An Analysis of Global Trends from 1990 to 2022 of Microbial Fuel Cells: A Bibliometric Analysis

Microbial fuel cells have undergone several modifications since their creation, mainly due to the different substrates that can be used as for generation of electrical energy. In this research, a deep and updated analysis characteristics literature published in Scopus database from 1990 30 December 2022 has been carried out, finding 7055 documents indexed. The most keywords are microbial cells, performance, electricity generation. From 2011 present, 5289 article-type were published; article entitled “Microbial Fuel Cells: Methodology Technology” by Logan B. E. et al., 2006 Pennsylvania State University, USA Environmental Science Technology journal ACS publisher was cited (4496 citations). On other hand, recent years, Chinese universities begun produce highlight number positioning top ten, with six having greatest presence publications country highest indexed (2773) Scopus.
