     This direction focuses on the national and local major strategic needs, aims at the current status and development trend of atmospheric environmental quality in key urban agglomerations in China, faces the air pollution issues of regions and industries, and sticks to focalize scientific frontiers. We perform the systematic theoretical research and technological development on pollution source emissions, control theory, abatement technology, atmospheric environmental management and decision-making in the field of atmospheric environment and pollution control. It's condensed and formed the research directions of air pollution source identification, industrial waste gas purification mechanism and technology, environmental catalytic principle and all-solid new materials, as well as the mechanism and method of formation and control for pollutants such as SOx, NOx, respirable particles and heavy metals. Our research work follows the main line of theoretical innovation-technical breakthrough-practical application. Directing at the characteristics of complex and variable atmospheric pollution evolution, the research work follows the main line of theoretical innovation, technological breakthrough and practical application, microscopic nano-analysis identification technology is used as means to analyze the inevitable connection of various phases thoroughly, clarify the affecting pattern, and resolve the complex gas phase pollution, making it simplification and materialization, and further realizing the high efficiency, low energy consumption and long-term operation of the air pollution treatment technology in the process of practical application. In this direction, there are currently 5 scientific researchers, more than 80 SCI papers, 23 invention patents, and 1 provincial and ministerial award.
