Abstract

There is a significant regional difference of NOX emission in China; the total emission amount of economic developed areas is larger while the economic developing regions are relative smaller. From the point of view of the changes, the total emission declining rate of developed areas is larger, which means that these areas still have emission reduction potentials, while the developing regions make pressures to China's NOX emission reduction on the contrary. In the various factors affecting NOX emission change, the energy conversion factor and energy efficiency factor are emission reduction factors in vast majority regions, and economic scale factor is emission increasing factor. Therefore, it is necessary to take immediate practical and strong corresponding measures, and should take corresponding countermeasures according to the conditions of different regions; energy structure converting and energy efficiency improving should still be as two important means for NOX total emission reduction in the future, and it also needs to reduce the effects of economic scale factor through the transformation of industrial structure, what is more, it also needs people to change ways of life.
