These systems offer significant advantages, including high contaminant removal efficiencies, compact design, and the potential for resource recovery. The review emphasizes the application of these technologies, their performance in meeting regulatory standards, and the challenges they face, such as operational efficiency and fouling. It highlights the need for further research and for the optimization of processes to enhance their efficiency. The integration of conventional methods with advanced treatment processes is also explored, with a vision toward developing hybrid systems for improved treatment efficiency. Overall, membrane-based systems show great promise for the treatment of produced water, but further advancements, sustainability considerations, and integration with other technologies are essential for their successful implementation in large-scale applications. © 2023 by the authors. date: 2023 official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85168809743&doi=10.3390%2fw15162980&partnerID=40&md5=f14de3da7073443e46b307a2c71c6410 id_number: 10.3390/w15162980 full_text_status: none publication: Water (Switzerland) volume: 15 number: 16 refereed: TRUE citation: Ibrahim, M. and Nawaz, M.H. and Rout, P.R. and Lim, J.-W. and Mainali, B. and Shahid, M.K.
