1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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 desire to protect the environment and the increasing demand for green methods in dealing with environmental problems are leading researchers to consider a sustainable and reliable method for treating dyeing wastewater. One of these methods is treatment using the electrocoagulation system. In this study a novel laboratory-scale electrocoagulation reactor was developed in which the reactor body itself served as the cathode, eliminating the internal cathode plate and improving current distribution and operational stability. The effects of electrode spacing and treatment time using aluminum (Al) and iron (Fe) electrodes, on the contaminant removal efficiency were investigated. The effects of electrode spacing and treatment time were studied by testing of electrode spacing of 2, 5, and 7 cm and retention periods of 10 to 30 min at 5 min intervals. The results showed that with the Al electrode, the most effective performance was achieved at the electrode spacing of 5 cm and treatment time of 20 min. Under these optimum conditions, the efficiencies for removing BOD, COD, TSS, color, and turbidity were calculated to be 83, 83, 97, 98, and 93%, respectively. The findings of this research demonstrates that the electrocoagulation system has high potential in the treatment of dyeing wastewaters.
