A Capacity Expansion Planning Method for A Regional Water Supply System (Illinois)

Abstract

dc:description

The goal of this study is to develop an optimization model for designing an economical regional water supply system which consists of water production and water transmission facilities. Water demands are assumed to be increasing over a planning horizon and to be satisfied from several potential supply sources. In this study, a method has been developed to determine a water supply system layout and to size water production and transmission facilities in the system. The method is a heuristic optimization technique which consists of two mathematical models--the Phase I model and the Phase II model--for joint use.
