“…Boix et al [73], proposed a mathematical model to handle multi-contaminant systems, with a solving procedure based on Multiple Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) methods for MINLP models. Later, De-León Almaraz et al [74] completed the previous work by considering more details and complete databases. These two works [73,74] led to the development of an extensive water network allocation network for a different type of industries by handling multi-contaminant systems.…”

These two works [73,74] led to the development of an extensive water network allocation network for a different type of industries by handling multi-contaminant systems. In the oil refinery sector mathematical models have been developed as well [72,75] to handle multi-contaminant systems while considering regeneration, reuse and recycling, and good reductions in water consumption are also found by applying this method.…”

The implementation of sustainable water management practices, through the recycling and reuse of water, is essential in terms of minimizing production costs and the environmental impact of the food industry. This problem goes beyond the classical audit and housekeeping practices through developing a systemic water-using reduction strategy. The implementation of such an approach needs R&D development, especially for the food industry, where there is a lack of knowledge on: (a) process integration and (b) data on the pollutant indicators or (c) volumes of water used and discharged at specific steps of the food processing line. Since energy pinch analysis emerged, different variations of pinch methods have been developed. As a variation of pinch, Water pinch analysis is a global and systematic approach to minimize water consumption and discharges, especially for the most energy-intensive and water-consuming factories. Based on the nature of the food industry, the real systems are complex, multi-source multi-contaminant systems, the problem should be well formulated, including mathematical constraints (inequalities thresholds). Current work has reviewed comprehensive literature about different variations of pinch analysis. In continue, water pinch method deeply discussed and some relevant data concerning the water using process and pollutant indicators have been reviewed with emphasis on the food industry sector.

“…There exists a third approach combining the synergies of conceptual and mathematical approaches. Hybrid methodologies [58][59][60][61][62][63][64][65] were first highlighted by Bagajewicz [9] as the most effective alternative to their individual applications. Such approaches allow the use of insight-based heuristics in formulating the mathematical models and hence aid mathematical approaches in representing practical and realistic alternatives in their superstructure.…”

“…In "separate" methodologies, fresh water consumption is minimized in the first step, while the water network is designed without considering temperature constraints of the network. Knowing these two, in the second step, thermal streams will be extracted for heat integration [64,[66][67][68]. "Sequential" methodologies are similar to "separate" methodologies in the fact that fresh water consumption is minimized in the first stage; however, this target is incorporated in the second step, where heat integration and water network design are performed simultaneously [6,14,42,69,70].…”

“…They argued that use of live steam in water networks is doubly beneficial since it can reduce the steam consumption and also eliminate the use of heaters, hence reducing the capital cost. To the best of the authors' knowledge, the methodology presented by De-León Almaraz et al [64] is the only work considering the use of vapor-state water in the water network. For implementation reasons, they modeled the phase change by only considering the sensible heat in the HEN design, while the latent heat is added to the solution via addition of a corresponding hot utility.…”

Industries consume large quantities of energy and water in their processes which are often considered to be peripheral to the process operation. Energy is used to heat or cool water for process use; additionally, water is frequently used in production support or utility networks as steam or cooling water. This enunciates the interconnectedness of water and energy and illustrates the necessity of their simultaneous treatment to improve energy and resource efficiency in industrial processes. Since the seminal work of Savulescu and Smith in 1998 introducing a graphical approach, many authors have contributed to this field by proposing graphically-or optimization-based methodologies. The latter encourages development of mathematical superstructures encompassing all possible interconnections. While a large body of research has focused on improving the superstructure development, solution strategies to tackle such optimization problems have also received significant attention. The goal of the current article is to study the proposed methodologies with special focus on mathematical approaches, their key features and solution strategies. Following the convention of Jeżowski, solution strategies are categorized into: decomposition, sequential, simultaneous, meta-heuristics and a more novel strategy of relaxation/transformation. A detailed, feature-based review of all the main contributions has also been provided in two tables. Several gaps have been highlighted as future research directions.
