      Hi james0204,

      I’m not sure what you mean by “print”, but I deal with a whole lot of elements in calculations at work. For example:

      Oil and Gas: Methane, propane, heavier hydrocarbons
      Pipelines: Steel (iron, carbon + others like manganese, chromium, nickle)
      Water: Freshwater, seawater

      Hope this helps!

      Hi James, I don’t really work with chemicals. I design using materials like concrete and steel, but apart from the coatings we may use to protect a bridge I don’t do any thing much with chemicals.

      Hi james,

      Whatever chemicals or elements come out of my printer in the office 😉 I don’t honestly know what they are but they do the job for me!
