Engineering Microbial-Electrochemical Interfaces for Sustainable Water Purification.
Review in Water environment research : a research publication of the Water Environment Federation, 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
Electrofusion is an emerging frontier in sustainable water purification, integrating microbial activity with electrochemical processes to achieve efficient and eco-friendly treatment. Bioeletrofusion improves microbial fuel cells (MFCs) and bioelectrochemical systems by allowing controlled membrane fusion in electric fields. This makes electron transfer pathways better and increases catalytic efficiency. This enables superior degradation of organic pollutants, pathogen elimination, and recovery of clean water with minimal chemical use. The technology stands out for its dual functionality: treating diverse municipal and industrial effluents while simultaneously generating bioelectricity, thereby advancing circular economy principles. With its low energy demand and adaptability, electrofusion offers a scalable solution well suited for decentralized and resilient water infrastructure. Current research focuses on optimizing electrode materials, engineering microbial consortia, and integrating smart monitoring systems to support real-world deployment. Collectively, bioelectrofusion holds significant promise for transforming wastewater treatment and expanding access to clean water worldwide.
