Abstract: By adopting Chinese official statistics and interprovincial regression model, as well as using the urbanization,sewage treatment investment and industrial enterprises technological innovation as 3 main controlled variables,the 2 major influence factors of the sewage emission in the east,middle and west regions of China from 2005 to 2015:population size and industrial economic growth,were regressed. The results showed that,from the nationwide scope,population size was always one of major contributors for the amount of water pollution,and the positive association between industrial economic development and water pollution could be relieved by industrial enterprises technological innovation to a certain extent. And from a regional scope,the impact of population size or industrial economic growth on water pollution had a large regional difference. Finally,based on the requirement of the sustainable development strategy,the suggestions for prevention and control of water pollution were put forward.

Key words: population size, industrial economy, water pollution, random effect model, sustainable development
