In Situ Growth of MIL-100(Fe) on Coconut Shell Activated Carbon for High-Efficiently Removal of Microplastics from Water.
Article in Polymers, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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 widespread use of plastics has inevitably led to the accumulation of persistent plastic debris in aquatic systems, where gradual fragmentation generates microplastics (MPs) that threaten ecological and biological health. Their small size, chemical stability, and resistance to degradation make effective removal particularly challenging. In this work, a composite adsorbent was fabricated through the in situ solvothermal growth of Materials of Institute Lavoisier 100 (Iron) (MIL-100(Fe)) onto coconut shell-derived activated carbon (CSAC), yielding a monolithic material denoted as CSAC@MIL-100(Fe). The integration of porous C with a metal-organic framework created a hierarchically structured adsorbent rich in accessible binding sites. The composite achieved a maximum polystyrene (PS) removal efficiency of 97.4% and maintained 91.44% efficiency after seven regeneration cycles. Stable adsorption performance was observed across a broad pH range. Structural and chemical analyses (scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS)) combined with adsorption modeling revealed heterogeneous multilayer adsorption behavior consistent with the Freundlich isotherm and pseudo-second-order kinetics. π-π interactions, electrostatic attraction, and coordination effects jointly governed PS capture. The Langmuir maximum adsorption capacity reached 746.27 mg/g. These findings demonstrate a practical and recyclable strategy for efficient MP remediation in aquatic environments.
