The invention provides, in one aspect, a system for recirculating ozonated liquid. The system includes a contactor including at least two inlets and at least two outlets. The contactor is in fluid communication with a first liquid source at a first contactor inlet and a second liquid source at a second contactor inlet, and the second contactor inlet receives gas that purges at least a portion of gas from liquid received at the first contactor inlet. The purged gas exits the contactor at a first contactor outlet. The contactor is in fluid communication with the second liquid source at a second contactor outlet, and the contactor drains at least a portion of the liquid in the contactor, the drained liquid exiting the contactor at the second contactor outlet. The contactor includes a third inlet in fluid communication with the first liquid source, the third inlet allowing the first liquid source to release liquid at an ambient pressure.

The present disclosure provides an apparatus comprising a primary treatment system configured to remove solids from an untreated fluid to generate a primary treated fluid. The apparatus further comprises an oxidation treatment system including an inlet configured to receive the primary treated fluid, an ozone inlet configured to receive ozone from an ozone generator, and an outlet configured to dispense secondary treated fluid. The apparatus may further comprise a controller in electrical communication with the ozone generator. The controller is programmed to regulate the flow of ozone through the oxidation treatment system such that an effective amount of ozone contacts the primary treated fluid to generate the secondary treated fluid. In some embodiments, the secondary treated fluid discharging from the oxidation treatment system has a chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal level of greater than 85%.
