About

Alexsander Alberts Coelho is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of sustainable construction and advanced manufacturing, with a core focus on bio-based materials and 3D printing technologies. His most cited work, "Wood-based 3D printing: potential and limitation to 3D print building elements with cellulose & lignin" (2023, 24 citations), critically examines the viability of using renewable biomaterials—specifically cellulose fibers and lignin polymers—to fabricate building components. Coelho’s major contribution lies in systematically identifying both the promise and the current technical barriers of valorizing lignin, a low-cost, plant-derived polymer often underutilized in construction. By mapping the potential of wood-based feedstocks for additive manufacturing, he has laid essential groundwork for reducing the building industry’s reliance on non-renewable resources. His research directly addresses urgent sustainability targets, offering a pathway toward fully recyclable, carbon-neutral building elements. Coelho’s work is particularly notable for bridging materials science and architectural engineering, providing a practical roadmap for integrating bio-based 3D printing into real-world construction. With a growing citation record and a focus on scalable, eco-friendly solutions, he is emerging as a key voice in the transition toward a circular, bio-economy-driven built environment.
