Abstract

Abstract: 3D printing (3DP) has emerged in recent years as a form of processing with many exciting aspects. Today, it finds use in the industrial sector as well as among private individuals and small manufacturers, bringing manufacturing closer to end users and helping to bring a multitude of ideas and innovations to life. In this scenario, Chemical Engineering could play an essential role in 3DP, while it can also receive and benefit from many of the characteristics of this technology. This paper aims to highlight those that we consider the most productive meeting points between Chemical Engineering and 3DP, as well as the new techniques and applications that could benefit from this tandem in the future.
