ABSTRACT:
A process and system are provided for treating wastewater having at least a hydrocarbon component and water in which a multi-phase liquid system including an aqueous hydrocarbon-contaminated layer is formed and isolated from a remaining hydrocarbon-enriched layer. The aqueous hydrocarbon-contaminated layer is treated to remove volatile hydrocarbon contaminant, insoluble organic contaminant and dissolved hydrocarbon contaminant.
