Multicriteria capacity expansion planning for an urban water system with random data
This paper studies expansion planning of water supply and wastewater treatment systems. The components of these systems (water intakes, main pipelines, recycling treatment plants and users) are described with the aid of main characteristic parameters. For long-term planning (about 20 years) the values of the parameters of the system components are uncertain. So, we propose to treat some parameters of the model as discrete random variables. The problem is formulated as a stochastic multicriteria decision problem taking into account cost, reliability, and environmental protection criteria. The constraints consist of maximum water source capacities and water demands for particular users. We analyse the problem with random coefficients in the objective functions and a random vector of constraint right-hand sides. In the paper, the deterministic multicriteria problem is constructed from the initial stochastic problem. The proposed approach is illustrated by a numerical example.
