Abstract: Produced water from a crude oil or natural gas production process is purified using a membrane purification system for petroleum production, agricultural, commercial and domestic uses. The produced water is pretreated to remove, at least, particulates and oil from the produced water. The minimally pretreated water is then purified in a membrane purification system, that is operated at conditions such that membrane scaling is reduced or prevented. In particular, the membrane purification system is operated to maintain the turbidity of clarified water feed to the system or intermediate aqueous streams that are cascading through the membrane purification system. Ensuring that the turbidity of the reject streams generated in the membrane system are useful in achieving long membrane operating life.

Abstract: A method for treating water high in sulfate includes passing the water at a temperature of 10° C. to 45° C. through a nanofiltration membrane module and a reverse osmosis membrane module in series such that the retentate stream from the nanofiltration membrane module is fed to the reverse osmosis membrane module. A first permeate stream from the nanofiltration membrane module has at least 90% lower sulfate content than the feed stream. A second permeate stream from the reverse osmosis membrane module has at least 95% lower sulfate content than the retentate stream from the nanofiltration membrane module. The first and second permeate streams are combined to form a treated stream containing less than 40 ppm sulfate. A system including the nanofiltration and reverse osmosis membrane modules in series is also disclosed.
