[0002] Oil is one of the energy sources necessary for the normal operation of today's society. Oil extraction technology is becoming more and more advanced, and the scale of extraction is also increasing. my country's oil extraction generally uses water injection to transport oil, which will produce a lot of wastewater. The wastewater contains a large amount of substances that are difficult to separate and degrade, which increases the viscosity of the wastewater and is not easy to remove by volatilization. Discharging it into the natural world will cause serious pollution. These wastewaters need to be treated before being discharged to promote the green development and sustainable development of the oil extraction industry.

[0003] The defects of the existing low-carbon zero-discharge system for oil production wastewater are:

However, the above document does not use renewable energy, and does not oxidize the organic and inorganic substances in the wastewater that are difficult to treat, which makes the wastewater less volatile, resulting in reduced evaporation efficiency and high energy consumption.

[0005] 2. Patent document KR101272875B1 discloses a zero-discharge wastewater treatment method and system. However, in the above document, in the process of filtering the wastewater, it is difficult to remove organic matter and ammonia nitrogen in the wastewater before evaporation treatment, which easily causes the water quality index after treatment to fail to meet the standard, and multiple treatments are required, which easily leads to technical problems such as increased treatment costs and energy consumption;

Patent document US08048311B2 discloses a zero-discharge water treatment method and system, but the above document does not recover the reusable iron ions in the wastewater, and when filtering, it is only filtered through a single-layer filter membrane, which easily leads to poor water quality indicators;

[0019] The utility model low-carbon zero-emission system for petroleum extraction wastewater can convert high-salt and high-concentration wastewater into biodegradable low-concentration wastewater through a biochemical unit. Electrocatalytic oxidation can increase the evaporation multiple and evaporation efficiency, reduce evaporation energy consumption, and solve the problems of excessive ammonia nitrogen and COD in evaporated condensed water, scaling of organic matter in the evaporator, large evaporation of membrane concentrate, and temperature rise caused by evaporating organic matter, resulting in a large amount of liquid at the bottom of the kettle.

Through the setting of the first membrane separation tank, the ultrafiltration membrane and the reverse osmosis membrane, the incoming wastewater can be subjected to multiple filtrations. The wastewater separated and concentrated by the low-pressure reverse osmosis membrane is transported to the second membrane separation tank through a water pump and a concentrate delivery pipe, and is further separated and concentrated by a high-pressure reverse osmosis membrane to remove soluble organic matter, inorganic salts and trace harmful substances, thereby reducing the amount of membrane concentrate and increasing the salinity of the membrane concentrate. The wastewater is transported to the first membrane separation tank through a water pump and a produced water delivery pipe for re-filtration to improve the water quality indicators of the produced water.

[0022] Through the setting of the water reuse storage pool, the produced water obtained from the first membrane separation tank and the condensed water obtained from the condenser can be recycled and reused through pipelines, and used in projects that require the use of clean water, such as dilution of wastewater, to achieve the effect of zero wastewater discharge and reduce waste of resources.
