Abstract

In recent years, with the rapid development of China's economy, pollutant emissions have gradually increased and atmospheric environmental quality is declining [1].Among them, the regional compound air pollution, which is mainly polluted by ozone and fine particles (PM 2.5 ), is especially significant [2-3].PM 2.5 not only reduces visibility, but also serves as a carrier of heavy metal elements, organic matter, viruses and bacteria and other toxins that can invade the human respiratory and circulatory systems, endangering human health [4].Researches have confirmed that the main sources of PM 2.5 in China are the combustion of coal and
