The conservation and proper management of natural resources constitute one of the main objectives of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development designed by the Member States of the United Nations. In this work, a hybrid strategy based on process integration is proposed to minimize freshwater consumption while reusing wastewater. As a novelty, the strategy included a heuristic approach for identifying the minimum consumption of freshwater with a preliminary design of the water network, considering the concept of reuse and multiple pollutants. Then, mathematical programming techniques were applied to evaluate the possibilities of regeneration of the source streams through the inclusion of intercept units and establish the optimal design of the network. This strategy was used in the shrimp shell waste process to obtain chitosan, where a minimum freshwater consumption of 277 t/h was identified, with a reuse strategy and an optimal value of US $5.5 million for the design of the water network.

In this study, three kinds of seafood wastes (shrimp shell particles, oyster shell particles, and internal bone particles of squid) were added to dewatered sludge preconditioned with chemical conditioner (alum or ferric chloride). The specific resistance of sludge dewatering was calculated to evaluate the effectiveness of sludge dewatering. The result showed that adding chemical conditioners alone caused noticeable pH decrease and resulted in a conditioned sludge with poor filterability. The addition of oyster shell or internal bone of squid to chemically preconditioned sludge efficiently improved sludge dewatering. This result was possibly due to both the availability of alkaline and the function as skeleton builder provided by these two waste solids. Particle sizes (0.59-2.0 mm) of oyster shell and internal bone of squid were found to have insignificant effect on sludge dewatering.
