This paper presents a state of the art review of water quality optimisation models and techniques from early 1970s to date in terms of the model/technique category, model/technique type, purpose and application. The models are categorised into Mathematical Programming Models and Meta-heuristic Programming Models. Similarly, the techniques are categorised into Mathematical Programming Techniques and Meta-heuristic Programming Techniques. The review is concluded by drawing attention to the rare nature of application of interior-point methods to water quality optimisation.
