Abstract
This paper utilizes the China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) as a data source, employing the search criteria ‘Subject=Air Pollution Management or Title=Air Pollution Management’. A total of 259 periodical papers were retrieved and analyzed using CiteSpace, a bibliometric analysis software. A systematic analysis of the basic characteristics of the retrieved literature is conducted, covering aspects such as general overview, authors, institutions, and frequently cited works. The current research hotspots are visualized through keyword co-occurrence, keyword clustering, and keyword time-trend analysis. It is found through research that air pollution prevention and control has received sustained attention in recent years, forming a rich theoretical foundation. From a management perspective, it has become a key issue of concern in the academic community, forming three distinct research stages. However, the academic cooperation of air pollution prevention and control research is slightly insufficient, and the theoretical research on regional joint prevention and control needs to be deepened, and the research methods and theoretical models for air pollution prevention and control need to be standardized.
