In view of the high salinity characteristics of reinjection oilfield wastewater in the Gasi Block of Qinghai Oilfield, with the polymer produced by Shandong Baomo as the research target, we systematically investigated the variations in the impact of six ions, Na+, K+, Ca2+, Mg2+, Fe2+, and Fe3+, in the produced water from polymer flooding on the viscosity and stability of the polymer solution. Additionally, we provided the primary research methods for complexation in reinjected wastewater. Experimental results indicate that the main factors leading to a decrease in polymer viscosity are high-valence cations, with the descending order of their influence being Fe2+> Fe3+> Mg2+> Ca2+> Na+> K+. High-valent cations also effect the viscosity stability of polymer solutions, and their order from greatest to least impact is: Fe2+> Ca2+(Mg2+) > Fe3+> Na+(K+). This article is focused on investigating the influencing factors and extent of the impact of oilfield wastewater on the viscosity of polymer solutions. It illustrates the response mechanism of cations to the viscosity of polymer solutions in reinjection wastewater polymerization. Through this research, the goal is to provide reference control indicators and limits for the water quality of injected polymers at oilfield sites. This ensures the stability and controllability of polymers in field applications and offers theoretical guidance for polymer flooding technology.

Oil-field wastewaters contain high level of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), which have to be analyzed to assess the environmental effects before discharge. In this work, a green fluorimetric detection method that combines excitation-emission matrix (EEM) fluorescence with parallel factor analysis (PARAFAC) algorithm was firstly developed to achieve the direct and simultaneous determination of six U.S. EPA PAHs in two different kinds of complex oil-field wastewaters. Due to the distinctive “second-order advantage”, neither time-consuming sample pretreatments nor toxic organic reagents were involved in the determination. By using the environment-friendly “mathematical separation” of PARAFAC, satisfactory quantitative results and reasonable spectral profiles for six PAHs were successfully extracted from the total EEM signals of oil-field wastewaters without need of chromatographic separation. The limits of detection of six PAHs were in the range of 0.09–0.72 ng mL −1 , and the average spiked recoveries were between (89.4 ± 4.8)% and (109.1 ± 5.8)%, with average relative predictive errors <2.93%. In order to further confirm the accuracy of the proposed method, the same batch oil-field wastewater samples were analyzed by the recognized GC–MS method. t -test demonstrated that no significant differences exist between the quantitative results of the two methods. Given the advantages of green, fast, low-cost and high-sensitivity, the proposed method is expected to be broadened as an appealing alternative method for multi-residue analysis of overlapped PAHs in complex wastewater samples.

In this work, the empirical relationship among three apparent parameters in the hydrophilic–lipophilic deviation (HLD) equation was studied to provide help in using the HLD equation to design a block polyether water clarifier for treating produced water in an oilfield. Ten block polyethers (including six linear polyethers and four branched polyethers) were prepared, and their HLD equations were measured. By curve fitting, the empirical relationship among apparent hydrophobicity characteristic (K), apparent characteristic curvature (Ccn), and apparent temperature coefficient (ct) of block polyether were obtained: K = 9.32ct, Ccn = 18e–24.5K (for linear polyether), and Ccn = 3.7e–20.8K (for branched polyether). By introducing these relationships into the HLD equation and combining an empirical relationship between propylene oxide/ethylene oxide (mole ratio) in a block polyether and K/Ccn, a new block polyether was designed to treat the produced water. The treatment result confirmed the reliability of these empirical relationships. The results expand the practical application of HLD theory and are useful for the development of a block polyether water clarifier.

Developing efficient electrocatalysts suitable for oilfield wastewater is considered the most crucial aspect of advancing photoelectrochemical water splitting for hydrogen production in arid regions. In this work, Sn-doped cobalt iron hydroxide (SnCoFe-LDH/NF) with a nanoarray structure was successfully prepared in situ on nickel foam using a simple electrodeposition method. The catalyst exhibits high oxygen evolution reaction (OER) activity in 1.0 mol L −1 KOH, requiring only an overpotential of 239 mV to provide a current density of 10 mA cm −2 , with a Tafel slope as low as 37.8 mV dec −1 . More importantly, it also maintains excellent electrocatalytic activity in 1.0 mol L −1 KOH+oilfield wastewater. The enhancement of electrocatalysis performance can be attributed to the incorporation of Sn ions and layered structure of hydroxide, which increases the inherent activity of the materials, speeds up the kinetics, and improves the synergy between the hydroxides. This study proposes a simple and efficient strategy to prepare cheap and efficient electrocatalysts operating in complex water systems.

Hydrogen has been recognized as a new green energy source. However, in regions where fresh water is scarce, research on the use of complex water systems, such as seawater and oilfield wastewater, to produce hydrogen by electrolysis instead of fresh water has become a pressing issue. In this paper, a low-cost and easy-to-synthesized hybrid catalyst composed of perovskite oxide SrCo 0.7 Fe 0.3 O 3-δ (SCF) and cobalt-based metal-organic framework (Co-MOF) were synthesized using a simple and feasible in-situ coprecipitation method and exhibited excellent hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) activity in oilfield wastewater. The improvement of activity can be attributed to the synergistic effect between the two materials, which have more concentration of oxygen vacancies and more HER active sites due to Co ion migration. This work provides a practical approach to enhance HER activity in complex water systems by constructing spatial composite structures.
