Article Synopsis
- - Domestic and industrial water uses are the major components of urban water consumption, but traditional demand models often overestimate actual needs due to reliance on arbitrary quotas and outdated statistics.
- - A study developed new demand models based on Engel's Coefficient for domestic use and the Hoffmann Index for industrial use, showing strong correlations with actual water consumption trends in Beijing and Jinan.
- - Predictions for 2020 indicate that total water consumption will increase significantly, with Jinan expected to see a 67.6% rise and Beijing a 33.0% increase compared to 2007 levels.
