本文概述了我国日益凸显的臭氧（O₃）污染现状，并探讨了O₃污染的控制策略。O₃是挥发性有机物（VOCs）与氮氧化物（NO_x）经复杂的光化学反应产生的二次产物。考虑到前体物（即VOCs和NO_x）的来源以及相应控制技术的成熟度，大幅消减NO_x对控制O₃污染更具可行性，尽管不可否认，以最佳减排比例协同控制NO_x和VOCs是最有效的措施。此外，在人造表面涂覆催化材料的O3直接分解技术也是一种更具前景的O₃污染控制策略，该技术无需外加能耗即可去除O₃，为传统的排放控制策略提供了新路径。

This work outlines the current status of ozone (O₃) pollution in China, which has become increasingly prominent in recent years, and control strategies that can be used to address this issue. O₃ is a secondary product from the complex photochemical reactions of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) coupled with the nitrogen oxide (NO_x) cycle. Considering the sources of precursors (i.e., VOCs and NO_x) and the maturity of corresponding control technologies, substantially reducing NO_x is a more feasible strategy for reducing O₃ concentrations than focusing on VOCs, although it is undeniable that implementing coordinated control of NO_x and VOCs in an optimal reduction ratio based on the specific conditions of different regions is the most effective strategy for controlling O₃ pollution. Additionally, direct O₃-decomposition technologies using catalytic materials coated on artificial surfaces offer a promising solution: These technologies can remove O₃ without additional energy consumption, providing a practical complement to traditional emission-control strategies.
