 The mass balances are defined in terms of total flows and contaminants concentration.
 Nonconvexities arise from bilinear terms “flows times concentration” in the mixers mass balances and concave investment cost functions of treatment units.
 
-The instance incorporates two approximations of the concave cost term (piecewise linear and quadratic) to reformulate the orginal GDP model into a bilinear quadratic one.
