How chemical engineers can contribute to fight the COVID-19

The SARS-CoV-2 virus, promoter of COVID-19, already infected millions of people around the world, resulting in thousands of fatal victims. Facing this unprecedented crisis in human history, several research groups, industrial companies and governments have been spending efforts to develop vaccines a...

description The SARS-CoV-2 virus, promoter of COVID-19, already infected millions of people around the world, resulting in thousands of fatal victims. Facing this unprecedented crisis in human history, several research groups, industrial companies and governments have been spending efforts to develop vaccines and medications. People from distinct knowledge fields are doing their part in order to overcome this crisis. Chemical Engineers are also contributing in the development of actions to control the SARS-CoV-2 virus. However, many chemical engineers still do not know how to use the knowledge acquired from Chemical Engineering school to collaborate in the fight against the COVID-19. In this context, the present paper aims to discuss several knowledge fields within the Chemical Engineering and correlated areas successfully applied to create innovative and effective solutions in the fight against the COVID-19.
