Water and Wastewater Solutions For The Oil and Gas Industry

1. Resolving High PH For Mining Operations 1/29/2014

   For an open-pit taconite mining operation in Minnesota, high pH groundwater required round-the-clock pumping to comply with discharge permit limits. After management installed a control system to neutralize the pH, the treated water leaving the site now meets permit limits. Read this case study to learn more about the installed system and results.

   Explore stories of real success with wastewater treatment at oil/gas refineries, and LNG and chemical plants. 

3. Connected Oil Fields In Peru 9/12/2022

   In May 2017, China National Petroleum Corporation announced it would invest $2 billion in an oil and natural gas block in the southern part of Peru.

4. Fractional Electrodeionization (FEDI) Technology For RO Permeate Polishing And Demineralization 5/5/2016

   Sabine Pass, a large LNG refinery in the U.S., required a membrane desalination solution to cater to its extensive process water needs in order to produce a large amount of liquefied natural gas for export.

5. Electrocoagulation Provides Economical Solution To Oil And Gas Waste Problem 10/4/2016

   A new generation of electrocoagulation-based water treatment has successfully treated wastewater and effluent from a remote onshore natural gas exploration and production project with over three years of continuous operation. To compound the challenges of treating this wastewater and effluent, the unit was required to operate in an extremely environmentally sensitive environment — a pristine tropical rainforest.

6. Pile Cloth Media Filtration Effectively Removes COD And TSS From Oil Refinery Wastewater 12/6/2023

   This application profile focuses on two test sites with different treatment requirements and describes how Aqua-Aerobic Systems’ OptiFiber® pile cloth media filtration was used at both sites to address the removal of harmful constituents from refinery wastewater.

7. New Tech Offers Low-Energy Oil And Gas Wastewater Management 12/14/2015

   Microbial capacitive deionization (MCD) shows promise as a sustainable, low-cost treatment solution for produced water.

8. 3M Purification Filtration In Process Cooling Water 12/1/2020

   The water used in cooling water systems must be filtered to reduce particulates and help protect downstream process equipment from various sources of contamination at numerous entry points.

9. Optimizing RO-Membrane Performance In Produced-Water Applications 12/15/2020

   Here are several important considerations for getting maximum value from produced-water RO treatments at minimal total lifecycle costs.

10. How To Reduce Methane Emissions With Thermal Mass Flow Meters 2/18/2016

    The flare gas discussion is heating up again. According to the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), U.S. oil production is at an all-time high, and so are the harmful methane emissions from leaks, flaring and venting.
