Datasets and OpenLCA foreground data processes for the article: Understanding environmental trade-offs and resource demand of direct air capture technologies through comparative life-cycle assessment

This data set contains the supplementary data sets (1-3) and exported foreground data processes from OpenLCA for the manuscript “Understanding environmental trade-offs and resource demand of direct air capture technologies through comparative life-cycle assessment”, submitted to Nature Energy. This repository contains: Supplementary data set 1: Ancillary calculations and numerical values for HT-Aq DAC Supplementary data set 2: Ancillary calculations and numerical values for TSA DAC Supplementary data set 3: Ancillary calculations and numerical values shown in plots and table 3 Foreground data from OpenLCA. OpenLCA process model for different cases of HT-Aq DAC and TSA DAC. To re-run the LCA calculations, OpenLCA (freeware) and the Ecoinvent 3.5 database (license required) need to be installed on a standard desktop computer or laptop with at least 8 GB RAM.
