Abstract
Biomass is a renewable and sustainable energy source that may be used to generate electricity or other forms of power, which is the need of hour. Henceforth, in this paper, an attempt has been made to explore the growth of the research trends in biomass production in India. For this, the data has been extracted from the web of science (WOS). The extracted data has been analyzed on the most prolific authors, countries, journals, organizations, and keywords. In total 995 documents have been extracted from 369 sources, these articles have been contributed by 2274 authors. The most prominent organization is “Indian Council of Agricultural Research”. Singh G from Arid Forest Res Inst, Jodhpur, Rajasthan is the most prolific author. The majority of the publications belong to the “Biotechnology Applied microbiology” of the Web of Science Categories.
