The Action Plan for Continuous Improvement of Air Quality in Guangdong Province (Draft for Comments) (hereinafter referred to as the "Action Plan") was recently published on the website of the Department of Ecology and Environment of Guangdong Province. The "Action Plan" focuses on improving air quality and solving the outstanding atmospheric environmental problems around the people, and puts forward the goal of "PM" in the province by 20252.5The average annual concentration is controlled below 22 micrograms/cubic meter, and heavy pollution weather is basically eliminated.
The "Action Plan" makes it clear that by 2025, the province's PM2.5The annual average concentration is controlled below 22 micrograms/cubic meter, and heavy pollution weather is basically eliminated; The total emissions of major air pollutants continued to decline, and the NOx and VOCs emission reduction targets issued by the state were completed. The annual average value of nitrogen dioxide in Guangzhou and Foshan is controlled below 30 micrograms/cubic meter, and the listing level at other prefectures is controlled below 25 micrograms/cubic meter.
The first action is to "optimize the industrial structure and implement the green and low-carbon transformation of the industry". The main work is carried out in four aspects, one is to clarify the total substitution and energy consumption requirements of construction projects, and strictly admit new projects; the second is to implement measures such as the industrial structure adjustment guidance catalogue to upgrade and transform the existing production capacity; the third is to rectify and upgrade gas-related industrial clusters, and make overall plans for the construction of "green island" projects; Fourth, promote the healthy development of green environmental protection industry.
The second action is to "optimize the energy structure and implement clean, low-carbon and efficient energy development actions". It will mainly carry out three aspects of work, focusing on the development and use of clean and low-carbon energy, strict and reasonable control of coal consumption, and reduction of industrial coal consumption.
The third action is to "optimize the transportation structure and implement the construction of a green and low-carbon transportation system". The main work is carried out in five aspects, one is to optimize and adjust the passenger and freight structure, and promote the transfer of road transport to railways and waterways; The second is to promote the use of clean and low-carbon transportation and operation tools, develop zero-emission freight fleets, and explore and promote "zero carbon emissions" in ports and terminals; the third is to organize and carry out special rectification work in the refined oil industry to fully guarantee the quality of oil products; Fourth, we will focus on diesel vehicles and strictly control motor vehicle emissions; Fifth, strengthen the comprehensive management of non-road mobile machinery and basically eliminate the phenomenon of "black smoke".
The fourth action is to "strengthen the emission reduction of multiple pollutants and implement actions to improve quality and efficiency and reduce emission intensity". There are four main aspects of work, one is to carry out the ultra-low emission transformation of the steel and cement industries in an orderly manner; the second is to promote the upgrading and transformation of industrial boilers and furnaces; the third is to fully implement the source substitution of raw and auxiliary materials with low VOCs content; Fourth, the implementation of in-depth treatment of key areas related to VOCs, the implementation of special rectification of volatile organic liquid storage tanks, hierarchical control of VOCs-related enterprises, and investigation and rectification of inefficient and failed VOCs treatment facilities.
The fifth action is to "strengthen the prevention and control of non-point source pollution and implement refined comprehensive treatment actions". It is mainly to strengthen the management of dust pollution, comprehensive utilization of straw and ban on burning, and strengthen the control of catering fumes and odors.
The "Action Plan" proposes to strictly manage the layout of catering service units near residential buildings, and the catering service projects expressly prohibited by law shall not be registered as market entities. At the local level, the local level shall delineate the area where open-air barbecue is prohibited and issue an announcement, and the catering service units that produce oil fumes shall adopt high-efficiency oil fume purification facilities, and the buildings to be opened for catering services shall design and construct special flues, and implement third-party operation and maintenance management and operation status monitoring of treatment facilities in Guangzhou, Shenzhen and other qualified areas. Strengthen investigation and rectification of the problem of disturbing the people with strong odors and pews that are reflected by the masses, and industrial parks and key enterprises with concentrated complaints should install and operate online monitoring systems. Strengthen the linkage of departments, and solve the problem of oil smoke and foul odor disturbing the people in accordance with local conditions.
The sixth action is to "strengthen the prevention of heavy and light, and implement joint prevention and control actions for air pollution during key periods". There are three main aspects of work, one is to strengthen the ability of atmospheric environment monitoring and early warning. The second is to improve the regional joint prevention and control mechanism and deepen the cooperation in air pollution prevention and control in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area. The third is to optimize pollution response mechanisms and measures, and strengthen the prevention and control of polluted weather. In terms of "improving the system of laws and regulations and standards, and improving the economic policies for air pollution control", it is proposed to promote the formulation and revision of relevant laws and regulations, and improve policy incentives such as rewards and subsidies, prices, and financial guarantees.
