Research focused on innovation

With the beginning of our administration at the head

of the São Paulo State Government in January 2011,

we found the Institute for Technological Research (IPT),

linked to the Secretariat of Science, Technology, and

Economic Development ready to take one more step

towards the future after consolidating a R$120 million

investment cycle for new laboratory capabilities and

professional training.

Technology is one of the pillars of development and a

strategic agent for national action in the international

scene. This is a reality that becomes more evident each

day and the challenge for IPT is to look towards the future

and detect the demands and opportunities that can

promote innovation, bringing industry and services closer

to the knowledge produced in our universities.

Investment in technology is ongoing. For this reason, the

State Government is directing this year more than R$ 50

million to IPT in order to enable the Institute to continue

its modernization process.

In 2011, IPT will inaugurate the facilities of its new

bionanomanufacturing laboratories which will conduct

important biotechnology, particle technology, and

micro equipment manufacturing research. Other of the

Institute’s projects, to be inaugurated in 2012, is the Light

Structure Laboratory (LEL); currently in experimental

operation at the São José dos Campos Technology Park,

this laboratory will help to allow the aviation industry to

build more efficient aircraft, for example.

IPT will also start a biomass gasification plant project

in Piracicaba that will enable the production of second

generation ethanol from sugarcane bagasse, currently

used from burning to generate energy. With the

gasification the productivity of mills could be doubled

without increasing the size of cultivated areas. This project

will also impact IPT’s position as well as the nation’s, in

a global technology race now that gasification – with

bagasse, coal, or other biomass – is yet to be conquered.

Technology and Entrepreneurship

The nation’s economic development and that of the State

of São Paulo depends on coordinated actions that envision

factors such as strengthening new companies, job

creation, workforce training and technological research

for innovation.

Based on this perspective, the Secretariat of Science,

Technology, and Economic Development sees the

modernization of the Institute for Technological Research

(IPT) as a project in line with the training of technical

personnel and higher learning graduates for even further

integration of development initiatives.

The Secretariat serves as a connector between the

agencies and universities under its structure and the

industry. IPT plays an important role as a mediator of this

link, having the ability to participate in initiatives for fast

absorption of technological know-how by companies and

for process quality improvement.

More technology also means speedy responses to the

market demands for companies. One of the missions of

the Secretariat under Geraldo Alckmin’s administration

is to promote IPT capabilities and in this way take

technological innovation to the small and medium

business owners. The trademark of entrepreneurship is

the trademark of São Paulo, and technological innovation

along with entrepreneurship is one of our main objectives.

Development Partner

In 2010, the Institute for Technological Research

(IPT) completed a three-year investment cycle for the

modernization of laboratories and its administration,

starting to operate its new infrastructure and to project

social benefits. During the 2008-2010 period, the Institute

consolidated projects that allowed the invigoration of its

historic role as partner in the development of the State

and ation.

From these new capabilities, the Institute returns its

attention to the 2020 Plan focusing on strategic action

that will guide technological development in this decade.

Technological innovation is one of the pillars of the

globalized world. The strengthening of IPT is an action

that should make a huge impact on areas that depend on

knowledge and create demands for sustainable solutions.

Through this report, the reader can verify that the

modernization of IPT is a challenge that also takes its

human resources in strong consideration. The Institute

hired professionals through public examinations and

consolidated an international program for professional

training in cutting edge research institutes, as well as

it works to restructure their careers to reflect the new

realities of the job market.

The reader can also learn about the various new areas

of laboratory capabilities, such as oil flow metrology,

corrosion, and light structures, which area inserted into

strategic contexts for national research and industrial

development. Also worthy of mention is the series of

projects completed in 2010 which show the value of

IPT’s multidisciplinary focus.

IPT’s transformation IPT 2010 Annual Report

IPT’s transformation

Brazil is currently a highlight in the international economy,

projecting positive indicators and heading along the path

of sustainable growth. Today the country is promising,

most of all, on the energy issue, regardless of which

aspect is addressed. Due to the discovery of oil reserves in

the pre-salt layers and the history with biofuel production,

Brazil maintains promising perspectives in the old

economy, also known as “oil civilization”, as well as in the

new world energy model which will continue to search to

more renewable alternative sources.

In this scenario, technology emerges as a strategic

ingredient for the nation to continue in the spotlight

and help to confront the problems of global warming,

mitigating the impact of production systems.

In 2010, IPT consolidated a three-year investment cycle

applying approximately R$120 million in a more modern

technological structure to face the challenges of the

country’s development. This new technological base

promotes a transformation of the Institute’s role, which

is evermore present in society as a mediator and source

of innovation, enabling the application of technological

knowledge in companies.

IPT’s transformation IPT 2010 Annual Report

IPT’s new laboratory capabilities aim at producing

solutions focused on sustainable development, covering

bionanotechnology, renewable energy, highly efficient

energy materials and infrastructure projects with

lower environmental impact. New laboratories such as

bionanomanufacturing, naval, corrosion, light structures

and oil flow metrology, among others, now provide

support in order for the Institute to develop research and

services of greater added value.

The IPT modernization involves human resources, new

administrative procedures and equipment. The human

aspect is essential to this transformation. In 2010, 80 new

employees were hired through a civil service selection

process in 2008 – considering the 140 in 2009; the

Institute has 220 new employees. And in 2011 it will

hold a new selection process to qualify another

250 professionals.

Another important aspect of research valorization is the

International Development and Training Program (PDCE)

which, in 2010, sent 13 more researchers to complete

training programs in IPT partner institutes abroad, such

as Fraunhofer in Germany, Imperial College in the United

Kingdom, the U.S. Geological Survey, and VTT in Finland.

These researchers join 12 others that participated in the

Program in 2009 and 2008.

The next IPT development cycle, which is now set for

a planning project named “IPT 2020”, will also include

indicators that will reveal the operational effectiveness

of the Institute on its role as liaison between industry

demands and scientific knowledge. Such indicators

involve not only the effective technology transfer but also

its own innovation initiatives such as software, patents,

and publications allowing an overview of the Institute’s

performance in the same approach adopted in other

developing countries such as South Africa, South Korea

and India, among others.

