Alumni of Biotechnology and School of Biotechnology create +ETANOL project

To help address the lack of ethanol-based disinfectants in the market, Biotechnology Alumni and Católica in Porto are promoting the +ETANOL project. The goal is to catalyze their professional networks and the national business fabric to help reduce the shortage and cost of access to ethanol-based disinfectants and hygiene products, contributing to prevent and mitigate the spread of COVID19 in the immediate and medium term.

Participants in this project are given the opportunity to respond the demand and supply of the various raw materials and production factors, production processes and finished products, in accordance with market rules and in compliance with applicable laws and regulations.  The +Ethanol project is open to the participation of any interested entity that can add value to the announced objective.
