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

The valorization of coffee cherry waste through hydrothermal carbonization (HTC) was investigated using various organic and inorganic acid catalysts to produce platform chemicals. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of these catalysts for enhancing reaction rates, improving yields, and promoting selectivity. The results showed that sulfuric acid and adipic acid were the most effective, each resulting in a 20% increase in the total yield, demonstrating the potential of organic acids as efficient catalysts in HTC. Other catalysts, such as benzoic acid and phenylacetic acid, also showed promising results, while butyric acid significantly decreased the total yield. The most abundantly produced platform chemicals were sugars, followed by formic acid, levulinic acid, HMF, and furfural. These findings highlight the potential of coffee cherry waste as a valuable resource for producing key chemicals, and the feasibility of hydrothermal carbonization as a sustainable approach for biomass valorization. This study emphasizes the importance of selecting the appropriate catalysts to optimize the conversion process and maximize the extraction of valuable chemicals. The environmental and economic implications of these findings are significant, as they can contribute to the development of sustainable and efficient biomass utilization technologies that could transform agricultural waste into high-value products while reducing waste and promoting a circular economy.
