Regional Distribution Changes of Pollution-Intensive Industries in China
2012
In the context of increasingly stringent environmental constraints and gradually fast industrial restructuring,it is extremely necessary to study pollution-intensive industries and its regional distribution in China.This paper firstly constructed a method to measure the intensity of industrial pollution to determine the three major water and air pollution-intensive industries among China,s industrial sectors.And then the regional distribution of pollution-intensive industries was further analyzed.The results show that during the period of 1997-2007,the eastern region was always the major area where water and air pollution-intensive industries distributed.Among those pollution-intensive industries,power industry and agro-food processing industry had appeared to shift to the central and western regions since 2001.Paper and paper products industry,non-metallic mineral products industry began to shift to the central region in the 2006.While chemicals and chemical products,manufacturing industry,ferrous metal smelting and rolling processing industry did not yet demonstrate a clear trend of shifting from eastern to the central and western regions.
