Abstract:In oil and gas explorations, produced water is generated from subsurface reservoirs along with crude oil and gas. The produced water gets separated from hydrocarbon in gas oil separating plant (GOSP). Proper treatment and reuse of the produced water is gaining attention across the globe. Zero liquid discharge (ZLD) produced water desalination technology generates low saline clean water from hypersaline produced water with recovery efficiency 80 to 90%. The minimal quantity of salt laden waste reject streams is… Show more
