Environmental Impacts Analysis for Inkjet Printed Paper-Based Bio-Patch

Qiansu Wan, Rajeev Kumar Kanth, Geng Yang, Qiang Chen, Lirong Zheng, Environmental Impacts Analysis for Inkjet Printed Paper-Based Bio-Patch. Journal of Multidisciplinary Engineering Science and Technology 2(4), 837–842, 2015.

Abstract:

This paper presents comparative environment impact evaluation and assessment between inkjet printing technology based Electrocardiography (ECG)Bio-patch and traditional Printed Circuit Board (PCB) based ECG Holters. Due to the complexity of electronic systems and the consistent lack of solid data about a product’s life cycles, a limited comparison has been carried out to qualify the input and output of raw material resources, energy resources used in manufacturing phases and environmental emissions in end-of-life phases. Based on the GaBi’s balance calculation methodology, a case study is described to illustrated the possibility of environmental
potential benefits from above mentioned technologies.
