Computers & Chemical Engineering (CCE) is one of the premier international journals in the field of chemical engineering. CCE published its first issue in 1977 and completed forty years in 2016. More than four decades of continuous and successful journey influenced us to celebrate its contribution through a comprehensive bibliometric study. Using the Web of Science Core Collection database we depict trends of the journal in terms of papers, topics, authors, institutions, and countries. Networks visualization of co-citation of journals and authors, bibliographic coupling institutions and countries, and co-occurrence of author keywords are prepared using the visualization of similarities (VOS) viewer software. The present analysis explores publication and citation patterns of the journal. Professor Ignacio E. Grossmann, Carnegie Mellon University, and USA respectively appear as the most productive and influential author, institution, and country in CCE publications. Optimization based research topics received most attention in CCE publications.

计算机与化学工程（CCE）是化学工程领域的主要国际期刊之一。CCE于1977年出版了第一期，并于2016年完成了40年。连续40多年的成功历程影响了我们通过全面的文献计量研究来庆祝其贡献。使用Web of Science核心收藏数据库，我们可以按照论文，主题，作者，机构和国家来描述期刊的发展趋势。使用相似性可视化（VOS）查看器软件，可以对期刊和作者，书目耦合机构和国家的共同引文以及作者关键字的同时出现进行网络可视化。本分析探讨了该期刊的出版和引文模式。Ignacio E. Grossmann教授，卡内基梅隆大学和美国分别是CCE出版物中最具生产力和影响力的作者，机构和国家。基于优化的研究主题在CCE出版物中受到了最多的关注。