Through this initiative as well as new management

tools, IPT is reorganizing its administration in a way that

will make it a performance model for the nation’s public

research institutes.

The new capabilities IPT 2010 Annual Report

The new capabilities

In 2010-2011, IPT started performing with the

investments made throughout the last three years. 2011

also marks the advance of the Institute’s modernization

project, which is mainly supported by resources

from the State of São Paulo Government, FINEP (the

Brazilian Innovation Agency), and BNDES (the Brazilian

Development Bank). In addition to complementing

investment planning, which will reach the R$180 million

mark, the Institute also receives R$50 million from the

State of São Paulo Government for investments in 2011.

The modernization project is a mark in IPT’s history and

its results can be seen through the new capabilities in

different topics.

17


Pipe corrosion and weathered paint

The Corrosion and Protection Laboratory (LCP) of the

Center for Integrity of Structures and Equipment (Cinteq)

received R$11.8 million in investments. A complete

infrastructure modernization process turned it the

most advanced laboratory of its kind in the Southern

Hemisphere. The study of corrosion is important to avoid

collapse of metallic material in bridges, poles, pipes, tanks,

and all and any solution using steel as the construction

material. Knowledge on the subject supplies subsidies

for the correct material specification whether in large

elements like storage tank slabs or even screws or other

fasteners. IPT’s work in corrosion research has contributed

to the development of international standards as in

the case of corrosion in pipes to be used for petroleum

byproducts. IPT also provides subsidies for standards

related to paint weathering, a rarely studied topic.

Light structures

The Light Structures Laboratory (LEL/Cinteq) is the first

of the genre in the country that will play a strategic part

in the development of new materials and processes for

various fields in the industry, including aviation. The

laboratory was set up in five thousand square meters

at the São José dos Campos Industrial Park. LEL has two

basic physical areas: one dedicated to metallic material

and the other to composite materials like carbon fiber.

In the case of composites, it will have a 1.2 thousand

square meter cleanroom conforming to the standard

aviation industry regulations which will guarantee ideal

conditions for the development and testing of parts. LEL

has a total investment of R$90 million for its installation

and operation along with research projects. In 2010 the

laboratory began conducting its first operational tests.

This project was developed with resources from the

State of São Paulo Government, the São Paulo Research

Foundation (FAPESP), FINEP, and Embraer. The initiative

will bring together the work of universities in this field,

such as the University of São Paulo (USP) and the Air

Force Technology Institute (ITA).

Hydrodynamic testing

The Center for Naval and Ocean Engineering (C-Naval)

revamped its activities with a R$9.5 million investment

in order to receive new facilities aimed to meeting the

Numeric command machine for production of

components in high resistance light compounds in the

Light Structures Laboratory (LEL)

demands of technological support for the maritime

transport and offshore oil platform sectors which are

experiencing a historical resumption of activities after

nearly failing during the 1980s and 1990s. The project

was fostered in the framework of an agreement between

Transpetro and the Ministry of Science and Technology

(MCT). As the owner of the continent’s largest ship fleet,

Transpetro is one of the main organizations demanding

from the laboratory. 90% of the applied resources come

from Petrobras and 10% from FINEP, which is part of

MCT’s structure. The new laboratory project was designed

based on three objectives: create a multi-use center

with 15 work stations for researchers, project team

members and the Institute’s clients; increase the C-Naval’s

laboratory capabilities with modern measurement

equipment for testing in test tank, wind tunnel and

cavitation tunnel (propeller studies); and reduce physical

model construction time for testing in these laboratories.

Propulsion studies

The C-Naval cavitation tunnel completed 47 years of

existence in December and resumed operations as

service provider after reformulation of instrumentation

designed for testing propellers on a reduced scale. The

new measuring equipment was acquired in the Petrobras

Thematic Networking Project for revitalizing the Center

laboratories. The tunnel consists of a closed water

circuit, steel built, constructed in a way that allows the

installation of a propulsion model in its test section. The

water circulating inside the tunnel makes it possible to

measure the parameters of the propeller’s operation

(push and torque) not only in the so-called static

condition, but in all phases of operation.

Anchoring device testing

The new building for heavy testing begins a technical

support operations in 2011, mainly for Petrobras, for

pre-salt oil exploration and production. The laboratory

will conduct long term static and dynamic fatigue testing

in structures and equipment of large scale which are

applied to components of offshore platform anchoring,

risers, umbilical cables, flex and rigid pipes, among others.

The greater part of a total of R$21.7 million for building

the laboratory involves new investments: Petrobras is

participating in the project with R$9.4 million towards

the purchase of equipment and the São Paulo State

Government with R$8.5 million for construction of the

building on the IPT campus, totaling R$17.9 million. The

other R$3.8 million which complete the sum involve

investments already made in equipment with resources

originating from FINEP and private companies in the

heavy mechanical sector interested in new laboratory

capabilities. The laboratory is relevant considering the

depths of pre-salt exploration on high seas, which can

reach over three thousand meters. The increased water

space means a bigger hydrodynamic effect on the

anchor lines and other offshore structures with load

tension that can reach 2 thousand force tons (tf). The

tests conducted by IPT will support the certification of

processes and products according to the standards for

these applications.

New research in compressed air systems

In October 2010, IPT inaugurated the new Compressed Air

and Gas Systems Laboratory (Lasag/CMF), developed in

partnership with the Brazilian Association of Machinery

and Equipment (Abimaq). The laboratory is the nation’s

first dedicated to testing and analysis of equipment and

compressed air and gas systems such as compressors,

filters, valves, dryers and pneumatic installations, among

others, enabling the quality certification of these systems

in industrial, commercial, and hospital facilities. Lasag

received R$1.1 million in investment, including R$700

thousand from FINEP, R$250 thousand from Abimaq, and

R$ 150 thousand from IPT itself. In addition, laboratory

equipment was donated by manufacturers.

