Environmental pressure arising from economic development and industrial operations may indicate the sustainable development level of industries, and also of importance in promoting industrial sustainable development and environmental pollution prevention and control. This paper uses Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) model and LMDI decomposition and GDP per capita as economic indicator of Hunan province during 2000 to 2018, industrial solid waste, water waste, SO2, fog emission as environmental pollution indicators to analyze the relation between industrial pollution and economic growth, and discusses the driving factors from industrial cleaning technology effect, industrial energy efficiency effect, industrial productive structure effect, economic size effect, and population size effect. An upside-down N-shape exists among industrial water waste, SO2 and GDP per capita in Hunan province, an upside-down U-shape among industrial solid wastes, fog and GDP per capita, both curves passing the inflection points, suggesting a continuously improved environmental pressure. Industrial pollution is limited by industrial cleaning technology effect and industrial energy efficiency effect, but driven by industrial structure effect, economic size effect, and population size effect, of which economic size effect is the leading factor. This paper presents suggestions on reducing industrial pollution and promoting economic growth.
