Companies across numerous industries – including petrochemical refining, wastewater treatment, and mining – use mathematical optimization to solve the pooling problem. In this example, we’ll guide you through the process of building a mixed-integer quadratically-constrained programming (MIQCP) model of a pooling problem using the Gurobi Python API and show you how to generate an optimal solution to the problem with the Gurobi Optimizer.
This modeling example is at the advanced level, where we assume that you know Python and the Gurobi Python API and that you have advanced knowledge of building mathematical optimization models. Typically, the objective function and/or constraints of these examples are complex or require advanced features of the Gurobi Python API.
