The methods and resource of the dataset

The dataset included the inventories, impact assessments and cost analyses of different scenarios at the different scales (building and district) and with different water source being reuse (mixed wastewater, graywater). And also inventoaries for thermal recovery and vertical flow wetland. This dataset is associated with the following publication: Morelli, B., S. Cashman, X. Ma, J. Garland, D. Bless, and M. Jahne. Life Cycle Assessment and Cost Analysis of Distributed Mixed Wastewater and Graywater Treatment for Water Recycling in the Context of an Urban Case Study. U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Washington, DC, USA, 2019.

This is the dataset for the research article "A Risk-Based Evaluation of Onsite, Non-Potable Reuse Systems Developed in Compliance with Conventional Water Quality Measures". It compiles the risk results for various reuse configurations and treatment levels that are described in the text. This dataset is associated with the following publication: Schoen, M., M. Jahne, and J. Garland. A Risk-Based Evaluation of Onsite, Non-Potable Reuse Systems Developed in Compliance with Conventional Water Quality Measures. JOURNAL OF WATER AND HEALTH.

There are limited open source data available for determining water production/treatment and required energy for cities across the United States. This database represents the culmination of a two-year effort to obtain data from cities across the United States via open records requests in order to determine the state of the U.S. urban energy-water nexus. Data were requested at the daily or monthly scale when available for 127 cities across the United States, represented by 253 distinct water and sewer districts. Data were requested from cities larger than 100,000 people and from each state. In the case of states that did not have cities that met these criteria, the largest cities in those states were selected. The resulting database represents a drinking water service population of 81.4 million and a wastewater service population of 86.2 million people. Average daily demands for the United States were calculated to be 560 liters per capita for drinking water and 500 liters per capita of wastewater. The embedded energy within each of these resources is 340 kWh/1000 m3 and 430 kWh/1000 m3, respectively. Drinking water data at the annual scale are available for production volume (89 cities) and for embedded energy (73 cities). Annual wastewater data are available for treated volume (104 cities) and embedded energy (90 cities). Monthly data are available for drinking water volume and embedded energy (73 and 56 cities) and wastewater volume and embedded energy (88 and 70 cities). Please see the two related papers for this metadata are included with this submission. Each folder name is a city that contributed data to the collection effort (City+State Abbreviation). Within each folder is a .csv file with drinking water and wastewater volume and energy data. A READ-ME file within each folder details the contents of the folder within any relevant information pertaining to data collection. Data are on the order of a monthly timescale when available, and yearly if not. Please cite the following papers when using the database: Chini, C.M. and Stillwell, A.S. (2017).

This submission contains a set of U.S.-specific potable reuse capital and operations and maintenance (O&M) cost data ($2020) found in published presentations and reports from engineering consulting firms, utility and water agency press releases or websites, and literature. For any unbuilt facilities, the reported costs found in technical documents are mostly engineer estimates and may be subject to change as construction proceeds. This data set contains a mix of both facility specific and total capital costs, which include conveyance infrastructure. Note that this dataset does not include detailed cost breakdowns for each of the facilities. This submission also contains the sources used to build this dataset in pdf format.
