Utilizing Waste Plastic Bottle-Based Pyrolysis Oil as an Alternative Fuel.
Article in ACS omega, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
In the present work, an experimental investigation is carried out on the use of waste plastic oil produced from waste poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) bottles (WPOB) as an alternative fuel for diesel engines. The physical and chemical properties of WPOB were analyzed, and it was found that it has fuel properties similar to those of petroleum fuels. The WPOB was tested in a diesel engine to evaluate the effect of WPOB on combustion and emissions characteristics. In addition, particulate matter (PM) emissions generated by the combustion of WPOB were analyzed. The combustion of WPOB was retarded with respect to diesel fuel, resulting in higher carbon-based emissions. The thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) results show that the temperature to reach the maximum rate of soot oxidation was lower with WPOB combustion. Because of the significant delay at the start of combustion and increase in emissions, the direct use of WPOB in the diesel engine is not recommended. It is suggested that WPOB can be used as a blend component to reduce the amount of diesel fuel used in diesel engines. Thus, further study on the effect of diesel fuel blended with WPOB on the combustion and emissions characteristics was performed. The results reveal that the maximum WPOB present in diesel fuel to avoid the increase in carbon-based emissions is 20% by volume to keep combustion and emissions characteristics similar to those of diesel fuel.
