Summary

A finite element model for the water pollution control of a nearly closed water area is described. The principal constraints are to attain the chemical oxygen demand (COD) standards. The finite element method is used for the derivation of linear constraints of the constrained optimization problem. The objective function is employed the total value of removal COD concentration discharging into the water. This model is applied to Tokyo Bay which is a nearly closed water area in Japan.
