Theorem

from the previous section ensures the uniqueness of this minimum.
On the other hand, the mass of nutrient introduced into the aquatic system by
means of the discharge rate

Because all these results can successively be applied to each oil-polluted zone,
we conclude that during the first stage of the remediation strategy, the method allows
us to determine the discharge points
