“…Following the rapid growth of scientific research, bibliometric analysis is now frequently applied to analyze the research dynamics in several fields. This type of study focuses on the quantitative assessment of publications as well as the related bibliographic citations and proxies [49]. Garrido et al [25] performed bibliometric analysis to analyze and provide a global overview of microalgae research.…”

“…Besides, they also provide scholars with access to millions of peer-reviewed, open-access scientific documents. The citation report of each journal was generated based on the papers chosen for this study to compute the h-index [49].

“…Keyword analysis indicates researchers' emphasis on a specific study topic, making it an important component of bibliometric analysis [68]. The visualization network map (Figure 6) was created with VOSviewer to assess the occurrence relationships between the keywords collected from phycobiliprotein research articles [49]. Five clusters with different colors were determined in the keyword map, with a high degree of overlap (Table 9).…”

Phycobiliproteins are gaining popularity as long-term, high-value natural products which can be alternatives to synthetic products. This study analyzed research trends of phycobiliproteins from 1909 to 2020 using a bibliometric approach based on the Scopus database. The current findings showed that phycobiliprotein is a burgeoning field in terms of publications outputs with “biochemistry, genetics, and molecular biology” as the most related and focused subject. The Journal of Applied Phycology was the most productive journal in publishing articles on phycobiliproteins. Although the United States of America (U.S.A.) contributed the most publications on phycobiliproteins, the Chinese Academy of Sciences (China) is the institution with the largest number of publications. The most productive author on phycobiliproteins was Glazer, Alexander N. (U.S.A.). The U.S.A. and Germany were at the forefront of international collaboration in this field. According to the keyword analysis, the most explored theme was the optimization of microalgae culture parameters and phycobiliproteins extraction methods. The bioactivity properties and extraction of phycobiliproteins were identified as future research priorities. Synechococcus and Arthrospira were the most cited genera. This study serves as an initial step in fortifying the phycobiliproteins market, which is expected to exponentially expand in the future. Moreover, further research and global collaboration are necessary to commercialize phycobiliproteins and increase the consumer acceptability of the pigments and their products.

“…In today's global civilization, the pressure on fossil fuels has resulted in the attenuation of global reserves [1]. Likewise, the burning of fossil fuels for energy emits significant quantities of greenhouse gases (GHG) that jeopardize humans and the environment [2,3]. Hence, there is an urgent need for long-term strategies for the exploitation of renewable energy technologies (RETs) and clean fuels that could complement or substitute fossil fuels in the short or long term [4,5].…”

“…The findings showed that 225 tonnes of CP can generate 75 million litres of gas with a methane content of 60 vol.%. Furthermore, the analyses showed that CP is a potentially suitable feedstock for establishing biogas plants with capacities ranging from 300 m3 -Preprints (www.preprints.org) | NOT PEER-REVIEWED | Posted: 28 October 2021 14 500 m 3 and replace 300 tonnes of fuel wood utilised in the regions under study and prevent. Lastly, the valorisation of CP as fuel for biogas production dramatically reduces the emission of toxic and greenhouse gases generated annually from the open burning (Figure 5) of CP in the country.Another important thermal technology for the valorisation of CP is waste incineration.…”

The large-scale processing of Cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz.) generates significant quantities of solid wastes annually. Cassava peels (CP) account for 5 wt.% - 30 wt.% of wastes from the processing of cassava tubers. The poor disposal and management of CP pose risks to human health, safety and the environment. Therefore, there is an urgent need to identify and examine low cost, socially acceptable and environmentally friendly strategies to mitigate the immediate and long terms disposal and management challenges. Lack of such measures results in the accumulation of CP wastes, which are currently buried, combusted, or dumped in open fields. Therefore, this paper reviewed the potential routes for the biochemical, thermochemical, and plasma valorisation of CP. The literature reviewed revealed that biochemical technologies such as anaerobic digestion (AD) and fermentation are the most widely utilised approaches currently adopted for CP valorisation. AD produces biogas (methane 50-72 vol. % and carbon dioxide 25-45 vol. %), whereas fermentation yields bioethanol. However, the numerous challenges such as substrate-induced inhibition, associated with the biochemical processes hamper microbial degradation, methane formation, and process efficiency. Furthermore, the processes generate secondary wastes or digestate/sludge, which requires additional processing before disposal. Therefore, innovative thermal, thermochemical, and plasma technologies were proposed to valorise CP into syngas, biofuels, bioenergy, biochemicals, and fertilizers, among others. However, the waste products of fermentation cannot be effectively utilised as bio-fertilizers, whereas bioethanol causes corrosion in engines. Overall, the biochemical, thermal, thermochemical and plasma technologies can effectively valorise CP for effective net energy generation.

Concerns related to increasing CO 2 emission and its effects on global warming and climate change have been increased with increasing the global consumption of fossil fuels. One solution to respond to this challenge is the development and utilization of carbon capturing and storage technologies. Among different carbon capturing technologies, direct air capture (DAC) reduces CO 2 emissions from air. While the technology readiness level (TRL) of DAC is in the demonstration stage, identifying the commercialization research gaps and possible opportunities can help with diffusion and adoption of the technology. This research uses a knowledge discovery in research databases, based on bibliometric analysis and data mining, to understand DAC research and development's current status and future. Then, we identify the critical areas of the research gap for commercialization. The bibliometric analysis results show that DAC has not yet reached its maturity level compared with other carbon capture technologies (CCTs). However, there are different opportunities for the development of this technology.The results indicate that (a) new systematic designs, improvement in nano-catalysts, increase in the capturing capacity, (b) economic and investment improvements in combination with the environmental assessment of the optimized DAC technology, (c) assessment of future prospects, (d) integration with alternative energy supply sources especially renewable energy to respond to the required energy and process integration with current carbon emitted processes, (e) technology demonstration and readiness assessment, and (f) policy and uncertainty analysis of the market are the key areas that should be investigated for the success of this technology in the competitive market.
