Multiple‐Factor Influence on Air Quality of Road Motor Vehicles Tail Number Limit in Administrative Area of Beijing, China

Abstract EN

From December 2, 2013, to October 31, 2019 (total 2160 days), Beijing official air quality data was used as the research object.

The article analyzes the end of days 4 and 9 and the end of the nonrestricted 4 and 9 days, working and nonworking days, restricted and nonrestricted working days, long holidays (Spring Festival and National Day), and nonlong holidays (short holidays other than the Spring Festival and National Day and working days) of AQI, PM2.5, PM10, SO2, CO, NO2, and O3.

According to the statistical analysis of the data, the air quality of the 4 and 9 limit is worse than that of the non-4 and 9 limit.

Motor vehicles restricted in traffic had an objective effect on air AQI, PM2.5, PM10, CO, and NO2, whereas there was almost no difference in O3.

Some peak values of AQI, PM2.5, PM10, SO2, CO, and NO2 on nonrestricted working days were significantly higher than those on restricted working days.

At the same time, there was a peak time of the impact of motor vehicles on AQI, PM2.5, PM10, SO2, CO, and NO2 in Beijing.

This time should be between 3 and 5 days, or 72 and 120 hours.