20


New flow measurement capabilities

The Oil Flow Metrology Laboratory, linked to the Center

for Fluid Metrology (CMF), was inaugurated in December

2010 after receiving R$6.7 million in investments, of

which R$4.0 million came from Petrobras by way of the

Metrology Network Project; R$2 million were invested by

the São Paulo State Secretariat of Economic, Science and

Technology Development as part of the IPT modernization

project; and R$700 thousand from FINEP. Based in a 750

square meter building at IPT campus, the laboratory was

planned and built mainly for the purpose of meeting

the needs of the nation’s oil industry and the sector’s

regulatory departments execution of calibration, testing,

comparative testing, research and development in

different types of measuring devices and measurement

system components for oil and byproduct flow.

Electromagnetic compatibility

The new Cinteq electromagnetic compatibility chamber

is dedicated to research on avoiding interference between

electronic equipment like TVs, radios, mobile phones,

computers, and electronic systems, among others. The

State of São Paulo Government invested R$4 million

in the chamber, including the technological resources

and construction projects. The new laboratory will give

technological support to the electronics industry so that

its products are compatible with each other. The chamber

consists of a room equipped with polyurethane foam

with graphite infiltrations by way of a combination of

cones, pyramids and panels through which the goal

is to restrict the echoes of electromagnetic waves,

guaranteeing precision in measurements taken by

the latest generation equipment.

Wave metrology

The Electrical Metrology Laboratory (LME) from the

Center for Mechanical and Electrical Metrology (CME)

is enabling itself for tracking capabilities of magnetic

greatness. The work, groundbreaking in Brazil, will

make it possible to take reliable measurements and

the magnetic characterization of a wide range of field

intensities and magnetic induction. Applications include

testing, calibration and development of components and

equipment used in geophysical prospecting, spectroscopy

and chemical analysis, diagnostic medicine and

therapeutics, in addition to electric machines and cars.

IPT invested, through its modernization project, more that

R$ 250 thousand in equipment and capabilities in this

field. These resources will allow even more development

of simple methods for characterization of magnetic

nanoparticles. In medicine, these nanoparticles can help

to identify and destroy tumors and magnetically guide

the path of medications to the point of interest avoiding

collateral damage in healthy tissues. In a macroscale,

magnetic methods can be used to verify the structural

integrity of components like pipes, risers, and umbilical lines

in industrial installations and oil exploration platforms.

Reference materials for industry

IPT revamped and modernized its measurement structure

for high quality chemistry definitions in the Metrological

References Laboratory (LRM) at CMQ, which will allow

the development of new certified reference materials

(CRM), and the promotion of new inter-laboratory

proficiency programs that support the quality guarantee

of measurements in the steel industry, metallurgy, mining,

and oil in addition to universities and research institutions

in Brazil and abroad. From its establishment in 1976, the

laboratory developed and made available more than 130

types of materials with a variety of certified properties

(in alloys, minerals, oil products), which are used in

instrument calibration, chemical analysis methodology

validation and physical and chemical testing. With the

technological evolution, the industry and the university

now need standards with more certified properties,

at levels up to 10 thousand times smaller than those

necessary in 1990, for example.

New chemistry infrastructure

In October 2010, IPT inaugurated the new Chemical

Analysis Laboratory (LAQ) from the Center for Metrology

in Chemistry (CMQ). An investment of R$5.3 million

allowed the replacement of old equipment, purchase

of latest generation machines and restoration of the

physical LAQ area. The resources came from the São Paulo

State Government for the IPT modernization project.

The laboratory received R$4.7 million in instrumentation

and an additional R$ 600 thousand for upgrades in the

building located at the IPT campus. On the ground floor

the necessary infrastructure was built for trace and ultra-

trace analysis; the tests used to determine the presence of

contaminants in minimal quantities such as heavy metals

and combustibles and pesticide residues in natural waters.

For the execution of the tests, a gas chromatograph

coupled to a high resolution mass spectometer and a

mass spectrometer with an inductively coupled plasma

source was purchased. These allow the laboratory total

coverage of client solicitations. New capabilities will be

available with the restructuring. Two 9.4 Tesla (T) MRI

machines will make molecular research easier, structural

and dynamic determination of samples in a solid state

or in solution. The ample array of benefitting sectors

includes the petroleum industry, agriculture (soil, seeds,

fertilizers), chemical (detergents, pigments), cosmetics,

pharmaceuticals, and food (milk, wine, rice and fats in

general), in analysis for unknown substance identification,

determination of pureness and chemical identity.

23


Metrotomography measurements

NIn 2010 a partnership between IPT and Werth

Messtechnik GmbH, a company from Germany, was

established when a metrotomography machine and high

precision coordinate measurement machine, both made

by the company, were purchased. The partnership, with a

three-year term, includes the donation of two coordinate

measurement and measurement sensor machines

to IPT in exchange for support in the development of

measurement techniques involving the machines and

sensors acquired. Through this partnership, the Institute

becomes an essential part of the process of developing

measurement techniques representing what is most

modern in the sector. Due to this new technology, IPT

sent in 2010 two researchers to Germany for training at

Werth. These trips were possible through the Institute’s

International Development and Training Program (PDCE).

Solar energy research

In 2011 IPT will complete the assembling of its new solar

simulator, at the Building Installations and Sanitation

Laboratory (LIP), at the Center for Technology of the

Built Environment (Cetac). The simulator will allow

the assessment of various electrical and hydraulic

components of the building facilities with emphasis on

compliance assessment and on meeting the demands of

energy efficiency in water heaters (electrical and solar).

The new resource will be essential for the development

of alternative energy technologies. Few countries have

solar simulators. IPT’s simulator will allow conducting

not only collector efficiency tests but also of construction

systems. Its installation will amount to the beginning of

new capabilities for the Institute – which already develops

projects for the usage of alternative energy.

to 300 thousand times (as compared to the conventional

models which are limited to 15 thousand times), while the

gallium ions beam performs the milling of samples – it is

now possible to make an orthogonal cut on surfaces for

3D viewing. The São Paulo State Government invested

€1.046 million for the microscope’s acquisition, including

accessories.

