Dear colleagues,

You are cordially invited to the SCL seminar of the Center for the Study 
of Complex Systems, which will be held on Tuesday, 9 July 2019 at 16:00 
in the library reading room “Dr. Dragan Popović" of the Institute of 
Physics Belgrade.

We will first hear a short presentation of the Beijing Center of Science 
and Technology. After this short presentation, Prof. Tao Yue (Research 
Department of Air Pollution Control of Beijing Municipal Institute of 
Labor Protection, Beijing Academy of Science and Technology) will give a 
talk entitled

“Air Pollution Control in Beijing, China”

Abstract of the talk:

As the capital of China and an international metropolis, Beijing has 
experienced rapid development in the past two decades. However, the 
great economic prosperity and urban growth have also resulted in the 
deterioration of the city’s environment, especially air quality. Decades 
of hard work and mounting investments by the municipal government had 
paid off with a dramatic reduction in air pollution. From 2013 to 2018, 
the annual average concentrations of SO2, NO2, PM2.5 and PM10 fell by 
77.36%, 25.00%, 43.02%, and 27.84% respectively. The annual average 
PM2.5 concentrations in Beijing fell from 89.5 to 51 μg/m3. The PM2.5 
source apportionment results in 2013 and 2017 showed that regional 
transport and local emissions aggravated Beijing’s air pollution and 
coal combustion, motor vehicles and dust were the three main local 
emission sources. A comprehensive and effective air quality management 
system of Beijing has gradually taken shape, including complete laws and 
enforcement, systematic planning, powerful local standards, strong 
monitoring capacity and high public environmental awareness. Beijing 
government took corresponding measures targeting specific air pollution 
sources. Beijing’s experience and lessons in the development and 
implementation of air pollution control policies and programs have long 
been a model for many Chinese cities.


Best regards,
