ABSTRACT

This paper is based on economic development data of per capita GDP and industrial composition of Henan Province from 1991 to 2021, as well as industrial pollution data of industrial wastewater discharge, industrial waste gas discharge and industrial solid waste production. SPSS was used to analyze the relationship between industrial pollution and economic development in Henan Province, and the environmental Kuznets curve (EKC) relationship between them was analyzed. The main conclusions were as follows:① Since 1991 to 2021, the per capita GDP of Henan Province has an obvious increasing trend, and the industrial structure has been gradually transformed to "three, two, one", but mainly to develop the secondary industry;② The industrial pollution index of Henan Province showed a trend of decreasing first and then increasing. The industrial pollution standard value reached a peak in 2014, and then the industrial pollution index showed a trend of decreasing.③ In the past 30 years, the fitting curve of industrial pollution and economic development in Henan Province generally presents an inverted "U" shape. At present, it is at the right end of the inflection point. The economic growth index and industrial pollution index of Henan Province have entered the stage of coordinated development as a whole.