New Photometric Assessments

Cinteq’s Electrical and Optical Equipment Laboratory

(LEO) started to operate in 2010 a strategic piece of

equipment with which the industry can develop fixtures

for commercial, public, residential, and industrial use

with more energy efficiency and lower environmental

impact. Such equipment, the goniophotometer, is a

computerized system that measures the characteristics of

the emitted light which the researchers and technicians

call “photometric curves”. The acquisition of this German

equipment was possible through a R$1 million project

through IPT’s partnership with FINEP and the Brazilian

Lighting Industry Association (Abilux) – the two partners

invested, respectively, R$750 thousand and R$50

thousand. IPS has also invested R$200 thousand in the

project. The goniophotometer is strategic because it is

the first photometric service option with this type of

equipment in Brazil.

Very low pressure measurement

The Mechanical Metrology Laboratory (LMM), linked

to the Center for Mechanical and Electrical Metrology

(CME), modernized its facilities for very low pressure

calibration. Measurement with precise levels of very low

pressure and vacuum, significantly lower than those of

atmospheric pressure, is important for the industry, for

example, for the evaluation of component compliance for

the automotive sector, oil and gas sector process controls,

monitoring conditions of clean rooms, pharmaceutical

ingredient production and altimeters for aircraft. The

calibration of transducers and instruments used for ultra

low pressure measurement is the foundation for the

process of metrological confirmation. It is through this

calibration that information for evaluating the service

of metrology requirements in measurement equipment

is obtained, ensuring the potential monitoring of the

measurement results..

New electron microscoping capabilities

Beginning operations in 2010, the new scanning electron

microscope (SEM) plays a fundamental role in the

classification of material thickness and morphology. The

microscope is one of IPT first pillars in enabling research

and testing on a nanometric scale. With the possibility of

use in several laboratories, the new equipment works with

two types of beams: the main electron beam (FEG) is able

to produce high resolution images which are magnified up

New bionanomanufacturing building

IPT will house Brazil’s most modern center for

bionanomanufacturing research. The construction of

the new building started in December of 2010 and

throughout 2011 the laboratories will be equipped

with already acquired equipment. With investments of

R$ 46 million from the State of São Paulo Government,

the Institute will establish an eight thousand square

meter building for the study of biotechnology

(development with living organisms), particle technology

(microencapsulation of chemicals and medical therapy

components, such as cosmetics), micromanufacturing of

equipment, and metrology. The new construction cost

R$ 21 million and another R$ 25 million are related to

equipment and facilities.

Services with a greater added value IPT 2010 Annual Report

The IPT modernization program launched infrastructure

operations that already add value to the group of services

the Institute offers to the market. This is the case, for

example, of laboratorial research that use high precision

scanning electron microscoping (SEM) – which also

produces knowledge in addition to meet the demands

for services.

An aspect of the strategic knowledge IPT produces can be

found, for instance, at the Residues and Contaminated

Areas Laboratory (LRAC), linked to the Center for

Environmental and Energy Technologies (Cetae), which

is working on a project for remediation and revitalization

of contaminated areas with the support of R$ 14 million

from the Brazilian Development Bank (BNDES). This project

will favor the fight against environmental liabilities and

the recuperation of areas currently contaminated with

industrial residues like organochlorides.

Also worthy of mention is the research for obtaining solar

grade silicon (SiGS), designed for the manufacturing of

photovoltaic cells for generation of electricity, a project

that receives R$ 11.6 million from the BNDES.

The key element to make these new capabilities available

is the planning process through business plans managed

by the Institute’s Technology Administration Management

(GGT). Through this process the IPT Centers establish

goals and broad strategic lines for market performance,

adopting objective criteria under the perspective of

the four IPT lines of action – pre-salt, sustainability,

infrastructure, and bionanomanufacturing.

This whole process of IPT transformation also has the

support of its directors in the form of getting even closer

to the client, which will surely enable the alignment of

decisions with market demands in the different sectors in

which the Institute operates.

Services with a greater added value

29

Services with a greater added value IPT 2010 Annual Report

In this context, among other initiatives, an agreement

between IPT and the State of São Paulo Dersa –

Highway Development Company was established

in November 2010. The Institute began operating in

Dersa transportation infrastructure projects since its

establishment, expanding the range of preventative

action and mitigating the need for corrections based on

unwanted incidents like the November 2009 accident in

which beams of a bridge under construction fell on the road.

The agreement with Dersa is also important because

there is no specific work or projects, but instead it acts

as a reference that can cover all the company’s demands,

improving its management efficiency in new projects.

Modernization indicators

The table above represents the main information on IPT’s

modernization, such as the Institute’s total resources – which

practically doubled from 2007 to 2011, increasing from

R$ 108.6 million to R$ 204.9 million (projected amount).

The income from funding agencies also grew significantly,

increasing from R$ 1.3 million in 2008 to R$ 9.5 million in 2011.

In the organizational indicators, the table shows the

increased efficiency in administrative activities within IPT.

Expenses in this area were reduced from 30% of funding

income in 2007 to 21%. Another indicator is the average

time of purchasing-related operations, which decreased

from 45 to 20 days. In the period analyzed, the tax

liabilities are also being resolved and there are no more

pending utility bills.

In terms of human resources, a highlight is the

operational/administrative employee ratio, which

increased from 3.67 in 2007 to 5.53 in 2011 and allowed

the Institute to focus the greater part of its professional

staff on core activities.

Planning performance indicators

The evolution presented in the table above reflects

an improvement of institutional capacity in annual

planning by the Technology Administration Management

(GGT). This planning process results in the technical

centers’ business plans, completed with precision in

2010 and revealing a new operational standard for the

establishment and achievement of goals. Likewise, the

table also illustrates the implementation of investments

coordinated by the Modernization Management (GMI)

and also testifies to the institutional performance in

the definition and development of laboratory projects

and equipment.

