What are the Challenges and Limitations of 3D Printed Reactors?
Despite their advantages, 3D printed reactors face several challenges:
- Material Limitations: The range of materials compatible with 3D printing is still limited, particularly for high-temperature or highly corrosive environments. - Structural Integrity: Ensuring the mechanical stability and durability of complex 3D printed structures can be challenging. - Cost: The cost of 3D printing, especially with advanced materials, can be high, potentially limiting widespread adoption.
