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.本数据集关联发表于《Science of the Total Environment》（总环境科学）、题为《我们能否对美国油气开采产出水（produced water）进行有益回用？》的研究论文，涵盖与美国主要非常规油气区块（unconventional oil and gas plays）相关的水量与水质数据。数据集包含油气开采伴生水体积、各行业县级年度用水量估算值（含水力压裂（hydraulic fracturing）用水），以及产出水水质数据。
