Regional Planning of Wastewater Reuse for Irrigation and River Rehabilitation
针对以色列某区域,建立了一个包含城市和三个潜在废水用户的单年规划模型,优化作物组合及水土资源分配,并利用可转移效用博弈理论分配合作收益,支持决策者实现经济与环境双赢。
Abstract Subject to a few agri‐environmental restrictions, municipal wastewater can be utilised for agricultural irrigation and river rehabilitation. This paper develops a single‐year Planning Model for a region in Israel which consists of a city and three potential wastewater consumers. The model incorporates, in one endogenous system, the economic, physical and biological relationships in the water–soil–plant–environment system and its objective is to maximise the regional social welfare. The model determines the optimal crop mix and the optimal allocation of the limited water and land resources among all potential users. Then, different allocation approaches from the concept of transferable utility games are applied to determine a reasonable and fair allocation of the additional net benefits which will be acceptable to all the players. The results support the collaboration among the economic entities and indicate economic and environmental advantages which can serve the decision‐makers.
