Abstract

This data set includes data produced by FHNW and PNO in collaboration with research partners in the framework of the MADFORWATER project. In particular, the data set contains qualitative and quantitative data about different MADFORWATER wastewater treatment technology and irrigation & water reuse technologies, collected by means of surveys and interviews with MADFORWATER project partners. Data were gathered and processed into comparable data types for the purpose of life-cycle assessment (LCA) and cost-benefit analysis (CBA). LCA data includes technology-specific data (description, environmental benefits, and inventory of processes) and the resulting LCA analysis, that contains environmentally relevant indicators for each technology. CBA data includes various performance categories (capital; operating; maintenance and additional costs, such as training and overheads; social/environmental costs imposed on third parties by each wastewater treatment technology and irrigation & water reuse technology, such as noise or carbon impacts; health benefits related to irrigation with treated instead of untreated WW; health/environmental benefits), with specific data for each technology. Data and evaluation results can potentially be used by researchers active in similar research areas in their experiment designs, as well as by companies as a means for innovation decisions and business development.
