dc.description.abstractThe trade in plastic waste plays a crucial role in the advancement of global waste management and recycling systems. Developed nations export plastic waste to developing countries, reducing environmental harm and creating economic opportunities. This study conducts a bibliometric analysis of 257 articles on plastic waste trade published between 1996 and 2024 in the Web of Science (WoS). The analysis highlights China's 2018 import ban as a key topic, with Chen, W.Q. identified as the most prolific author. Resources, Conservation and Recycling is the leading journal in this field. The study reveals China's unique academic characteristics compared to other countries, with the U.S. as the second most significant contributor. Key author keywords include waste, life cycle assessment, and circular economy. This research fills a gap in literature and aims to be a foundational resource for scholars in the field.
