“…As such, this section is focused on categorizing the four established pathways of scaffold formulation and analyzing the relevant literary reports for adsorptive and catalytic materials. It is also worth noting that other techniques, such as stereolithography, where the active material is suspended in a photopolymer and melted by an ultraviolet laser in a layer-wise fashion to produce the final scaffold, are beginning to be applied adsorbent and catalyst manufacturing, − however, they are not as well-developed and, therefore, are not discussed in this review.…”

Porous solids in the form of adsorbents and catalysts play a crucial role in various industrially important chemical, energy, and environmental processes. Formulating them into structured configurations is a key step toward their scale up and successful implementation at the industrial level. Additive manufacturing, also known as 3D printing, has emerged as an invaluable platform for shape engineering porous solids and fabricating scalable configurations for use in a wide variety of separation and reaction applications. However, formulating porous materials into self-standing configurations can dramatically affect their performance and consequently the efficiency of the process wherein they operate. Toward this end, various research groups around the world have investigated the formulation of porous adsorbents and catalysts into structured scaffolds with complex geometries that not only exhibit comparable or improved performance to that of their powder parents but also address the pressure drop and attrition issues of traditional configurations. In this comprehensive review, we summarize the recent advances and current challenges in the field of adsorption and catalysis to better guide the future directions in shape engineering solid materials with a better control on composition, structure, and properties of 3D-printed adsorbents and catalysts.

“…[104] Stereo-lithography has been used to fabricate monolithic photocatalysts. [105,106] Furman et al [107] investigated the influence of monolith geometry on photoreactor efficiency. They used SLA printing to fabricate static mixer, crossed channels, double-helix, quad-helix, and star geometries in epoxy resins.…”

3D printing is a fabrication method that has attracted worldwide attention in recent years, providing a convenient and economical method for the fabrication of 3D structures. With the development of this technology and the reduction of operating costs, the application of 3D printing is greatly expanded. This paper focuses on the application progress of 3D printing in the preparation of photocatalysts. Considering the advantage that photopolymerization-based 3D printing technology can better control the structure and active component distribution of photocatalytic products, the realization possibility of one-step digital light processing (DLP) printing photocatalyst products is particularly prospected. In addition, the latest research progress of photocatalytic materials and 3D printing technology is also summarized, and the problems that need to be broken through in the future development of DLP-3D printing technology are discussed.

“…Similarly, Bozhidar et al used FDM to fabricate structural components of a gas phase photocatalysis reactor used for online monitoring of degradation of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), common air pollutants . Furman et al also employed SLA to fabricated monolithic polymer support designs, shown in Figure e, coated with TiO 2 for photocatalytic degradation of VOCs . These AM fabricated photocatalytic supports, which would not be possible to fabricate using classic manufacturing methods, allow photocatalytic reaction intensification by geometrical means via an increase in irradiated area …”

The global energy infrastructure is undergoing a drastic transformation towards renewable energy, posing huge challenges on the energy materials research, development and manufacturing. Additive manufacturing has shown its promise to change the way how future energy system can be designed and delivered. It offers capability in manufacturing complex 3D structures, with near‐complete design freedom and high sustainability due to minimal use of materials and toxic chemicals. Recent literatures have reported that additive manufacturing could unlock the evolution of energy materials and chemistries with unprecedented performance in the way that could never be achieved by conventional manufacturing techniques. This comprehensive review will fill the gap in communicating on recent breakthroughs in additive manufacturing for energy material and device applications. It will underpin the discoveries on what 3D functional energy structures can be created without design constraints, which bespoke energy materials could be additively manufactured with customised solutions, and how the additively manufactured devices could be integrated into energy systems. This review will also highlight emerging and important applications in energy additive manufacturing, including fuel cells, batteries, hydrogen, solar cell as well as carbon capture and storage.
