System-Level Analysis of Lignin Valorization in Lignocellulosic Biorefineries.
Article in iScience, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
We study the economics and energy efficiency of biorefineries employing lignin valorization. We use superstructure-based process synthesis to study different configurations under different types of constraints. Using optimization, we examine the impact of various parameters for lignin valorization such as bioproduct selling price, production cost, conversion coefficient, and energy requirement. The results show that the optimal strategy leading to a minimum ethanol selling price (MESP) of $3.44/GGE does not include lignin valorization. Results indicate that under certain scenarios, the optimal biorefinery strategies with lignin valorization tend to be energy deficient, and thus the optimal pretreatment technology may switch from γ-valerolactone-based deconstruction to ammonia fiber expansion. Further analysis is performed to study how improvements in combinations of selected parameters can lead to lower cost for a thermal-neural biorefinery.
