The 2024 Water Management Conference brought together water management experts from academia, industry, and regulatory authorities to discuss and share insights into Environmental Impact, Produced Water Treatment, Green Chemicals Development, and Produced Water Re-injection.

Steve Coffee gave a keynote presentation on Global Produced Water Strategies & the Role of Produced Water in Energy Expansion, and technical sessions included topics such as:

  • Less Common Toxic Pollutants in Produced Water and Their Impact on Sediment and Flatfish
  • Quantification of BTEX contaminants in water by fluorescence spectroscopy and multi-ways analysis
  • Treatment of offshore produced water in a moving bed biofilm reactor pilot system
  • Computational modelling of droplet coalescence with applications to oil-water emulsion
  • Biomass based chemicals as H2S scavengers and corrosion inhibitors
  • Development of halophyte biocide for microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) mitigation
  • Factors contributing to permeability reduction during produced water re-injection
  • Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) as sustainable eco-friendly oxygen scavengers
