Performance of maize tassel activated carbon for COD removal from industrial wastewater under optimized conditions.
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Industrial wastewater, laden with hazardous organic and inorganic contaminants, poses critical environmental risks. Adsorption via activated carbon stands out as a scalable and efficient remediation strategy due to its simplicity and adaptability. This study evaluates maize tassel-derived activated carbon (MTAC), synthesized from agricultural waste, as a low-cost and sustainable solution to remove organic pollutants, with emphasis on reducing chemical oxygen demand (COD) in industrial effluents. A comprehensive assessment of critical parameters (pH, temperature, adsorbent dosage, contact time, and agitation speed) was performed to optimize the adsorption process. MTAC exhibited a high surface area of 510.4 m
