A mixed integer linear programming (MILP) model for optimal design of water network
2011 Fourth International Conference on Modeling, Simulation and Applied Optimization, 2011This work presents the development of a new systematic technique to target fresh water consumption and wastewater generation for systems involving multiple contaminants when all options of water minimization including source elimination, reduction, reuse/recycle, outsourcing and regeneration are considered simultaneously.

This paper addresses the problem of developing an optimization structure to aid the operational decision-making in a real-world pipeline scenario. The pipeline connects an inland refinery to a harbor, conveying different types of products (gasoline, diesel, kerosene, alcohol, liquefied petroleum gas, jet fuel, etc).

A limestone quarry is the major source for supplying raw materials for cement manufacturing operations. Depending upon the available reserves, a quarry is divided into thousands of mineable blocks. Hence, raw materials inventory is identified in terms of a block model projecting the quantity and quality of critical chemical constituents desired in the

Optimizing supply chain networks using mixed integer linear programming (MILP)
Theoretical and Natural ScienceMixed Integer Linear Programming (MILP) has emerged as a powerful tool for optimizing complex supply chain networks. This paper explores the theoretical foundations of MILP, including the integration of integer variables and advanced solution techniques such as branch-and-bound and branch-and-cut algorithms.

Minimum fresh water consumption and wastewater generation in a facility can be achieved when all options for water minimization including source elimination, reduction, reuse/recycle, outsourcing, and regeneration have been considered. This work presents the development of a new generic mixed integer linear programming (MILP) model to holistically ...

Abstract A HPS (hybrid power system) includes various sources of RE (renewable electricity) such as wind, solar, and biomass, and is supplemented by the public grid should the total RE supply is deficit to total demand. Given the operational capability of the total RE supply and the time-dependent demand rate from various appliances, and also given ...

Abstract This study focuses on the optimal design of district-scale DER (distributed energy resource) systems in which energy is produced outside energy-consuming buildings and sent to the buildings through the energy distribution networks. A MILP (mixed integer linear programming) model is constructed. The model can achieve simultaneous optimization

Abstract In this paper an optimal planning method is proposed for sizing a cogeneration plant to be installed within a public/commercial micro-grid. The optimization tool is based on a mixed integer linear programming model which uses a set of experimental input data in terms of both thermal and electric power consumption for determining the annual ...
