Functionalized carbon nanotubes for selective lithium recovery from spent lithium-ion batteries: a sustainable approach to resource recycling.

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 intensive use of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) has led to a surge in battery waste, which is a valuable secondary resource for metal recovery. Discarded LIBs, rich in critical metals like lithium and cobalt, offer a concentrated and economically attractive source, addressing supply limitations and environmental protection. The current study presents a novel, low-cost method for selectively recovering lithium ions from both synthetic solutions and LIB waste. Using a newly created adsorbent, mesoporous carbon nanotubes functionalized with aminomethylenephosphonic acid (CNT-AMP), lithium ions were selectively extracted. Extensive characterization of the structural and functional features of CNT-AMP and/or CNT-AMP/Li was carried out utilizing a variety of techniques, including FT-IR, XPS, BET, magnetization investigations, TEM,