The following are some of the main projects IPT developed

in 2010, organized by private and public sectors:

PROJECTS FOR THE PRIVATE SECTOR

Heterogeneous catalyst to reduce pollution in biodiesel production

Despite the fact that biodiesel is still a fuel under

development and with no supply chain nor structured

final use for establishing an evaluation of its life cycle,

its production has some proven problems in the step

where heterogeneous catalysts are added to conversion

reactors. The purpose of such substances is to accelerate

the transformation of oil (or fats) in fuel which results

in the formation of residues like soap, leading to the

development of emulsions and ending up consuming raw

material, thus reducing its yield. The Chemical Processes

and Particle Technology Laboratory (LPP) at the Center for

Process and Product Technology (CTPP) is looking for a

solution to the problem by developing a heterogeneous

catalyst that will not mix (or that will not dissolve) with

the fluids in the reactor as the fuel is manufactured.

Analysis of electronic products for export

In 2010 the Chemical Analysis Laboratory (LAQ) at the

Center for Chemical Metrology (CMQ) accounted for the

examination of more than three thousand electronic

and appliance component samples since it began, three

years ago, to verify the levels of restricted substances in

products exported to the European Union. This project

is done to allow exporters to comply with the terms of

the RoHS directive (Restrictions of the use of Certain

Hazardous Substances) which took effect on July 1st, 2006

and applies to all European countries. The IPT laboratory

was the first in Brazil to service and analyze all the

restricted substances under this commercial barrier.

The concern regarding toxic residues results in positive

aspects for the development of sustainability concepts

related to production processes. IPT’s action has also been

essential in order for industrial products to keep their

presence in the country’s trade balance which currently is

approximately 70% of total exports.

The policy’s restrictions cover the control of lead,

cadmium, hexavalent chromium, mercury, polybrominate

biphenyls (PBB) and polybrominate biphenyl ethers

(PBDE). For these substances and chemical elements, the

standard amount permitted must be less than 1,000 mg/

kg with the exception

of cadmium, for which the allowance is 100 mg/kg. These

parameters were determined due to the potential harm

to the health and well being of consumers and also to the

environment after product disposal.

Nanofibers for medication delivery

The substitution of pills for patches in the treatment of

some illnesses is already a reality but some big challenges

are yet to be overcome in the mechanism for controlled

release of the active drugs in this type of administration.

To solve this problem, researchers at the CTPP worked

in 2010 on a project for the preparation of nanofibers

to be applied and for the controlled release of active

ingredients for this new type medication use – and the

new scanning electron microscope (SEM) is playing a key

role in characterizing the thickness and morphology of the

materials.

Pollution emissions and reduction of environmental impact

A group of IPT professionals specialized in the study of

nitrogen oxide (Nox) emissions – basically nitrous oxide

(NO) and nitrogen dioxide (NO2) – completed a project

that measured these pollutants in their magnesium oxide

sinter furnace for the for the Magnesita manufacturing

branch in Brumado (Bahia), which produces refractory

materials from magnesite and talc mining activities. This

will be essential for allowing the company to make precise

decisions and to mitigate such emissions.

With the application of nanofibers, it is

possible to produce adhesive fabrics for

the application of medicine to the skin

more efficiently

The measurement of atmospheric pollutant emissions

in industrial combustion equipment, like furnaces and

boilers, together with the interpretations of results and

proposal of mitigation measures is a project underway for

several companies at the Laboratory for Thermal Energy,

Engines, Fuels and Emissions Laboratory (LETMCE) at

the Center for Environmental and Energy Technologies

(Cetae). A mobile unit is used for the project which is

specially designed for the installation, operation and

transportation of instruments. The vehicle is equipped with

instrumentation for the analysis of energy consumption

and the emission of pollutants in industrial combustion

and gasification equipment.

Use of starch in toilet paper

IPT is studying starch used in the suspension of cellulose

fibers that make sheets of paper. The Pulp and Paper

Laboratory (LPC) project, linked to the Center for Forest

Resource Technology (CT-Floresta), aims at evaluating the

resistance of manual paper made at the laboratory under

controlled conditions with the addition of polysaccharide

which is mainly corn and manioc extract. The choice of

starch for the study took into consideration the favorable

cost-benefit relation for industry due to its natural

abundance and ease of handling (compared to other

substances used for increasing paper durability) and also

for being a natural and biodegradable polymer.

Starch can either be used for making paper for printers/

writing or be added to tissue papers, like toilet paper and

disposable wipes, and for increasing mechanical durability

of the finished product. However, these two areas of

paper have specifically different properties. Paper used for

printing needs to be durable to avoid ripping pages when

under pulling force in a printer, for example; toilet paper

needs to be moisture resistant so it won’t break during

use and its structure needs to be soft to the touch.

Precision casting

The Metallurgy and Ceramic Materials Laboratory

(LMMC) at CTPP began studying a new procedure for

precision casting which can mean more economic and

agile development of parts on a reduced scale for vessel

component simulations at the Institute’s Center for Naval

and Ocean Engineering (C-Naval).

Researchers are working to substitute the traditional wax

model of parts cast in ceramic molds for resin models,

made by a rapid prototype machine. This machine,

actually a 3D printer, makes resin layered parts which are

designed in CAD.

The financial advantage of this substitution is the

elimination of the machined steel mold for making

the wax model, a component needed in the traditional

process. For small scale production, the new process also

enables the development of parts with complex shapes.

The parts to be produced are propellers with two or three

blades for vessel propulsion.

Cement for Pre-Salt

Teams at the Construction Materials Laboratory (LMCC),

linked to the Center for Infrastructure Construction

Technology (CT-Obras), and the Petrobras’ Américo Miguez

de Mello Center for Research and Development (Cenpes)

develop studies and simulations regarding the behavior

of cement mix under different marine conditions in the

pre-salt area. This is the project called “Hydration studies

and the characterization of class G Portland cement

mixes (used for cementing wells) submitted to different

conditions of exposure and curing”.

