Abstract
The optimal waste loading in order to meet a specified water quality goal is found for a class of estuaries exhibiting zero fresh water flow. The distributed parameter models of the estuary are derived and the response of dissolved oxygen deficit to a discharge of waste material is expressed in the form of integral operators, where the kernels are Green's functions. Using functional techniques a minimization problem is formulated and the condition for a minimum in the form of a Fredholm equation is presented. The optimal waste discharge is then found and an example is presented.
