Abstract: |
Remediation of contaminated soil is a hot research topic in the field of agricultural, ecological and environmental sciences. In order to understand the current status of world-wide research on contaminated soil remediation, research literature during the period of 2005~2013 was retrieved from the Science Citation Index Expanded(SCIE) database and analyzed using bibliometrics. Results showed that the quantity of publications in the field of contaminated soil remediation increased steadily year by year. China, United States and India were the top three countries in the number of publications, and showed better performance in technical maturity and research emphasis. The quality and the impact of publications from the United States, China, Britain and India were higher than those from other countries, indicating that the developing countries, such as China and India, have enhanced research capacities in the field of contaminated soil remediation. The Chinese Academy of Sciences, Zhejiang University, and Spanish National Research Council were the major paper-publishing institutions. The National Natural Science Foundation of China, National Basic Research Program of China(973), European Union, U.S. Department of Energy, and National High Technology Research and Development Program of China(863) were the main funding sources. The scientific research activities spanned across a wide range of disciplines, with the most publications appeared in the environmental science and ecology. The interdisciplinary research became a trend. Remediation technologies of contaminated soils would be diverse, user-friendly and highly efficient in the future. More attention should be also paid to evaluation of performance efficiency and economic benefits of remediation techniques. These results provide important insights to the development of soil science and research planning for contaminated soil remediation in our country. |
