Using  2007  as  the  base  year,  an  emission  inventory  of  coal-fired  power  plants  in  China  is  developed  and  the  emissions  of  SPM,  PM10, PM2.5, OC, BC, CO₂, SO₂, NOx and VOCs are estimated to be 2486 k ton, 1740 k ton, 870 k ton, 12.5 k ton, 0.1 k ton, 3888.6 million ton, 9758 k ton, 7413 k ton and 212 k ton  respectively.  The  co-benefits  are  analyzed  and  estimated  for  the  year  2017  with  three  different scenarios including 1) BAU (business as usual), 2) BACT (best available control technology)  and  3)  (BACT+ACT)  (combination  of  best  available  control  technology  and  advanced combustion technology). The co-benefits in this study include air quality benefit (reduction  in  pollutant  emission)  and  climate  benefit  (reduction  in  GHGs,  short-lived climate  forcers  and  ground  level  ozone  potential).  The  results  of  air  quality  benefit  show  that under 2017-BACT scenario the emission reduction of NOx would be by 85% and the emissions  of  other  pollutants  keep  same  as compared  to  2017-BAU  scenario,  while  the  2017-(BACT+ACT) scenario would result in reduction by 4% for SPM, PM10, PM2.5, CO₂, SO₂ and  VOCs,  3%  for  OC  and  BC,  and  88%  for  NOx.  The  climate  co-benefit  analysis  suggests   that   2017-BACT   scenario   has   reduced   global   warming   potential   in   CO₂ equivalent  by  0.3%  for  20-year  horizon  and  by  0%  for  100-year  horizon  and  2017-(BACT+ACT)  scenario  has  reduced  that  by  7%  for  20-year  horizon  and  by  4%  for  100-year  horizon,  compared  to  that  in  2017-BAU. It  also  suggests  that  the  ozone  formation  contribution  of  the  2017-BACT  scenario  is  85%  lower  and  that  of  2017-(BACT+ACT) scenario  is  88%  lower  than  the  2017-BAU  scenario  for both  20-year  and  100-year  time  horizon.   0aAir qualityzChina 0aClimatic changeszChina 0aCoal-fired power plantszChina1 aNguyen, Thi Kim Oanh,eChairperson1 aVisvanathan, C.,eExamination Committee0 aThammarat Koottatep,eExamination Committee2 aADB-Japan Scholarship Program (ADB-JSP),eScholarship donor2 aAsian Institute of Technology.tThesis ;vno.
