| Abstract: | In this paper, an optimal water treatment cost model has been developed for Ghana. Linear Programming (LP) was used to formulate the model for Ghana Water Company Limited. It was then tested with real data collected from Weija Water Headworks in Accra using Interior-Point Method. Finally, optimal water treatment cost for Weija Water Headworks in 2014 was found. It is strongly recommended that all Water Headworks under Ghana Water Company Limited (GWCL) should adopt the proposed optimal water treatment cost model so as to save cost. They should also employ at least one Operations Researcher to assist them in their activities. |
