Optimizing Operations at JEA's Water System

Abstract

Expands a previously developed software for optimized system controls of aquifer resources (OSCAR) that was developed to minimize cost while improving water quality and better managing water resources. Describes benefits of optimizing operations and includes functional software specifications. Also documents experience and lessons learned in the implementation, calibration, and operation of the OSCAR software. Includes a CD-ROM. Tailored Collaboration partner: JEA Utilities (Florida). Published in 2005.
