Abstract

Coal, which plays a critical role in sustaining society development in Jing-Jin-Ji region (China), has become a controversial issue and has aroused extensive attention due to its impications with both climate change and human health. Based on the model of inter-regional transportation in Jing-Jin-Ji, we propose a Regional Coal Industry Chain Balance Table to define the full coal chain energy flows analysis framework. Besides, process chain analysis and input-output analysis are used for embodied energy accounting as well as for environmental impact assessment of 24 kinds of pollutants in the region.
