title: [Application of linear programming in the allocation of environmental capacity resources].
abstract: This paper analyzes the application of optimization approaches, particularly the application types of the linear programming (LP) model in environmental planning and management; put forwards the objective function models and their constraint conditions. Based on the formulation of linear programming model related to environmental planning the paper develops the allocation model of environmental purification capacity (EPC), and identifies the constraints to EPC allocation and their parameters or co-efficiencies. It is proved that LP approach is a practical and scientific tool for allocating EPC in specific region.
