abstract

  • In this study, an inexact fuzzy multiobjective programming (IFMOP) method is developed and applied to a case study of water pollution control planning in the Lake Erhai Basin. The IFMOP improves upon the existing multiobjective programming methods with advantages in data availability, solution algorithm, computational requirement and result interpretation. The case study project was supported by the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP). The results indicate that desired schemes for a number of system activities in different subareas/periods were obtained. Inheriting uncertain natures of the model inputs, the majority of solutions present as inexact values which provide decision-makers with a flexible decision space. Generally, the modeling results would provide scientific bases for the formulation of policies/strategies regarding regional socio-economic development and environmental protection.
