Abstract
- Biomass energy has the characteristics of renewable and decentralized and plays a certain role in mitigating climate change. Now it is considered to be a very important renewable energy and has great potential for development. Based on Science Citation Index Expanded and Social Sciences Citation Index databases, this paper retrieved the publication data through topic search using the keywords biomass energy and related words during 2007–2016. This paper investigates the development characteristics in biomass energy research based on bibliometrics methods and data mining techniques. The main purpose of this paper is to explore the knowledge structure and citation landscape in this field. The general development trends, Essential Science Indicators publications characteristics, and leading journals in this area are discussed. The main advantage of this analysis is based on massive data which can, to some extent, reveal the macrostate of the development of the field. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
