Carrageenan has diverse industrial applications including use in toothpaste, ice cream, chocolate milk, jellies, puddings, pet foods, pharmaceutical and industrial suspensions, antiulcer treatments, shampoos, creams, lotions, and oil/water and water/oil emulsions. Carrageenan reacts with denatiu-ed proteins and has been shown to exhibit properties similar to those of the animal mucopolysaccharides, such as anticoagulant activity and induction of growth of new connective tissue.

Commercial grades of CMC are physiologically inert and usually have a degree of substitution between 0.5 and 0.85. CMC is mainly used in wallpaper adhesives, pharmaceutical and cosmetic agents, viscosity modifiers in emulsions and suspensions, thickener in ice cream industries, and soil- suspending agents in synthetic detergents. 

Chemically, GA is a complex mixture of macromolecules of different size and composition (mainly carbohydrates and proteins). Today, the properties and features of GA have been widely explored and developed and it is being used in a wide range of industrial sectors such as textiles, ceramics, lithography, cosmetics and pharmaceuticals, encapsulation, food, etc. Regarding food industry, it is used as a stabilizer, a thickener and/or an emulsifier agent (e.g., soft drink syrup, gummy candies and creams) (Verbeken et al., 2003). 

Human skin is the largest organ in the human body. It is fundamentally important to health as the semi-permeable barrier - the first line of defence - between the body and the external world. However, it remains relatively inaccessible to conventional magnetic resonance imaging, firstly because it is thin and therefore requires high spatial resolution, and secondly because it is characterized by relatively short T2 relaxation times, particularly in the outermost stratum comeum. Conventional studies have not usually achieved a resolution better than 70-150 pm, with an echo time of the order of a millisecond or so. As a planar sample, skin has proved amenable to GARField study where it has been possible to use both a shorter echo time and achieve a better spatial resolution, albeit in one direction only. Such studies have attracted the interest of the pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries that are interested in skin hydration and the transport of creams and lotions across the skin. 

The facility considered in the industrial case study is a pharmaceuticals production plant, which produces a wide variety of consumer products, e.g. shampoos and creams, and female sanitary products. The plant was chosen due to the fact that production was carried out in batch mode. In a year the plant uses on average 90000 m3 of water, with approximately 60-70% of this discarded as effluent. An on-site treatment facility pre-treats wastewater produced from the site to a level where the water can be discharged into the municipal water system.
