Abstract

Air pollution is a significant concern in this fast-growing world. In this era of urbanization, the level of pollution in the atmosphere increases gradually, and it is essential to find the required solution to the rising atmospheric pollution problems. Pollution in developing countries’ households is a booming issue that affects people’s health and economic value. Using VOSviewer, a scientometric analysis is done to portray the trends and issues in the “household air pollution” (HAP) field by accurate pictures. Over 14,703 documents have been discovered from the Web of Science web portal in the field of HAP between 2019 and 2023. In this study, mapping analysis is employed to understand the study better. The mapping analysis’s subjects are co-authorship, co-occurrence, keyword analysis, and bibliographic coupling. An upper trend timeline is used over data from the published articles collected. By keeping citation and publication data in the view, USA and China are dominant in the research of HAP. This study roams around four research domains and covers three major themes for the given timeline. The case studies of HAP and its health and environmental effects, the exposure of pollutants, indoor air pollution, organic aerosol exposure and its effects, PM2.5 emission and its effects, organic aerosol sources and risk of HAP in urban, rural, developing, and developed country between the timeline of past 5 years. HAP is caused mainly by cooking and burning organic and inorganic sources, which have substantial health risks and negatively affect human lives’ social and economic value. The following study aims to highlight the gaps in the research field that need to be filled to give academics and the healthcare department knowledge of existing trends on HAP.
