Abstract: | "Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are a kind of irritating, carcinogenic, deforming, mutagenic, flammable and explosive organic compounds which are harmful to human and ecosystem health. In terms of industrial stationary sources, vehicle exhaust sources and domestic emission sources, this paper analyzed the major characteristics of VOCs emissions. The spatial distribution of industrial VOCs emission in China's typical areas were figured out based on the statistic data issued in 2010. The results showed that the emission quantity in eastern areas was higher than that in middle and western areas, not only by total amount but also by unit area, while there was a significant difference among these areas in terms of industrial emission sources. Therefore, the current VOCs governance, including regulations, standards, and existing problems were discussed, and then based on the experiences from the developed countries and regions, the suggestions were proposed to enhance the VOCs management in China" |
