Abstract: Embodiments relate to systems and methods for treating produced water and other contaminated water that can be customized or adapted to particular characteristics of the water and/or its contaminants or other contents while minimizing costs related to treating the water. In an embodiment, a method of treating produced water comprises degrading solid particles in the produced water using beneficial bacteria; filtering solid particles from the produced water; reducing pathogenic bacteria in the produced water by introducing ozone into the produced water; reducing contaminants in the produced water by passing the produced water through at least one filter; reducing salts in the produced water using a reverse osmosis system; and providing treated produced water.
