Abstract: Total air pollutant emission control planning is a major urban environmental management approach. A set of technical schemes have been developed, which are applicable to study the calculational and distributive method of the total quantity control for urban air pollutant emission in China. The permitted total emission equivalent quantity of urban air pollutants and its distribution in urban area, which can be used as regional air pollution control index and can be allocated to each major pollution source as its limit of emission quantity, can be worked out by using linear programming model based on regional grid air pollutants transfer matrix which considers the difference of functional regions and the justice of the permitted emission's distribution. The application of the technical paths and models in Jinan, indicates that it is reasonable and feasible.
