The growing global concern with water resources management has driven the search for more effective treatments for industrial effluents. The produced water is inserted in this scenario as one of the largest effluents generated by the oil industry. Besides, it cannot be discarded or reused without proper treatment due to its complex and toxic chemical composition. A bibliometric study was performed on the Scopus database from inception to 2020 in order to map the evolution of scientific publications related to the advanced oxidation processes based on reactions with ozone and Fenton’s reagent. The results reinforced the efficiency of such processes for treating the produced water and the increasing of publications in the last few years, although the first document appeared only in 1995. China was the leading country in this research area, followed by Brazil and the USA. The most relevant journals were the Environmental Science & Technology and the Journal of Hazardous Materials. The research trends pointed out that the use of Fenton, photo-Fenton, and ozonation processes has been associated with other treatment methods to enhance the removal of contaminants in the produced water samples. However, the documents selected revealed the limitation on these processes due to the high costs with energy consumption. The present study can help other researchers mainly due to the few studies in this area, which demonstrates the importance of this prospection to support the development and application of advanced oxidation processes on produced water treatments.

全球对水资源管理的日益关注促使人们寻找更有效的工业废水处理方法。采出水作为石油工业产生的最大废水之一插入此方案中。此外，由于其化学成分复杂且有毒，未经适当处理不能丢弃或重复使用。从开始到 2020 年，对 Scopus 数据库进行了文献计量研究，以绘制与基于与臭氧和芬顿试剂反应的高级氧化过程相关的科学出版物的演变图。尽管第一篇文献仅在 1995 年出现，但结果增强了这些方法处理采出水的效率，并且在过去几年中出版物的增加。其次是巴西和美国。最相关的期刊是环境科学与技术和有害材料杂志。研究趋势指出，芬顿、光芬顿和臭氧化工艺的使用已与其他处理方法相关联，以增强对采出水样品中污染物的去除。然而，所选文件显示了由于能源消耗的高成本而对这些过程的限制。本研究可以帮助其他研究人员，主要是因为该领域的研究很少，这证明了这一前景对支持高级氧化工艺在采出水处理中的开发和应用的重要性。
