Constructed wetlands, an eco-friendly and green wastewater treatment technology has been proven to be an effective alternative for conventional wastewater treatment technologies. The bibliometric analysis was conducted in the field of constructed wetlands to investigate its progress and future research trends during the years 1998–2017 based on the Science Citation Index Expanded (SCI-Expanded) of Web of Science (WOS). Co-word analysis along with top countries and institutes were determined. The analysis of author keywords indicates that the significant hotspots of constructed wetlands include “nutrients” “aquatic plants” “removal,” etc., based on centrality. The USA is the country that has contributed the most in the field of constructed wetlands followed by China. Chinese Academy of Sciences is the topmost institute which has a maximum number of publications. Scientists and researches can also explore the utility of constructed wetlands in river water treatment, heavy metal extraction from various wastewaters, petroleum refinery wastes, fish pond discharges, and pre-treated industrial wastewaters, in future. The results provide a comprehensive understanding of constructed wetlands research and help readers to establish future research directions in the field of environment.
