Influx of Near-Infrared Technology in Microplastic Community: A Bibliometric Analysis

2022
Monika Rani, Stefania Federici, Laura E. Depero

Summary

Researchers conducted a bibliometric analysis of the growing body of scientific literature on near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy applications for microplastic detection and identification. The study maps research trends, key contributors, and emerging frontiers in the use of NIR technology within the microplastics research community.

The abundance of microplastics in the environment is a continuous threat to every part of the ecosystem. The scientific community has been urged to help solve the problem, and various studies, particularly in the recent decade, have been published. The goal of this study is to investigate and assess research trends, leading publications, authors, and countries and frontiers in the influx of near-infrared spectroscopy in microplastic research.
