Data of the life cycle impact assessment and cost analysis of prospective direct recycling of end-of-life reverse osmosis membrane at full scale

Abstract

This data includes the geographical data, the Life Cycle Inventory data and Life Cycle Assessment data of the implementation of end-of-life (EoL) reverse osmosis (RO) direct recycling implementation at full scale in a Spanish region. Besides, the data allows the comparison of the environmental profile between recycled membrane products with the commercial counterparts. The EoL-RO stock potential was analysed constrained to the Segura's watershed. However, the distribution of recycled membranes was considered within the European Union's borders. The International Life Cycle Data system (ILCD) midpoint impact categories and the indicator Service Life Ratio (SLR) are presented. This data could be used for deepening analyses as the externalities monetarisation or business model identification or policymakersThis data article is related to J. Senán-Salinas, A. Blanco, R.
