TL;DR: The measure-by-measure evaluation indicated that strengthening industrial emission standards, upgrades on industrial boilers, phasing out outdated industrial capacities, and promoting clean fuels in the residential sector were major effective measures in reducing PM2.5 pollution and health burdens in China.

TL;DR: In this paper, the uncertainties of Chinese emissions of anthropogenic SO2, NOx, and particulate matter (PM) of different size classes and carbonaceous species are comprehensively quantified, for the first time, using Monte Carlo simulation.

TL;DR: In this article, an inventory of anthropogenic primary aerosol emissions in China was developed for 1990-2005 using a technology-based approach, taking into account changes in the technology penetration within industry sectors and improvements in emission controls driven by stricter emission standards, a dynamic methodology was derived and implemented to estimate interannual emission factors.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present an interdisciplinary study to measure the magnitudes of socioeconomic factors in driving primary PM2:5 emission changes in China between 1997-2010, by using a regional emission inventory as input into an environmentally extended input-output framework and applying structural decomposition analysis.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors developed a technology-based methodology using information on the proportion of cement produced from different types of kilns and the emission standards for the Chinese cement industry.
