Biomimetic structures involve design and fabrication to mimic the natural world, taking inspiration from unique shapes, patterns, functions of biological organisms. This approach has proven be highly effective in building new functional efficient for many applications. While it is often challenging fabricate some complex biomimetic structures, development 3D printing technologies recent years made more feasible, being a powerful tool fabricating with high precision accuracy, at much reduced use starting materials. In this review, we will examine current state fabricated by techniques their specific applications energy environmental fields decarbonization demand. The different selected types that have been constructed using printing, materials used, properties obtained explored. Subsequently, typical applications, such as supercapacitors, zinc-air batteries, oil/water separation, self-cleaning, water collection, droplet manipulation, etc., discussed. Finally, opportunities rapidly changing area analyzed, hoping provide insights into innovative pathways 3D-printed can used address challenges areas.
