Novel electro-oxidation unit for electro-disinfection of E. coli and some waterborne pathogens during wastewater treatment: batch and continuous experiments.
Article in Scientific reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
The prime objective of the current investigation is to evaluate a promising alternative method for disinfection wastewater using a novel electro-oxidation unit. The study focused on determining the best-operating conditions from a techno-economic point of view to be applied to continuous flow simulating actual disinfection modules. The treatment unit consisted of a Plexiglas container with a 3 L volume containing nine cylindrical shape electrodes (6 graphite as anode and 3 stainless steel as a cathode) connected to a variable DC power supply. Determination of the best operating parameters was investigated in batch mode on synthetic wastewater by studying the effect of contact time, current density (CD), total dissolved solids concentration (TDS), and bacterial density. Moreover, the continuous mode experiment was considered on real wastewater from an agricultural drain and the secondary wastewater treatment plant effluent before chlorination. The batch mode results revealed that the best applicable operational conditions that achieved the complete removal of E. coli were at a contact time of less than 5 min, TDS of 2000 mg/L, and CD of 4 mA/cm
