The present invention provides a method of hydrogen production and hydrocarbon wastewater purification comprising providing the hydrocarbon wastewater, forming a baseline reaction mixture by transferring the hydrocarbon wastewater into an enclosed bioreactor, producing baseline microorganism data on an identity and percentage of the at least one microorganism, measuring a baseline amount of hydrogen in a gas sample collected from the enclosed bioreactor, measuring a baseline amount of hydrocarbons in a liquid sample collected from the enclosed bioreactor, producing hydrogen and forming purified water from the hydrocarbon wastewater, harvesting the hydrogen from the enclosed bioreactor by separating the hydrogen from other gasses and transferring the hydrogen into a hydrogen storage container and gathering the purified water from the enclosed bioreactor by transferring the purified water from the enclosed bioreactor to a purified bioreactor to a purified water liquid path.
