Faculty of Engineering / University of Kerbala has discussed the M.A thesis which is entitled “Produced Water Treatment Using Ultrafiltration Membrane Process Experimental Study” which has been presented by Zahraa Najah Abdel Hadi.
The thesis aims at using a polyether sulfone ultrafiltration membrane in the treatment of associated water generated from the Al-Ahdab oil field in Wasit Governorate as a case study in laboratory experiments.
The study has concluded that the removal efficiency is high for most criteria and about 100% removal for the three criteria (oil content, total suspended solids, and heavy metals). In this study, the combination of conventional treatment and membrane techniques show an increase in the removal efficiency of all standards and approached the permissible limits for Iraqi standard water IQS.
