is limited by the market. The traditional methods of stabilization/solidification (S/S) by lime cement or iron salt have a large mass/volume addition, high dumping cost and secondary pollution risk. In this paper, hydrothermal technology was used to treat three kinds of ASRs obtained from different smelters to minimize waste. The leaching toxicity and chemical speciation of the generated products was also evaluated by TCLP and BCR analyses. It was found that the hydrothermal treatment could greatly reduce the volume and moisture content of the ASRs. TCLP tests showed that the leachability of arsenic and heavy metals significantly decreased after the treatment. According to the BCR analysis, most of the unstable As, Cd and Cr transformed into a residual fraction. Finally, XRD, SEM, Raman and XPS techniques were carried out to reveal the mechanism. As a result, hydrothermal treatment can efficiently achieve the dehydration, volume reduction and stabilization/solidification of ASRs.
