Abstract

This paper presents an analysis of the international scientific publications in the green manufacturing area. We used the Web of Science database to identify 239 articles published between 1991 and 2013. The articles involved 589 authors from 36 countries, 246 institutions, and 142 journals/conferences. We found that 51.4% of the articles were published within the last five years. Among the countries involved, the most prolific were the United States and China. The most prolific journal was the Journal of Cleaner Production with 19 articles. Most of the authors, 85.7%, were one-time authors in the field. The highest yield was 11 articles by one author, and the most cited author received 368 citations. We concluded that the green manufacturing area has increased its relevance in recent years by focusing on theoretical and empirical-theoretical studies. (AU)
