Aerobic granular sludge as a regenerative system for nutrient removal and metal recovery from landfill leachate.

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
Landfill leachate is a complex and variable wastewater rich in organic matter, ammonium, salts, and metals, with low biodegradability and highly fluctuating composition. Its management still largely relies on energy- and chemical-intensive treatment schemes, making the treatment of raw, undiluted landfill leachate particularly challenging. This study evaluates, at lab scale, the potential of aerobic granular sludge (AGS) for achieving simultaneous pollutant removal and metal recovery in a 2-L column sequencing batch reactor fed with raw, undiluted landfill leachate collected from an active municipal landfill site. The reactor was operated for 198 days without dilution or addition of co-substrates. This operation resulted in stable granulation and high removal efficiencies, 94% for chemical oxygen demand (COD) and 97% for total nitrogen. Cation analysis shows that assimilation reached 600.47 µmol g