Through this study it will be possible to find the setting

conditions for cement mix in the presence of salts and

carbon gas, which are abundant in the pre-salt conditions

like those found in, for example, the huge Tupi field;

located 300 kilometers from the Santos Basin and at seven

kilometers deep, it contains high quality oil under a layer

of two-kilometer thick saline rock.

In this project, Cenpes formulates and simulates with

mixes and IPT analyses the information on performance

which is essential since this cement forms the well in

which the probe will be placed, attaching the offshore

platform to the oil and gas pocket. This cement mud

seals and gives structural stability to the well. This project

involves IPT capacities in the area of cement chemistry –

in which the institute excels – and geology.

Fuel storage

The Center for Fluid Metrology (CMF), which houses the

IPT wind tunnel, conducted a series of tests on the forces

of wind for the project on a new floating roof system for

fuel storage tanks for Transpetro, a Petrobras logistics and

fuel transport company. This new system, called Câmara

GB by Transpetro is built with a textile membrane and will

be the replacement for the current geodesic domes which

have aluminum structures designed to prevent water

infiltration in the tanks from rain and guarantee fuel quality

in addition to avoiding environmental contamination.

According to Transpetro’s estimates, the system will cost

only 2% of the amount of the dome and will have similar

efficiency with the added benefits of installation within

15 days – whereas the dome needs six to eight months

to be built – and durability for five to eight years. For the

system’s technological qualification, Transpetro hired IPT for

the purpose of executing a series of tests to simulate the

effects of wind on the membrane fabric.

Bridge testing in the wind tunnel

The new cable-stayed bridge under construction in the

northern part of São Paulo, which will link the road

Avenida do Estado to the Marginal Tietê road in the

direction towards Castello Branco highway, went through

a series of tests for evaluation of the structural effects due

to wind in the region. The tests were conducted at CMF’s

wind tunnel. The project focused on determining the

effects of wind on the sectional model of the bridge deck

since this is the structural element that is subject to the

greatest wind loads.

To make experimental analysis, a model was built,

instrumented and monitored on a scale of 1:50, by the

partner company for this test, called the Structural

Systems Laboratory (LSE). The model had, on a reduced

scale, the geometric shape, mass, rigidity and damping

of the prototype. In this way, in the wind tunnel the

deck is coupled to a set of springs and fixtures that

simulated these dynamic characteristics of the bridge

deck. The structural effects of the reduced model were

recorded by monitoring the force of lift, drag and the

acceleration of the deck, magnitudes measured with

load cells and accelerometers.

During the bridge test performed at IPT’s wind tunnel,

measurements were taken on a rigid model (static test)

and on an aeroelastic model (dynamic testing). In the first,

drag, lift and deck momentum coefficients were obtained.

In the dynamic tests lock-in velocity was determined as

well as the critical velocity of aerodynamic instability.

The largest bridge in construction in the city of

Constantine, Algeria, was also the object of study in the

IPT’s wind tunnel, which conducted a series of tests to

determine the effects of wind loads in a sectional model

on a scale of 1:50 of the Constantine Viaduct, which

extends 800 meters and displays a central span of 245

meters. This was the second project conducted by the

Institute on bridges in the city of Constantine: the first

took place in 2008, when a team from CT-Obras carried on

an evaluation of the bridge Sidi Rached.

Section model at the Constantine bridge, in

Algeria, underwent tests at IPT’s wind tunnel to

verify loads.

Reduction in fuel consumption

In June 2010, representatives from Braskem promoted at

the “2010 Honeywell Users Group Americas Symposium”

(Phoenix, USA), a project that IPT carried on in the boilers

at the Triunfo (RS) branch of the company and that

generated savings of US$ 300 thousand in one year.

Braskem’s boilers 2 and 3 are tangential fired; operate

with coal and gaseous effluents and liquids from the fuel

plant. This equipment was monitored by the Thermal

Energy, Engines, Fuels and Emissions Laboratory (LETMCE),

seeking to gather information for calculating the thermal

yield by direct and indirect methods.

The monitoring process, which lasted 15 days, included

supervising the boilers’ main operational variables using

IPT instrumentation and data from the equipment itself,

and the collection for laboratory analysis of fuel samples

and grey material that is removed from the bottom of the

furnaces, reservoirs, heat exchangers and electrostatic

precipitators. Eleven tests were conducted which varied

with the conditions of boiler operations. The report also

allowed observation of aspects related to the equipment

such as: atmospheric pollutant emissions, infiltration

of air for combustion and gas line environment in

addition to instrumentation and techniques employed

in measurement of coal leakage. From the methodology

of yield calculation developed by LETMCE a program was

configured that when attached to the boiler supervision

system (Honeywell), it enabled the obtained amounts

to be made available in real time for the operation team

allowing adjustment and consequent reduction in the

consumption of fuel.

Helicopter access to oil platforms

The research team at the IPT wind tunnel conducted a test

for Petrobras on offshore oil platforms that have increased

safety and operational effectiveness. The tests have been

conducted on models scaled at 1:150 or 1:120. The more

frequent tests are related to the safety on approach,

landing and take-off for helicopters on the platform’s

helipad and are divided into to two types: temperature

and velocity. In the first, the temperature field of the

plumes of hot gases produced by the platforms’ flare

lines since the hot air suddenly reduces the lift of the air

craft. In the second type, the air speed and the intensity

of its turbulence are measured. These measurements

are compared to defined limits and established by

technical standards.

Test accreditation for export products

After a technical audit by the National Institute of

Metrology, Standardization and Industrial Quality

(Inmetro), the Chemical Analyses Laboratory (LAQ) was

accredited in November. The accreditation allows the

laboratory to conduct, with Federal recognition, tests and

adjustments of Brazilian products for export under the

restrictions of the RoHS directive as well as determination

of phthalate plasticizers in PVC.

