The removal efficiency of chemical oxygen demand (COD) is evaluated. TiO<sub>2</sub> dosage and pH are the main factors that improve the COD removal in the TiO<sub>2</sub> photocatalysis process while Fe<sup>+2</sup> and H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> concentration are the main factors in photo-Fenton process. The photo-Fenton coupled with TiO<sub>2</sub>/ZnO photocatalysis is the most efficient process for treatment of petroleum wastewater at the neutral conditions (pH 7). Therefore, no need to adjust pH during this treatment. In acidic conditions (pH<7), the photo-Fenton process is more efficient than the TiO<sub>2</sub> photocatalysis process while it is less efficient than the TiO<sub>2</sub> photocatalysis process in alkaline conditions (pH>7).</p> </p></abstract><publication_date><month>03</month><day>30</day><year>2017</year></publication_date><pages><first_page>167</first_page><last_page>175</last_page></pages><publisher_item><identifier id_type="pii">gnest_02079</identifier></publisher_item><doi_data><doi>10.30955/gnj.002079</doi><timestamp>1713481702</timestamp><resource>https://journal.gnest.org/publication/gnest_02079</resource></doi_data></journal_article></journal></body></doi_batch> </div>
