Abstract:Spatio-temporal characteristics and correlation effects of CO2 emissions and PM2.5 and O3 pollution concentrations in Chinese provinces from 2015 to 2019 were firstly analyzed. Then, the emission factor method was used to compile the emission inventories of CO2, PM2.5 and O3 precursors in each province from 2011 to 2019, and combined the STIRPAT model the synergistic effects of CO2, PM2.5 and O3 precursors were predicted under different scenarios. Moreover, a rating system was established to identify key control areas with their synergistic effects analyzed by sectors, and finally the targeted synergistic control measures were proposed. The results showed that there was no correlation between CO2 emission reduction and PM2.5 concentration reduction in 53% of the provinces, and that between CO2 emission reduction and O3 concentration reduction in 87% of the provinces. There was a synergistic effect between CO2 and PM2.5 in China from 2012 to 2014, while no synergistic effect from 2015 to 2019. Further, there was a synergistic effect between CO2 and O3 precursors in China in the most years, but there was no general synergistic effect between pollution reduction and carbon reduction. Based on the analysis of the obtained coefficient of synergy effect, more provinces achieved the synergistic effect in the low carbon scenario than that in the baseline scenario. Further, according to the developed rating system, the studied provinces were divided into four levels of control areas. The sectors in the "Class I Control Area" should give priority to the synergistic emission reduction of CO2 and PM2.5, while that in the "Class II Control Area" the synergistic emission reduction of CO2 and O3. It was recommended that each sector should take into account the low-carbon scenario, and the "I and II Control Area" should reasonably regulate the population and urbanization rate, and optimize the energy structure, etc.
