Study on the Optimal Allocation of Water Resources Systems and the Comprehensive Utilization of Water Resources in Arid-Semiarid Multiple Mining Areas

More about the book

Arid-semiarid regions face significant conflicts over water resource utilization, mining, and environmental protection. Achieving sustainable development in these areas necessitates coordinated efforts among economic, social, and environmental factors. Through systematic hydrogeological investigations, laboratory and in-situ tests, and innovative methodologies, this research examines water resource distribution—covering surface water, groundwater, mine water, and domestic water in mining contexts. It provides a comprehensive analysis of current water use trends in domestic supply, agriculture, and industry, focusing on the Shen-Dong Coal Mine area, a major coal production site in China. The study evaluates the development status, utilization trends, and potential for water resource exploitation. By integrating long- and medium-term development strategies, it proposes a scientific allocation scheme for water resources across various hydrological years. Additionally, it outlines a planning model for water resource development and a technical framework for comprehensive utilization, aimed at optimizing allocation, rational exploitation, and effective management of water resources. This dissertation stands out for its robust data, sound scientific analysis, and the global relevance of its findings.
