Shortages in water resources and the fragile ecosystem by coal-mine water affect\nthe Yulin coal-mine base in northwest China, so taking coal-mine water\ninto account is an important issue for the sustainable management of water\nresources. This paper aims to explore how the Yulin coal-mine base can improve\nits conjunctive utilization of water resources. Integrated utilization is\nproposed by establishing a multi-objective, multi-water-source, optimal-\nallocation model; setting up an integrated information platform; and\ngiving very useful measures and policy suggestions to the local government.\nFinally, this research can also serve as an example of integrated water utilization\nfor other energy bases.
