Fact Sheets

All fact sheets were produced by members of the Industrial Wastewater Community and are available for download.

  • Produced Water: Oil and Gas Terminology Glossary
    Produced water treatment is typically considered an upstream oil and gas (O&G) process. The treatment steps and many terms are unique to this process but common in the industry. This fact sheet has been produced as a single reference primer that provides a broad overview of definitions, treatments, and use related to produced water.

  • Pulp and Paper: Temperature Modeling in Large Basins
    60+% of wastewater produced by the Pulp & Paper industry is treated using large basins. Temperature impacts performance.  This factsheet presents two existing basin thermal models, compares the strengths and weaknesses of both and provide guidance for selection depending on project specifics.
