The Use of 3D-Printed Polymer Components for the Removal of Heavy Metals and Dyes from Water: A Systematic Literature Review

Water is one of the most valuable resources on the planet; without it, life as we know it could not exist. Consequently, its increasing scarcity and pollution, which are mainly due to industrialization and changing consumption patterns, intensify the stress on water resources. At the same time, industrial activities contribute to water contamination with pollutants such as heavy metals, further reducing water availability. Due to their risks to human health and ecosystems, effective removal stra
