The two liquid products that Case Chemical makes (CS-01 and CS-02)b yield excessive amounts of three


Question: The two liquid products that Case Chemical makes (CS-01 and CS-02)b yield excessive amounts of three different pollutants: A, B, and C. The state government has ordered the company to install and to employ antipollution devices. The following table provides the current daily emissions of each of the three pollutants, in kg/1000 liters of product (kilograms per 1000 liters), and the maximum of each pollutant allowed in kg.

The manager of the Production Department has approved the installation of two antipollution devices. The emissions from each product can be handled by either device in any proportion. (The emissions are sent through a device only once, that is, the output of one device cannot be the input to the other or back to itself.) The following table shows the percentage of each pollutant from each product that is removed by each device.

For example, if the emission from CS-01 is sent through Device 1, 40% of pollutant A, 60% of pollutant B, and 55% of pollutant C are removed. Manufacturing considerations dictate that CS-01 and CS-02 be produced in the ratio of 2 to 1. Formulate an LP model to determine a plan that maximizes the total daily production (amount of CS-01 plus amount of CS-02) while meeting governmental requirements. (10 points)
