Foam Fractionation as an Efficient Method for the Separation and Recovery of Surfactants and Surface-Inactive Agents: State of the Art.
Review in ACS omega, 2025. 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
Surface-active agents are widely used in industrial processes and products for daily use. Surfactants are essential in consumer products, although they are environmentally harmful. Consequently, new technologies are being sought to address the surfactant waste problem effectively. Foam fractionation is a multifunctional method of removing or purifying surface-active and inactive agents. This environmentally friendly technology enables foam separation of many compounds based on adsorption at the gas-liquid interface. The technology has been employed in wastewater treatment, remediation, metallurgy, biotechnology, pharmacy, and the cosmetics and food industries. This review highlights process handling and equipment design in terms of the enrichment and recovery of many proteins, surfactants, metal ions, and pollutants. Furthermore, the mode of action, basic laws, and mechanisms of the technology are explained, and relevant examples of the application of foam fractionation will be provided.
