The final, formatted version of the article will be published soon.

    The treatment or resource utilization of high salinity printing and dyeing wastewater have received tremendous attention in recent decades due to its negative impacts on the surrounding environment. To improve the research direction for better scientific contribution, the published papers in the online version of the Science Citation Index Expanded database from 1991 to 2022 with a total of 1090 articles or reviews were analyzed by using VOSviewer, Python, origin 2023 and statistical software R. The results showed that the amount of the published papers in this field increased exponentially in the past 17 years. Journal of Membrane Science, Desalination, Chemical Engineering Journal and Journal of Hazardous Materials are the most important sources for publishing relevant researches. Van Der Bruggen B was the most productive author. KatholiekeUniversity Leuven and Donghua University were the main research institutions. Moreover, there were additional needs to enhance collaboration relationships between different authors, institutions and countries. At present, researchers focus on methods that are closer to "real" field or ground conditions. "photocatalysis", "loose nanofiltration membranes" and "dye/salt separation" have become the frontier. The present study figures out the trends of this field through visualization of the current landscape, and facilitates the future collaborative research.

    Keywords: desalination, Biodegradation, Decolorization, photocatalysis, Dye/salt separation, Loose nanofiltration membranes