The Fuels and Lubricants Laboratory (LCL) had already

been recognized by Inmetro. With the new initiative,

IPT’s technical capabilities recognition has expanded. The

Institute earned a new qualification and the recognition of

technical competency and quality management system,

guaranteeing the monitoring of adequate measurement

standards for meeting the technical needs of the national

industry in a strategic area for international business,

particularly exporters of industrial products which must

comply with restrictive regulations contained in the RoHS

directive as well as the commercialization of toys, baby

products and party items.

The RoHS directive is the European standard that

places limits and restricts the use of products like lead,

cadmium, mercury and chromium - heavy metals - and

polybrominate flame retardants, due to the risk they pose

to the environment and human health. The accreditation

includes the procedures for quality analysis by fluorescent

X-ray, dispersive energy, preparation and testing of metals

by Atomic Emission Spectrometry (ICP-OES), Hexavalent

Chromium by UV-Visible spectrophotometry, as well as

preparation and testing of Phthalate Plasticizers in PVC.

PROJECTS FOR THE PUBLIC SECTOR

Urban trees in Brasília

In February 2010, IPT technicians implemented in Brasília

(DF) the Exemplary Tree Management System, a software

for survey management, registration of internal and

external defects and phytogeography organization of the

region’s trees. They also trained professionals at NOVACAP,

the Urbanization Campaign of the New Brazilian Capital,

the company responsible for forestation, maintenance

and urban infrastructure in Brazil’s capital.

Historical building evaluation

Throughout 2010, IPT worked in São Luiz do Paraitinga

(SP) with a team of multi-skill researchers, including

specialists in geology, civil engineering and wood. The

team instructed workers on structural shoring of the

city’s buildings that were more seriously compromised by

flooding from the Paraitinga River in early January 2010,

when waters rose 15 meters.

Researchers guided the structural supporting

work in buildings affected by floods in São Luiz do

Paraitinga

This project was completed to allow more secure

conditions in the buildings. The buildings received special

care because they were constructed with old techniques

like rammed earth. Funded by the Municipal Technological

Support Program (PATEM), from the Secretariat of

Economic Development, Science, and Technology, IPT’s

actions were carried on in partnership with the Council of

Defense of Historical, Archeological, Artistic, and Touristic

Heritage (CONDEPHAAT) of the State of São Paulo

Secretariat of Culture, which also coordinates restoration

projects. IPT geologists also conduct mapping of the areas

at risk of mud slides and flood plains.

Secure algorithm for public policy support

In July 2010, IPT worked on a housing lottery drawing in

Cuiabá (MT) for families with an income of up to three

minimum salaries, as part of the “My House, My Life”

Federal Government programs. The smoothness of the

process was ensured with an algorithm that the team

from the Center for Information Technology, Automation

45


and Mobility (CIAM) developed. Five hundred homes were

randomly selected from among 50 thousand registrants.

For this process, the same software developed for the

São Paulo tax coupon was used. The public algorithm

internationally recommended by NIST (the U.S. National

Institute of Standards and Technology) is the Advanced

Encryption Standard (AES), one of the best in the world for

random number distribution.

Risk management in Caraguatatuba

Throughout the year, IPT developed a management

plan for the areas at risk in Caraguatatuba, on the

northern coast of São Paulo state. Researchers from the

Environmental Risk Laboratory (Lara) reevaluated the risk

areas starting from results arising from the Municipal Risk

Reduction Plan, elaborated by the University of São Paulo

State (Unesp) in 2006.

IPT’s role was to guide the city’s technical team and

elaborate a management plan together, considering the

measures of structural (work and control) and non-

structural intervention, like occupation planning and

forming city civil defense teams.

The work of researchers was done from field work with

information reports on the risk level, legislation analysis,

master plan, identification of Permanent Conservation

Areas (PCAs) and other instruments that relate to

discussion of risk management.

Tax coupon quality

IPT was licensed by the National Agricultural Political

Council (CONFAZ) for conducting technical analysis

of thermo sensitive paper that is used for tax coupon

emission systems (ECF). The tests were conducted

on samples received from the paper manufacturers,

converters, or manufacturers of the machines that print

the thermal paper. The physical characteristics– such as

weight, thickness and smoothness – and the quality of

thermal printing were studied. Test were also conducted

for strength in thermal printing, involving variations in

temperature, humidity, effects of light beyond aesthetics,

PVC tape and water. The optical density of the print was

measured before and after execution of the tests.

This project was carried on by the Pulp and Paper

Laboratory (LPC). The license was possible thanks to the

acquisition of two pieces of equipment, provided through

the Institute’s modernization project: one is a printing

Study of the Santos Channel (SP)

The team from the Environmental Risk Laboratory (Lara),

of Cetae, conducted a study called “Geophysical survey of

the Santos channel” with a side-scanning and continuous

seismic profiling sonar. The goal was to provide

information for the consortium DragaBrasil, hired by the

Port Ministry to conduct dredging in the canal at the Port

of Santos allowing transit of ships with a larger draft. The

dredging in this area had its schedule compromised due to

physical barriers that made it difficult and even impeded

the advance of machines. The characteristics of the ocean

floor was mapped (floor and subfloor) in the external

portion of the Santos Canal in areas where dredging could

not proceed at an adequate pace. Approximately 110

linear kilometers of profiling was performed. With modern

instruments, geophysics allow the scanning of large

underwater stretches in short time intervals, offering an

excellent cost-benefit ratio in dredging projects.

Fixed highway radars

The team at Ciam provides technical support to the

State of São Paulo in large acquisitions of technology

products and services. An example in 2010 was the

State of São Paulo Department of Highways and Roads

which, after approving the item price of the fixed

radar systems offered by four companies, wanted to

purchase a product of better technology to meet the

public call demands. For this purpose, IPT developed test

methods and applied them on the selected equipment

to determine their performance. Technical knowledge is

an essential tool for enabling the public to obtain better

technology for its demands at a lower price. Procurement

law directs the issue of pricing, but in the case of smart

devices for traffic control using specific resources and

software, tests and trials on a real scale are necessary.

Government organizations need specialized assistance in

these acquisitions.

