Abstract

Interest in the production of biodiesel has been growing widely in recent years, as it can totally or partially replace mineral diesel. Biodiesel is a fuel of renewable origin that contributes to the reduction of CO2 emissions. This study makes a brief bibliometric analysis of scientific publications available in the SCOPUS database on the topic of biodiesel published. The results suggest that the increase in academic interest on the topic is more accentuated from the year 2016 onwards, and keep growing up to the present. The regions with the highest number of publications are China, Brazil, India, the United States of America and Malaysia, and they almost maintain a partnership between their researchers. The regions with the highest rate of publications are also the largest producers and consumers of biodiesel. The term "Biodiesel Production" is the most commonly observed in the titles of articles.
