Abstract
ABSTRACT Despite the advancements in alternative fuels and energy sources, there continues to be a significant global dependence on oil production and extraction. A substantial volume of oilfield-produced water (OPW) is generated during the production and extraction processes of oil fields. Recurrent OPW treatments encountered significant challenges in addressing this particular type of wastewater. Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) are regarded as a promising alternative approach for the degradation of recalcitrant organic compounds in the OPW. This review focuses on the characterization of OPW. The treatment of organic pollutants in wastewater using AOPs, such as ozonation, Fenton oxidation-based processes, heterogeneous photocatalysis, and persulfate oxidation, is comprehensively reviewed in terms of their efficiency for pollutant degradation. The primary challenges in this field and the future directions for development are proposed, with the aim of providing a valuable reference for achieving highly effective treatment of OPW.
