Petrochemical and oil & gas industries are crucial for global economy while great attention is needed for the related contamination and its impact on the environment. Papers reviewed herein represent the recent research and development on petrochemical wastewater and produced water from oil & gas industry, published in 2017 and beginning of 2018 globally. In the petrochemical wastewater, progresses were made in characterization, physicochemical treatment and biological treatment. In the oil & gas produced water, efforts were made on the characterization, the environmental impact and treatment options.
