Datasets associated with investigating the potential for beneficial reuse of produced water from oil and gas extraction outside of the energy sector

The data are associated with paper titled "Can we beneficially reuse produced water from oi and gas extraction in the U.S.?" publish in Science of the Total Environment and include data on water volumes and water quality related to the major unconventional oil and gas plays in the U.S.. The data include volumes of water co-produced with oil and gas production, county-level estimates of annual water use volumes by various sectors, including hydraulic fracturing water use, and the quality of produced water.

本数据集与题为《我们能否有益地再利用美国油气开采产生的废水？》的论文相关联，该论文发表于《环境总科学》杂志，并包含有关美国主要非常规油气藏的水量及水质的数据。数据包括与油气生产共生的水量、各行业（包括水力压裂用水）在县级层面的年度用水量估算，以及产出水的质量。
