Abstract:Based on the daily air pollutant emissions data from garbage incineration power plants in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai during 2018~2019, difference-in-differences models were employed to quantitatively estimate the impact of Shanghai garbage classification policy on incineration exhaust, and a series of robustness tests were carried out. Although the emission concentration of SO2 reduced by 1.49mg/m3 (by 13.8%) after the implementation of garbage classification, that of NOx increased by 5.96mg/m3 (by 4.1%). ”Holiday effect” existed: one more holiday resulted in a 3.32mg/m3 increase in NOx emission. Classification didn’t not show any significant influence on TSP emission. In addition, the decrease of the variation coefficient of pollutant concentrations indicated that the improvement of the garbage components homogenization reduced the emission fluctuation. Based on the research results, policy suggestions on solid waste management from the aspects of garbage incineration emission standard, technical improvement, and garbage classification formulation were provided.
