Characterization of Municipal Solid Waste as Potential Fuel for Energy Needs.
Article in Materials (Basel, Switzerland), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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 continued expansion of cities in economic, population and geographical terms leads to significant environmental and infrastructural pressures, including the need for efficient municipal solid waste (MSW) management. This research focuses on the characterization of MSW generated in the city of Skopje and the investigation of its thermo-physical properties and energy utilization potential. The analyses cover physical and chemical properties, including density, moisture content, volatile matter, ash, and higher heating value, using adequate testing methods. The results indicate that MSW has a relatively high gross calorific value, surpassing typical MSW ranges comparable to those of solid fossil fuels. With approximately 79.42% volatile matter and a low ash content of 7.76%, the considered MSW demonstrates excellent combustibility. Chemical analysis reveals high carbon (53.12%) and hydrogen (7.69%) levels, supporting high energy value, while low nitrogen (0.84%) and sulfur (0.26%) levels ensure minimal NO
