A method of treating produced water, such as frac flowback, that includes pre-treating the produced water which is followed by a crystallization process that produces a condensate that typically includes ammonia and benzene. The ammonia and benzene concentration is reduced by biologically nitrifying and denitrifying the condensate. This produces an effluent that is directed to a solids-liquid separation process that removes suspended solids. The solids-liquid separation process produces another effluent that is subjected to a benzene polishing process that further reduces the benzene concentration of the effluent produced by the solids-liquid separation process.
