By the way of trend map, keyword knowledge map, and co-cited knowledge map, specific visualization analysis and identification of the authors, institutions and regions were concluded. Furthermore, the topics and hotspots of water quality prediction in activated sludge process through the literature-co-citation-based cluster analysis and literature citation burst analysis were also determined, which not only reflected the historical evolution progress to a certain extent, but also provided the direction and insight of the knowledge structure of water quality prediction and activated sludge process for future research. %K Biological Model %K Effluent Quality Prediction %K Activated Sludge Process %K CiteSpace %K Knowledge Map %K Co-Citation Cluster Analysis %U http://www.scirp.org/journal/PaperInformation.aspx?PaperID=133954
