Biosorption as green technology for the recovery and separation of rare earth elements.
Review in World journal of microbiology & biotechnology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 15 papers.
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.
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
Rare earth elements (REE) have great demand for sustainable energy and the high-end technology sector. The high similarity of REE owing to the nature of their electronic configurations increases the difficulty and costs of the development of chemical processes for their separation and recovery. In this way, the development of green technologies is highly relevant for replacing conventional unit operations of extractive metallurgy, viz. precipitation, liquid-liquid and solid-liquid extraction, and ion-exchange. Biosorption is a physicochemical and metabolically-independent biological process based on a variety of mechanisms including absorption, adsorption, ion-exchange, surface complexation and precipitation that represents a biotechnological cost-effective innovative way for the recovery of REE from aqueous solutions. This mini-review provides an overview and current scenario of biosorption technologies existing to recover REE, seeking to address the possibilities of using a green technology approach for wastewater treatment, as well as for the recovery of these high valued elements in the REE production chain.
