近代太原城市用水研究(1912—1949年)

A Study on Urban Water Utilization and Management in Modern Taiyuan(1912—1949)

利用档案资料、水利志、报纸等相关资料,通过对近代太原城市水资源的利用及管理情况的研究,发现近代太原城市居民长期以土井为主要水源,直至机井、水塔、自来水厂的相继出现,部分满足了市民对水量、水质及水价的要求,但用水设施建设因战争、政府重视不够等因素影响,导致1949年前太原城市用水事业未有大范围的改变,更未真正将自来水技术惠及全体市民。

Through archives,water conservancy records,newspapers,and other relevant sources,this paper conducts a study on the utilization and management of urban water in modern Taiyuan.It’s found that in modern times,the residents of Taiyuan have long taken earth Wells as the main water source until the successive emergence of mechanical Wells,water towers,and waterworks,which partly met the requirements of citizens for water quantity,quality,and price.However,as a result of negative impacts on construction of water facilities,such as wars and lack of government attention,the urban water industry in Taiyuan didn’t have significant changes,nor had the benefits of tap water technology truly reached all citizens until 1949.
