    Enteric gram-negative bacteria-associated peritoneal dialysis (PD) peritonitis is common. These organisms are such as Escherichia coli, Klebsiella and Enterobacter species. Pantoea dispersa belongs to the order Enterobacterales, it has known benefits and a role in agricultural and environmental biotechnology. Pantoea dispersa, although still relatively rare, is being increasingly recognised to cause human infections. We are reporting a case of PD peritonitis caused by Pantoea dispersa in a kidney failure patient on continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD). His peritonitis was treated well with intraperitoneal antibiotics and the patient can resume his CAPD therapy. The increasing reports of Pantoea dispersa-related human infections warrant concerns, both in immunocompromised and immunocompetent patients.

    Semiconductor-based materials utilized in photocatalysts and electrocatalysts present a sophisticated solution for efficient solar energy utilization and bias control, a field extensively explored for its potential in sustainable energy and environmental management. Recently, 3D printing has emerged as a transformative technology, offering rapid, cost-efficient, and highly customizable approaches to designing photocatalysts and electrocatalysts with precise structural control and tailored substrates. The adaptability and precision of printing facilitate seamless integration, loading, and blending of diverse photo(electro)catalytic materials during the printing process, significantly reducing material loss compared to traditional methods. Despite the evident advantages of 3D printing, a comprehensive compendium delineating its application in the realm of photocatalysis and electrocatalysis is conspicuously absent. This paper initiates by delving into the fundamental principles and mechanisms underpinning photocatalysts electrocatalysts and 3D printing. Subsequently, an exhaustive overview of the latest 3D printing techniques, underscoring their pivotal role in shaping the landscape of photocatalysts and electrocatalysts for energy and environmental applications. Furthermore, the paper examines various methodologies for seamlessly incorporating catalysts into 3D printed substrates, elucidating the consequential effects of catalyst deposition on catalytic properties. Finally, the paper thoroughly discusses the challenges that necessitate focused attention and resolution for future advancements in this domain.
