This study presents a global optimization approach for designing a water reuse network in an industrial site in Kenya. Considering the complexity of water streams in terms of variability and number of pollutants, multiple optimum solutions are identified and further screened using post-optimization LCA. Preliminary results show potential for considerable economic and environmental improvements.
