Abstract | A stochastic linear programming model has been developed for a regional water quality management with the objective of minimizing the operating cost. All stochastic parameters and variables are expressed with certain probability density functions based on the past data. Concept of system analysis and digital computer simulation are used to solve the model. The model is run for different water quality management strategies and the results of this model are compared with the results of model developed by LOHANI and THANH (1978) which incorporates stream flow as the only stochastic variable. Finally it was further possible to show that this model is more realistic and provides more economical strategies. |
