Abstract:
The data presented in this paper offer the information needed for assessing the water footprint of steel production. The data provided here are related to the research paper, "An Improved Water Footprint Model of Steel Production Concerning Virtual Water of Personnel: The Case of Iran" [1]. The data were collected form analysing a case study and reviewing the relevant literature. The case study data were collected from a large steel plant in Iran. All information received from this plant is related to 2017. The primary data were collected by interviewing the head of the research and development of the plant. All relevant formal documents of the plant and information on its web site were also reviewed. For data related to the water footprint of energy and raw materials, used for steel production, the relevant studies were reviewed.
