Chair: Mike Hightower, New Mexico Produced Water Research Consortium; Brian Bohm, Apache Corporation

A produced water management technique to reduce produced water disposal include recycling and/or volume reduction.  This session will highlight emerging technologies being developed to enhance produced water evaporation or vaporization from storage ponds or pits without the common environmental, ecological, and operational impacts identified with the use of more traditional evaporation technologies and approaches.
