Methods of deoiling oily water such as SAGD and frac produce water. The oily water is treated with a natural coagulant selected from tannins and chitosan. A cationic and/or anionic flocculant may also be added to the treated oily water. The thus treated oily water may be subjected to conventional mechanical oil separation techniques such as hydrocyclonic separation, dissolved air flotation, entrapped air flotation, induced gas flotation, gravity filters, reverse osmosis filters, API, or Voraxial® bulk separators and the like.

1. A method for treating produce water from a steam assisted gravity drainage (SAGD) operation, said method comprising the steps of: a) adjusting said produce water to a pH of about 2 to 8;b) after said step a), adding a tannin coagulant to said produce water;c) after said step b), adjusting pH of s
1. A method for treating produce water from a steam assisted gravity drainage (SAGD) operation, said method comprising the steps of: a) adjusting said produce water to a pH of about 2 to 8;b) after said step a), adding a tannin coagulant to said produce water;c) after said step b), adjusting pH of said produce water to between about 6.5 to 10; andd) adding to said produce water from step c) a cationic flocculant and an anionic flocculant, said cationic flocculant comprising a member selected from the group consisting of an acrylamide/quaternary ammonium salt copolymer, a copolymer of epichlorohydrin and amine, an acrylamide allyl trialkyl ammonium copolymer, and acrylamide/diallyl dialkyl ammonium copolymer, said anionic flocculant comprising a member selected from the group consisting of acrylamide/acrylic acid copolymers and salts thereof, acrylamide alkylacrylate copolymers, acrylamide/maleic acid copolymers, acrylamide maleic anhydride copolymers, acrylamide/(AMPS) copolymers, acrylic acid homopolymers and salts thereof, and acrylic acid (AMPS) copolymers. 2. A method as recited in claim 1 wherein said tannin coagulant is added in an amount of about 0.5-1,000 ppm based upon one million parts of said produce water and each of said cationic flocculant and anionic flocculant is added in an amount of about 0.5-100 ppm. 3. A method as recited in claim 1 further comprising separating said produce water in a hydrocyclonic separator, dissolved air flotation unit, entrapped air flotation unit, induced gas flotation unit, gravity filter, reverse osmosis filter, API separator, or centrifugal separators after said step d). 4. A method as recited in claim 1 wherein said tannin coagulant is a tannin/cationic copolymer. 5. A method as recited in claim 4 wherein said tannin/cationic copolymer has a cationic repeat unit moiety comprising MADAME, METAC, or AETAC. 6. A method as recited in claim 5 wherein said cationic repeat unit moiety is MADAME. 7. A method as recited in claim 5 wherein said cationic repeat unit moiety is METAC. 8. A method as recited in claim 5 wherein said cationic repeat unit moiety is AETAC. 9. A method as recited in claim 1 wherein said tannin coagulant is a reaction product of tannin, an aldehyde, and an amine. 10. A method as recited in claim 9 wherein said tannin coagulant comprises a reaction product of tannin, aldehyde, and a primary amine. 11. A method as recited in claim 10 wherein said tannin coagulant comprises a reaction product of tannin/monoethanolamine and formaldehyde. 12. A method as recited in claim 1 comprising further adding a chitosan to said produce water. 13. A method as recited in claim 1 wherein COD, turbidity, and oil and grease concentrations are reduced in said produce water.
