| At present,China’s economy is in from rapid growth to quality development,with the development of economy,people also increasingly strong demand for a better life,China’s pollution,air pollution,in particular,has received the widespread attention of the society,the environment problem also received the government attaches great importance to,since the eighteenth big,the Chinese government attaches great importance to the construction of ecological civilization,The 14th Five-Year Plan has included ecological progress as a new goal of economic and social development.However,in recent years,China has faced increasing international economic and political uncertainties,and the sudden outbreak of the epidemic has seriously affected people’s livelihood.The downward pressure on the domestic economy has been great,and high-quality economic development requires new impetus.As a rising industrial production technology in recent years,industrial robots are regarded as a new driving force to realize industrial transformation and upgrading and achieve high-quality economic development.Through the study of the internal relationship between the use of industrial robots and urban air pollution in China,not only can the environmental effect of the use of industrial robots be developed theoretically,but also can promote the use of industrial robots,promote the industrial intelligent development strategy and win the battle of pollution prevention and control to provide experience.Based on the matching of urban industrial robot usage data from 2006 to 2016 with relevant urban indicators and PM2.5 concentration data in China,multiple empirical analysis methods,including bidirectional fixed effects model,two-stage least square method,intermediary effects model and spatial econometric model,were used to propose research hypotheses.To examine the impact of industrial robots on urban air pollution in China.The results show that:(1)The use of urban industrial robots has a significant negative impact on PM2.5 in Chinese cities.(2)The pollution reduction effect of industrial robot use is more obvious in cities with higher financial development level,cities with lower financial support,cities with higher information infrastructure construction level and smart city pilot cities.(3)points of geographical location,topography and climate,geographical conditions,industrial robots use of reducing the effect on the geographic location features presents obvious heterogeneity,higher latitudes in the northern city of industrial robot using reducing effect more weak,geographical conditions such as topography and climate on industrial robot plays an important role in regulating use of reducing the effect,Among them,the greater the air flow coefficient,terrain relief,relative humidity,rainfall and temperature,the more the pollution reduction effect of industrial robots can be enhanced.(4)from the impact mechanism,based on the upgrading of industrial structure and the mechanism of promoting technology level,the study found the industrial robot used by encouraging urban transformation and upgrading of industrial structure and improve the technical level two channels of the city and to reduce the proportion of high pollution industry,environmental protection technical level of the pollution treatment,energy efficiency will be improved,also reduce the emissions of pollutants in the production process,The result is a reduction in urban PM2.5.(5)through the expansion of spatial spillover effects analysis also found that the city’s industrial robot using effect,reducing the pollution of nearby city and nearby cities industrial robot also has the effect of lowering PM2.5 in the city,at the same time,the city of PM2.5 geographic correlation industrial robots using underestimated,reducing the pollution effect through the zone spreading across the land,Air pollution control will be more effective than expected. |
