Bibliometric Analysis of Research Status, Hotspots, and Prospects of UV/PS for Environmental Pollutant Removal

There are various methods for environmental organic pollutant degradation and removal, among which ultraviolet/persulfate has drawn significant attention due to its excellent oxidizing properties, high maneuverability, and less formation of by-products. To comprehensively assess the development of ultraviolet/persulfate, a bibliometric analysis was conducted based on relevant literature indexed by Web of Science from 2002 to 2024. The findings revealed a growing number of publications, with China, Iran, and the United States being the top three countries with the highest total number of publications. Robust regional collaborations were evident. Additionally, Chinese and American scholars presented more significant activity in this field, and their publications exhibited higher quality. Furthermore, the current research hotspots, as indicated by keywords, primarily focused on the degradation mechanism of ultraviolet/persulfate and the reaction kinetic model simulation. Bibliometric results underscored that ultraviolet/persulfate, as an effective and environmentally friendly disinfection technology, possessed substantial potential for controlling diverse environmental pollutants, such as antibiotics, dyes, natural organic substances, heavy metals, microorganisms, and so on. Future research might concentrate on developing new catalytic composites and optimization of the photoactivation system.

Heavy metal pollution in the soil of contaminated sites in China: Research status and pollution assessment over the past two decades

Contaminated sites are receiving more and more attention internationally because they pose a serious threat to the ecological environment and human health. Although the research focused on heavy metals pollution in the soil of contaminated sites has been rapidly developing over the past two decades, systematic research status analysis and pollution assessment are still lacking. Here, through the “front page filtering” script and successive screening of the relevant studies, the research status of heavy metal pollution in the soil of contaminated sites worldwide and especially in China had been synthetically analyzed. The result showed that China and USA were the most active countries in related research, and the main research subjects were the assessment of contaminated sites and remediation methods. The keyword co-occurrence network of heavy metal contaminated sites in China was divided into three clusters, focusing on different environmental media, physical-chemical remediation and phytoremediation technologies. The types of contaminated sites in China mainly included mining areas (the largest proportion), industrial zones, sewage irrigation, and dismantling sites, etc. Cd and Pb were the most widely studied heavy metal in China. The pollution of heavy metals in the soils of contaminated sites was ranked as: Cd > Pb > Cu/Zn/Hg > As/Cr > Ni, and it was more serious in southeast China than northwestern China.
