Enhanced Chromium (VI) Adsorption onto Waste Pomegranate-Peel-Derived Biochar for Wastewater Treatment: Performance and Mechanism.
Article in Toxics, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Surface chemical modification allows for the rational construction of biochar with desirable structures and functionalities for environment purification. Fruit-peel-derived adsorbing material has been well studied in the adsorption of heavy-metal removal due to its abundance and non-toxicity, but its precise mechanism in removing chromium-containing pollutants remains unclear. Herein, we explored the potential application of engineered biochar prepared from fruit waste via chemical modification to remove chromium (Cr) from an aqueous solution. By synthesizing two types of agricultural residue-derived adsorbents, including pomegranate peel adsorbent (PG) and its modified product, pomegranate-peel-derived biochar (PG-B), via chemical and thermal decomposition methods, we elucidated the adsorption property of Cr(VI) on the studied materials and identified the cation retention mechanism of the adsorption process. Batch experiments and varied characterizations demonstrated that superior activity was exhibited in PG-B, which can contribute to the porous surfaces caused by pyrolysis and effective active sites resulting from alkalization. The highest Cr(VI) adsorption capacity is obtained at pH 4, a dosage of 6.25 g L
