Is the zero order costing utilization factor same as ro.costing? Can you tell me some background why we need to use zero order costing in this flowsheet?

Yes, both utilization factors are set to 0.85. Zero order costing is needed to cost the ZO nanofiltration and pump models The dye_desalination_global_costing.yaml file is also linked to the zero order costing and provides values like dye_disposal_cost, recovered_water_cost, electricity_cost, etc.

Just as a reminder for both of us--should double-check capital recovery factor values for both ZO and "detailed" costing packages and ensure that they are equivalent and line up with what was used for analyses.

I've set the capital recovery factor for ro_costing to 0.065, which is the value used by the zo_costing and our analyses
