Exploration and production of oil and gas (O&G) generates large volumes of wastewater. High salinity and the presence of both dissolved constituents and suspended solids require complex and expensive treatment of O&G produced waters for beneficial reuse (e.g., fracking, irrigation, surface water discharge). Nearly 90% of wastewater produced during the lifetime of O&G wells is currently disposed of due to the high cost of treatment; thus, simple and inexpensive treatment technologies and approaches must be developed to promote water reuse in the O&G industry. In this study we investigated the potential for publicly owned wastewater treatment plants to co-treat produced water and residential wastewater. The removal of organic compounds, nutrients, metals, trace organic compounds, and suspended solids from the combined stream was investigated using a pilot-scale hybrid sequencing batch reactor membrane bioreactor system. Produced water was initially dosed at 6% by volume, and comparable removal of primary (i.e., chemical oxygen demand, ammonia) and secondary constituents (i.e., trace organic compounds, inorganic contaminants) to control conditions was achieved. When produced water was increased to 20% of the influent by volume, nitrification was lost; however, the dominant biological communities in the bioreactors remained stable, providing evidence of an adaptive system and reliance on non-dominant microorganisms to achieve optimal treatment.
