Abstract: Air pollution is a complex phenomenon caused by humans causing certain substances to enter the atmosphere during production activities or natural processes. Its formation and evolution have long-term sustainability, macroscopicity, and integrity. The concentration of each pollutant is high or low, and it will last for a period of time. So, what are the macro and overall characteristics of the self-evolution of the concentration of each pollutant? This article will use the detrended fluctuation analysis (DFA) method to analyze the long-term sustainability of each pollutant concentration sequence at nine sites. At the same time, in order to describe the nonlinear characteristics of each pollutant concentration sequence in more detail, use the multifractal detrended fluctuation analysis (MF-DFA) method to analyze the internal local structure. The MF-DFA method can describe the unique mode of the pollution process during the haze period, record the detailed information of the pollutants on different time scales during the haze period, provide probability estimates for the pollutant concentration, and display the pollutant concentration. The MF-DFA method can also describe the characteristics of time series in a more detailed, precise, and comprehensive manner and quantitatively describe the long-term sustainability of time series evolution. The experimental analysis results of the MF-DFA method on the concentration of each pollutant at nine monitoring points during the haze period have achieved extraordinary results.
