A Review of the Valorization of Dairy Industry Wastes through Thermochemical, Biological, and Integrated Processes for Value-Added Products.
Review in Food science of animal resources, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
The dairy industry is a significant player in the food industry, providing essential products such as milk, cheese, butter, yogurt, and milk powder to meet the global population's needs. However, the industry's activities have resulted in significant pollution, with heavy waste generation, disposal, and effluent emissions into the environment. Properly handling dairy waste residues is a major challenge, with up to 60% of the total treatment cost in the processing unit allocated to waste management. Therefore, valorizing dairy waste into useful products presents a significant advantage for the dairy industry. Numerous studies have proposed various approaches to convert dairy waste into useful products, including thermochemical, biological, and integrated conversion pathways. This review presents an overview of these approaches and identifies the best possible method for valorizing dairy waste and by-products. The research presents up-to-date information on the recovery of value-added products from dairy waste, such as biogas, biofertilizers, biopolymers, and biosurfactants, with a focus on integrating technology for environmental sustainability. Furthermore, the obstacles and prospects in dairy waste valorization have been presented. This review is a valuable resource for developing and deploying dairy waste valorization technologies, and it also presents research opportunities in this field.
