Abstract

Xi’an, also known as Chang’an in ancient times, is the most famous historical and cultural city in China. Established as the capital city about 1200 years ago, Xi’an is also the eastern terminal of the Silk Road. Today, it is the biggest and principal city of Northwestern China, with a population over 8 million. Air pollution has always been a serious problem in Xi’an. The air quality in Xi’an is often ranked among the top 10 worst cities in China. The heavy air pollution could cause a great impact on its residents’ health and life quality. An effective air pollution control is a pressing demand and requirement for the city.
