biorremediation, nanomaterials, metal ions, environmental remediation, aqueous mediaAbstract
This bibliometric study presents an analysis of research in the field of nanomaterials applied to environmental remediation processes for metal ions in aqueous media, to know their current status and development in recent years. A correlational-descriptive methodology has been used, reviewing publications from 1997 to 2022 in the Scopus database. The trends identified showed a steady growth in research and an increase in collaborative networks between institutions and researchers. In the last 10 years (2012 - 2022), the growth curve has reached a growth rate of 24.75%. Countries like China, India and the United States represent 75% of the total publications. The most representative keywords were bioremediation, heavy metals, and metal removal with more than 600 connections.
