Optimization of Chemical Synthesis Processes on an Industrial Scale: Advances in Chemical Engineering and Sustainable Technologies in Peru

Abstract

A documentary review was carried out on the production and publication of research papers related to the study of the variables Chemical Synthesis, Chemical Engineering and Sustainable Technologies. The purpose of the bibliometric analysis proposed in this document was to know the main characteristics of the volume of publications registered in the Scopus database during the period 2017-2022, achieving the identification of 190 publications. The information provided by this platform was organized through graphs and figures, categorizing the information by Year of Publication, Country of Origin, Area of Knowledge and Type of Publication. Once these characteristics have been described, the position of different authors on the proposed topic is referenced through a qualitative analysis. Among the main findings made through this research, it is found that China, with 40 publications, was the Latin American country with the highest scientific production registered in the name of authors affiliated with institutions of that nation. The Area of Knowledge that made the greatest contribution to the construction of bibliographic material related to the study of Chemical Synthesis, Chemical Engineering and Sustainable Technologies was Chemical Engineering with 75 published documents, and the most used Publication Type during the period indicated above were Journal Articles with 48% of the total scientific production.
