Resumo: | The waste of electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) has been one of the largest and growing wastes generated in the world, turning into a great challenge for humanity. The objective of the article was to map the scientific production on WEEE in the last decade (2012–2022), adopting a bibliometric analysis as a research method based on the survey of documents obtained from the Web of Science database. A total of 278 research and review articles were selected for analysis, with the use of Vosviewer and RStudio software. As a result, there was a significant increase in the number of publications in the last decade, with 86% of articles published between 2015 and 2022. In addition, it was possible to obtain the ranking of the most important authors, and the journals most used for publication of articles; it was found that the Asian, European and American continents had the greatest contribution. In the analysis of document coupling, combined with that of keywords, the main areas connected to WEEE currently researched were found: electronic waste recycling; environmental impacts; sustainability; circular economy; efficient e-waste management and e-waste recycling technologies; in addition, the keywords “e-waste” and “polybrominated diphenyl ethers” were the most frequent words used by the authors to represent the theme. It can be concluded that the theme has stood out over the last few years, with several publications providing managerial and political implications for researchers and professionals. |

O objetivo do artigo foi mapear a produção cientifica sobre REEE na última década (2012–2022), adotando como método de pesquisa uma análise bibliométrica com base no levantamento de documentos obtidos da base de dados Web of Science. O total de 278 artigos de pesquisa e revisão foi selecionado para análise utilizando o software Vosviewer e RStudio. Obteve-se, como resultado, um aumento significativo nos números de publicações na última década, com 86% dos artigos publicados entre 2015 e 2022. Além disso, foi possível obter o ranking dos autores mais importantes e revistas mais utilizadas para publicação dos artigos; constatou-se que o continente asiático, europeu e americano foram os que tiveram maior contribuição. Na análise de acoplamento de documentos, combinada com a de palavras-chaves, constataram-se as principais áreas pesquisadas atualmente em relação ao REEE: reciclagem de lixo eletrônico; impactos ambientais; sustentabilidade; economia circular; gestão eficiente lixo eletrônico e tecnologias para reciclagem lixo eletrônico. além disso, as palavras-chave “e-waste” e “polybrominated diphenyl ethers” foram as com maior frequência utilizadas pelos autores para representar a temática. Pode-se concluir que a temática tem se destacado ao longo dos últimos anos com diversas publicações, fornecendo implicações gerenciais e políticas para pesquisadores e profissionais.Associação Brasileira de Engenharia Sanitária e Ambiental (ABES)2023-11-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdftext/xmlhttps://www.rbciamb.com.br/Publicacoes_RBCIAMB/article/view/163410.5327/Z2176-94781634Revista Brasileira de Ciências Ambientais (RBCIAMB); v. 58 n. 3 (2023): RBCIAMB - ISSN 2176-9478 - Setembro; 342-351Revista Brasileira de Ciências Ambientais (RBCIAMB); Vol. 58 No. 3 (2023): RBCIAMB - ISSN 2176-9478 - September; 342-3512176-94781808-4524reponame:Revista Brasileira de Ciências Ambientais (Online)instname:Associação Brasileira de Engenharia Sanitária e Ambiental (ABES)instacron:ABESenghttps://www.rbciamb.com.br/Publicacoes_RBCIAMB/article/view/1634/915https://www.rbciamb.com.br/Publicacoes_RBCIAMB/article/view/1634/954Copyright (c) 2023 Brazilian Journal of Environmental Sciences (RBCIAMB)http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessBizerra, Magdala GelilarckSantos, Liliana AndreaCordeiro, Luiz Filipe AlvesSales, Aldo Torres2024-03-14T20:06:00Zoai:ojs.www.rbciamb.com.br:article/1634Revistahttp://www.rbciamb.com.br/index.php/Publicacoes_RBCIAMBhttps://www.rbciamb.com.br/Publicacoes_RBCIAMB/oairbciamb@abes-dn.org.br||2176-94781804-4524opendoar:2024-03-14T20:06Revista Brasileira de Ciências Ambientais (Online) - Associação Brasileira de Engenharia Sanitária e Ambiental (ABES)false |
