Datasets For Manuscript: Multi-scale Techno-economic Assessment Of Nitrogen Recovery Systems For Livestock Operations

The datasets contain data required to determine the recovery efficiency and nitrogen losses of each of the six studied technologies and nitrogen recovery cost, as well as an environmental cost-benefit analysis to compare the nitrogen recovery cost versus the economic losses derived from its uncontrolled release into the environment. Also, the Tower flooding capacity correlation considering the packing pressure drop (Figure 3), the relative flows of inorganic nitrogen in the studied processes (Figure 4), the processing and nitrogen recovery costs of the assessed nitrogen recovery technologies for different livestock facility sizes, including the cost of pretreatment and AD stages (Figure 5), the processing and nitrogen recovery costs of the assessed nitrogen recovery technologies for different livestock facility sizes, excluding the cost of anaerobic digestion stage (Figure 6), and the other datasets to obtain the supplemental information figures.
