With the increasing interest in the technology, also the associated environmental impacts gain growing importance. Therefore, insights on processes for functional material production and device manufacturing in the domain of printed electronics are required to provide a solid data baseline for determining environmental impacts of printed electronic devices and in a subsequent step benchmark them against conventional electronics. The document at hand summarizes the outcomes of task T11.5 - Pilot line LCA from the publicly funded EU-project LEE-BED (grant agreement no. 814485). The main objectives of the work conducted in this specific work package are the information of material developers, pilot line operators and potential users of printed electronics on the environmental impacts resulting from different production technologies. This means that the manufactured products (demonstrators, end user products) are explicitly not focused on, even though data collection for production processes naturally cannot be performed completely independently of products. Within the project, the outcomes of this task are fed back to the phase 1 service - life cycle analysis, developed in WP3 and applied in WP9 and WP10 in the project duration.enProcess-based life cycle assessment for the manufacturing of functional materials and printed electronicsreport
