Efficiency and Equity Balanced Water Pollutant Emission Aggregate Allocation for Jiangsu Province
Regional total water pollutant allocation is the key to inter-regional equitable coordination and efficient economic development.In order to balance efficiency and equity,the optimal efficiency solution with the smallest distance from the ideal equity solution s taken as the final solution,thus the total emissions allocation model s constructed and the total COD allocation scheme s calculated for each prefecture-level city for the"14th Five-Year Plan".Results show that:(1)Yancheng and Xuzhou,which halarger historical COD emissions,allocated 14.2%and 12.1%of Jiangsu Province's emissions,which manifest historical and developmental equity,and they b18.5%and 10.8%of the province's emissions reduction quota,evidencing the principle of equity of"whoever pollutes governs";(2)Wuxi and Changzhou,higher economical level and unit emission output,in line with the requirement of efficiency prioritization,as the final scheme of emission allocation s larger than the equity scheme.Based on this,Jiangsu Province prefecture-level cities divided into four categories based on COD emission reduction rate and per capita GDP,so as to separately explore and discuss the path of sustainable development.
