}This paper addresses the optimum design of water utilization systems when a single contaminant is present. The application of the necessary conditions of optimality allows an LP or MILP formulation depending on the objective function of choice. Several examples are presented to illustrate the proposed methodology and to point out that several alternative solutions are available.
