Abstract：
PVC is widely used in packaging, electrical insulation, and medical devices due to its versatility owing to its resistance, incombustible and barrier properties as well as affordable cost. In the present study, bibliometric and co-occurrence analyses are proposed to identify trends, gaps, future directions, and challenges regarding process system engineering (PSE) applied to the production process of PVC using VOSviewer as a tool for analyzing the data obtained from SCOPUS. A mapping of different topics alluding to simulation of PVC production was provided to gain a better insight into the development of the topic and its progression. The findings indicate that the literature on this topic falls into five different clusters: modeling and simulation of PVC production, process control and optimization, and optimization strategies of the process. From a co-occurrence study we identified that mathematics and statistics applied to polymer chemistry, separation phenomena, and polymer production are the main areas of interest for further research. The trends suggest that Monte Carlo and numerical simulation can contribute to a deeper understanding of PVC\'s properties and behavior. In addition, the focus on plastics and microplastics reflects concerns about the environmental impact. A bibliometric study evidenced that PSE provides the tools for improvement in PVC production processes by employing advanced process engineering techniques. Modelling and new algorithms for simulation methods of continuous polymerization processes are important to enhance accuracy and efficiency across various applications. The study also proposes a research agenda for future researchers working in the field of the use of PSE applied to the PVC production process.
摘要：
PVC广泛用于包装，电绝缘,和医疗设备由于其多功能性，由于其阻力，不燃和阻隔性能以及负担得起的成本。在本研究中,提出了文献计量和共现分析来识别趋势，间隙,未来的方向,以及使用VOSviewer作为分析从SCOPUS获得的数据的工具，将工艺系统工程（PSE）应用于PVC生产过程的挑战。提供了暗示PVC生产模拟的不同主题的映射，以更好地了解该主题的发展及其进展。研究结果表明，关于这一主题的文献分为五个不同的集群：PVC生产的建模和模拟，过程控制和优化，以及流程的优化策略。从一项共现研究中，我们发现数学和统计学应用于聚合物化学，分离现象,和聚合物生产是进一步研究的主要兴趣领域。这些趋势表明，蒙特卡罗和数值模拟可以有助于更深入地了解PVC的性能和行为。此外,对塑料和微塑料的关注反映了对环境影响的担忧。一项文献计量研究证明，PSE通过采用先进的工艺工程技术为改进PVC生产工艺提供了工具。用于连续聚合过程的模拟方法的建模和新算法对于提高各种应用的准确性和效率是重要的。该研究还为在PVC生产过程中使用PSE的未来研究人员提出了研究议程。
