ab: Summary: Water ecological-economic system (WEES) is a coupling system of
    traditional water resource system (WS) and eco-environment, social
    economy system. Water efficiency is an important index and
    comprehensively reflects the economic development phases, industrial
    structure, water resources condition, facilities and equipments of
    water using, management level and technology advancement of water
    resource. The traditional indices of water efficiency are water use per
    unit production value, irrigation water use per unit area and domestic
    water daily used by every man. The different dimensions of the indices
    restrict the intercomparison of different water use departments. On the
    basis of Odum’s well-known concept of emergy as a unified measure for
    environmental resources, human or animal labors and industrial
    products, this paper study the emergy fluxes of Zhengzhou water
    ecological-economic system and put forward a series emergy indices of
    water efficiency. The same dimension of emergy indices provides great
    convenience to the intercomparison of different water use departments.
