As a cost-effective, environmentally friendly remediation technology, phytoremediation is defined as the use of green plants to remove pollutants from the environment or render them harmless and has been applied to a variety of contaminated sites throughout the world. There is a prominent phenomenon in which publications about phytoremediation increase each year and involve an increasing number of subject categories. This paper adopts the scientometric analysis method to assess the current state and explore the trends of phytoremediation research based on the bibliographic records retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC). The results of this paper clearly answer the following questions. (1) What are the publishing characteristics of research on the topic of phytoremediation? What are the characteristics of academic collaboration in phytoremediation research? (2) What are the characteristics and development trends of phytoremediation research? (3) What are the hotspots and frontiers of phytoremediation research? Overall, the research method provides a new approach for the assessment of the performance of phytoremediation research. These results may help new researchers quickly integrate into the field of phytoremediation, as they can easily grasp the frontiers of phytoremediation research and obtain more valuable scientific information. This study also provides references for the follow-up research of relevant researchers.
