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

This work aims to select a photoreactor flow configuration and operational conditions that maximize the Photocatalytic Space-time Yield in a photoelectrocatalytic reactor to degrade Reactive Red 239 textile dye. A numerical study by Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) was carried out to model the phenomena of momentum and species transport and surface reaction kinetics. The photoreactor flow configuration was selected between axial (AF) and tangential (TF) inlet and outlet flow, and it was found that the TF configuration generated a higher Space-time Yield (STY) than the AF geometry in both laminar and turbulent regimes due to the formation of a helical movement of the fluid, which generates velocity in the circumferential and axial directions. In contrast, the AF geometry generates a purely axial flow. In addition, to maximize the Photocatalytic Space-time Yield (PSTY), it is necessary to use solar radiation as an external radiation source when the flow is turbulent. In conclusion, the PSTY can be maximized up to a value of 45 g/day-kW at an inlet velocity of 0.2 m/s (inlet Reynolds of 2830), solar radiation for external illumination, and internal illumination by UV-LEDs of 14 W/m
