Research progress of oilfield produced water treatment technology at this stage

Abstract

This paper reviews the nature and composition of recovered water from oil fields at this stage. A systematic introduction to the current stage of oilfield produced water treatment methods, and an analysis of the advantages and disadvantages of their various methods to compare. The coupling process of adsorption using activated carbon fibers with electrocatalytic oxidation is briefly described for the current status of oilfield produced water treatment. It is pointed out that coupling adsorption method with electrocatalytic oxidation process is a new research direction for oilfield produced water treatment.
