The data provided here accompanies the soon to be published article titled "Thermodynamic feasibility of shipboard conversion of marine plastics to blue diesel for self-powered ocean cleanup". Contained within the file is the raw data generated from the integrated Monte Carlo simulation and sensitivity analysis. Data is provided for Figure 2 as well as SI Figures SI.2 and SI.3. The data shows the probability of meeting ship exergy requirements in percentage for varying surface plastic volume percent for all the plastics studied for HTL, pyrolysis and varying flowrates. Data is also provided for Figure 4 generated from the framework showing the varying time to clear the Great Pacific Garbage Patch and the associated number of booms for varying boom-boom distances.
