Upon treatment, the reclaimed streams can be recycled, forwarded to other treatment units, or discharged into the sink unit. - -The mass balances are defined in terms of total flows and contaminants concentration. -Nonconvexities arise from bilinear terms “flows times concentration” in the mixers mass balances and concave investment cost functions of treatment units. - -The instance incorporates two approximations of the concave cost term (piecewise linear and quadratic) to reformulate the GDP model into a bilinear quadratic one. - -The general model description can be summarized as follows: -Min Cost of Treatment Units -s.t. -Physical Constraints: -(a) Mass balance around each splitter -(b) Mass balance around each mixer -(c) Mass balance around each treatment unit -Performance Constraints: -(d) Contaminant composition of the purified stream less or equal than a given limit -for each contaminant. -Logic Constraints: -(e) Treatment units not chosen have their inlet flow set to zero -(f) Every treatment unit chosen must have a minimum flow - -Assumptions: -(i) The performance of the treatment units only depends on the total flow entering the unit and its composition. -(ii) The flow of contaminants leaving the unit is a linear function of the inlet flow of contaminants. - -### Case Study - -The WTN comprises five inlet streams with four contaminants and four treatment units. -The contaminant concentration and flow rate of the feed streams, contaminant recovery rates, minimum flow rate and cost coefficients of the treatment units, and the upper limit on the molar flow of contaminant in the purified stream, are reported in [1]. - -### Solution - -Best known objective value: $ 348,340 - -### Size - -| Component | pwl | quadratic | -| :-------------------- | :--: | :-------: | -| variables | 1405 | 420 | -| binary_variables | 510 | 10 | -| integer_variables | 0 | 0 | -| continuous_variables | 895 | 410 | -| disjunctions | 5 | 5 | -| disjuncts | 10 | 10 | -| constraints | 1339 | 334 | -| nonlinear_constraints | 28 | 33 | - -### References - -> [1] Ruiz J., Grossmann I.
