Trend in publications related to biomethane using a bibliometric approach

Resumen

The emission of greenhouse gases emitted into the atmosphere by the burning of fossil fuels has allowed the development of biofuels such as biomethane. The aim of this research was to explore the characteristics of biomethane literature from 1978 to 2020 based on the database of Scopus and its implications using indicators bibliometrics. The information in the database was analyzed through the Gompertz model to determine the specific growth rate over the years. Also, maps were elaborated with the VOSviewer software to show in a visual way the collaboration between authors and keywords related to the topic of study. Documents were examined in a variety of aspects of the publication characteristics such as document type, language, authorship, countries, institutions, journals, high-cited papers. Results showed that the evolution of publications grew exponentially from 2006 to 2020, the specific speed of growth determined with the Gompertz model was 0.4 0.095 years-1 (R2>0.99). 52% of publications are concentrated in five countries (Italy, India, China, the United States and Spain). Bioresource Technology is the journal with the highest number of publications and citations, the authors publish in quartile 1 and 2 journals. The biomethane topic has a growing number of publications and citations due to the collaboration between researchers from different countries. The present work can be contrasted with the analysis of bibliographic indicators with other databases to determine the level of collaboration with other journals with different index.
