Multifunctional Membranes for Simultaneous Oil/Water Separation and Organic Pollutant Removal: A Review.
Review in Membranes, 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
Oily wastewater commonly contains dissolved organic contaminants such as dyes, antibiotics, and phenolic compounds. Conventional stepwise treatment processes involve complex operation, high energy consumption, and severe membrane fouling. Multifunctional membranes integrating oil/water separation, pollutant adsorption or catalytic degradation, and membrane self-cleaning provide a promising solution for treating complex oily wastewater. This review summarizes recent advances in multifunctional membranes based on metal oxides, two-dimensional (2D) materials, three-dimensional (3D) porous structures, and biomass-derived materials. Key strategies, including micro and nanoscale structure regulation, wettability control, interlayer channel optimization, heterojunction construction, and active site engineering, are discussed together with the synergistic mechanisms involving oil/water separation, adsorption enrichment, photocatalysis, and Fenton reactions. Approaches for improving membrane flux, separation efficiency, degradation activity, antifouling performance, and cycling stability are also reviewed. Finally, challenges related to scalable fabrication, adaptability to real wastewater, long-term stability, and standardized evaluation are outlined, providing guidance for the design and practical application of multifunctional membranes.
