1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

To enable a future society based on sun and wind energy, transforming electricity into chemical energy in the form of fuels is crucial. This transformation can be achieved in an electrolyzer performing water splitting, where at the anode, water is oxidized to oxygen-oxygen evolution reaction (OER)-to produce protons and electrons that can be combined at the cathode to form hydrogen-hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). While hydrogen is a desired fuel, the obtained oxygen has no economic value. A techno-economically more suitable alternative is hybrid water electrolysis, where value-added oxidation reactions of abundant organic feedstocks replace the OER. However, tremendous challenges remain for the industrial-scale application of hybrid water electrolysis. Herein, these challenges, including the higher kinetic overpotentials of organic oxidation reactions compared to the OER, the small feedstock availably and product demand of these processes compared to the HER (and carbon dioxide reduction), additional purifications costs, and electrocatalytic challenges to meet the industrially required activities, selectivities, and especially long-term stabilities are critically discussed. It is anticipated that this perspective helps the academic research community to identify industrially relevant research questions concerning hybrid water electrolysis.
