“…In contrast, to facilitate collaboration analysis, Gephi provides the ability to edit nodes and crawl information, while CiteSpace provides less flexibility to edit objects (nodes, edges, and labels; Yang et al ., ). Gephi enables collaboration examination by applying weights to each node within the network space of the extracted data (Nunnally and Bernstein, ; Y. Wang et al ., ). In addition to previous data‐analysis practices, Gephi has been used to examine the level of collaboration observed among countries, authors and institutions in recent studies (Li, Reniers, Cozzani, & Khan, 2016; Wang et al ., ; Zhong et al ., ).…”

The study explores the intellectual structure, development and evolution of energy crisis and economic growth research through bibliometric analysis of research articles on energy‐growth nexus from 2000 to 2017 by using Citespace where Gephi is used to analyse the authors collaboration. The analysis incorporates 27,152 references cited by 344 authors, in 1165 articles and from 330 journals. The results of study quantitatively present the most cited articles, authors, countries, institutions and intellectual structure with data visualization in the knowledge domain of energy‐growth nexus. The study categorizes the major research areas in energy‐growth nexus research as carbon dioxide emission, electricity consumption, heterogeneous Panel, real income, renewable energy and financial development. The study discusses emerging trends which provide the future research fronts and intellectual development within the framework of energy‐growth nexus.

“…Therefore, the high operational costs and potential social opposition of MSW incineration nowadays may make it less economically sustainable and politically attractive in developed countries. As the largest developing countries, China had gone for rapid expansion of MSW incineration over past 15 years, and its total incineration capacity has already become the highest across all nations, and even exceeded the whole of the EU [39,40]. Zhao et al [4] reported the issues of incomplete MSW combustion and elevated air pollution in China, where the low energy content and high moisture content of MSW are major difficulties commonly experienced in developing countries [41].…”

Municipal solid waste (MSW) management has emerged as probably the most pressing issue many governments nowadays are facing. Traditionally, Waste-to-Energy(WtE) is mostly associated with incineration, but now, with the emergence of the bioeconomy, it embraces a broader definition comprising any processing technique that can generate electricity/heat or produce a waste-derived fuel. Under the ambit of the circular economy many nations are looking for, additional effort must be made to be sure of acquiring the most updated information and paving a sustainable path for managing MSW in such a frame. In this regard, we have undertaken a critical review of various technologies, with their updated progress, involved in the exploitation of MSW as a renewable resource, along with the critical advantages and limitations on energy and material cycling for sustainable MSW management. Incineration, the most widely used method, is nowadays difficult to further apply due to its dubious reputation and social opposition. Meanwhile, to address the organic fraction of MSW which currently is mostly unrecycled and causes disposal issues, the biological approach presents an attractive option. The new emphasis of bioeconomy leads us to understand how environmental biotechnologies should be better connected/integrated for more sustainable MSW management. This article is concluded with advances of future prospects, which can serve as a timely reminder to encourage competent authorities/researchers to work towards further improvement of the present MSW management system.

This article discusses the scientific production carried out by the largest bioenergy research program in Brazil, the São Paulo Research Foundation Bioenergy Research Program (BIOEN-FAPESP), in the period from 2008 to 2019. The study draws on a list of BIOEN publications on the Web of Science (WoS) platform, containing over 1000 articles, grouped under ResearcherID H-6149-2012. The methods applied in the study were based on the information specific to each article and involved the construction of networks including authors, countries, research subjects, and direct citations. Communities were built based on network properties and their content was extracted from articles abstracts, titles and keywords, using text mining techniques. We also obtained quantitative measures for BIOEN scientific output. The analysis found that BIOEN produced relevant knowledge, and contributed to the emergence of new research areas in the bioenergy sector. Overall, BIOEN was decisive for the advancement of bioenergy research in Brazil, and resulted in the expansion of the knowledge base for ethanol production.