Chemistry kits for the state school system

Starting this year, high school chemistry teachers

in the São Paulo state school system can plan more

interesting classes based on practical experience. A

project coordinated by the Foundation for Educational

Development (FDE) and detailed within IPT in 2010 made

it possible for schools to receive 6,622 chemistry kits with

reagents and glassware, flasks for preparations and case

and packaging for transport. The project was developed

by the Chemical Analyses Laboratory (LAQ), from CMQ.

To enable the project, IPT specified and later conducted

quality control of the kits, setting up a multi-subject

project within the Institute which also had the help of

researchers from the packaging area.

Each set includes 31 items, with thermometer, beaker, vial,

test tubes, reagents, dropper, base and acid substances,

indicators, iron, aluminum and copper cylinders,

carbonates, sulfates among others, in a case that allows

teachers mobility within the school. The chemical and

physical characterization of the materials in each of

the items was completed according to specifications

developed previously by IPT researchers in conjunction

with the FDE.

Areas at risk in the city of São Paulo

The research team from Lara and Cetae concluded in 2010

the survey of risk areas in São Paulo, reaching a total of

407 mapped areas. The project was under contract of

the Secretariat of Regional Administration of São Paulo.

This total included the 205 areas mapped by IPT and Unesp

in 2003/2004 as well as another 90 areas mapped by the

Municipality of São Paulo itself between 2005 and 2009. The

407 areas are currently the most significantly vulnerable.

Management IPT’s 2010 Annual Report

Management

In 2010, IPT consolidated an administration model

implemented in 2008 in Information Technology, Human

Resources and Supplies. Administration is the key word

summarizing the action taken in these three areas, with a

structure geared to the essential processes of the Institute

and focused on the management of goals. The first phase

of the Cadac project, by FINEP, was completed. Steps

from the purchasing process were reduced. Moreover, the

structure of career researcher positions was defined and

required by a civil service selection process launched by

the end of 2010.

49


Human Resources

IPT’s Human Resources Coordination (CHR) consolidated

the performance model to meet the needs of the

Institute’s core activities. Highlighted actions include:

• Hiring of 62 new workers from the civil service selection

process held in 2008 and the inauguration of a new

selection process for 251 positions in 2011;

• Structure design of the researcher position, with the

support of Mercer consulting company. The position

and salary plan envisioned the creation of a competency

model for IPT professionals based in five qualifications:

knowledge of technology and its application, production

of knowledge, knowledge of the market, negotiation,

and projects management. The selection process

administered in 2011 expects the future researchers will

be selected based on these competencies;

• Hiring of 190 interns with education on the college,

professional education, and high school education

levels through a civil service selection process held each

semester in various professional areas;

• Integration events for new employees and interns,

including joint activities and visits to laboratories;

• Continue the International Development and Training

Equipment, including sun block and repellants.

51


• Accomplishment of projects focused on the quality of

life of workers, such as:

> Project IPT/Well being – nutrition, health and

quality of life. Developed in partnership with the

São Camillo University Center, this project evaluates

the nutritional condition of IPT employees using

anthropometrical data (weight, height, skin folds

and circumference), results of periodical medical

exams, eating habits, and physical activity, with 101

individual visits in 2010;

> Prevention and Early Diagnosis of Chronic Disease

Program, like hypertension, breast cancer, prostate,

diabetes, cholesterol, triglycerides and elevated uric

> Program for the eradication of dengue-carrying

mosquito concentrations on the Institute’s campus;

> Social Services Care: in 2010, approximately

250 cases of social support were offered to the

employees, with intervention related to health

insurance, hospital visits, interviews, follow-up with

those on leave due to diseases, and social-economic

evaluation of financial demands.

Processos informatizados

Definition of clear strategies for action and new tools in

the area of Information Technology – with consolidation

in the Corporate IT area, created in 2007 – and Supplies

also had a part in the Institute’s modernization process.

Throughout 2010, a highlight is the implementation of

the first step of the Cadac project, with a total forecast

investment of approximately R$ 1.6 million.

In this first step of the project, the Cadac hosting and

management rooms were physically restored, with

laminate floor, 75 kVA transformer tied to the network,

a diesel engine generator unit at 81 kVA, and a 25 kVA

no-break that takes on the supply of the system’s sensitive

part during automatic transmission from one source to

the other.

The project was developed in compliance with the current

policies is the establishment of redundancy levels in the

supply of electricity. When power is out from the primary

source, the generator takes over and in the event these

52


fail, the no-break is activated. The fourth level, underway,

will be given by the generator and transformer in building

48, at the Center for Chemical Metrology (CMQ), which

will be integrated to the system, thus guaranteeing

Cadac’s data security.

The room is totally climate controlled, with an air

conditioning system providing precision control of

temperature and humidity, which guarantees its

functionality without interruption, and an automatic fire

detection system.

Racks were set up in the Cadac room for the servers that

support the IPTNet, the cluster (set of high performance

servers) for running computer simulation programs

involving R&D projects and the pilot implementation of

the Electronic Document Management system - EDM.

Another important point is the acquisition by IPT of two

“Blade” type servers for starting consolidation of the

Institute’s servers enabling the creation of a virtualization

environment where several virtual machines with

their respective operational systems running within

a single physical server, allowing better efficiency and

management of existing computer resources.

The second phase of the project (in the final phase of the

tender process) will acquire a storage system that will

allow safe and centralized information storage alongside

with the automatic backup system.

Google system

IPT researchers now search the Institute’s collection of

documents through Google Search Appliance, which

is in operation at http://google.ipt.br. The system went

online after more than two months tracking the internal

database to facilitate the work of researchers and

technicians, mainly as it relates to gathering bibliographic

information that in general marks the first step in the

development of new projects.

The tool developed under the concept of knowledge

management facilitates the search for any document

generated at IPT through its metadata, if the project is

confidential or displays all the data in the case of public

documents. Approximately 800 thousand titles were

mapped from the Institute’s collection. If the user is

outside IPT, access can be granted via a VPN connection,

the same way the intranet content is accessed.

There are 16 categories of documents linked to Google

Search Appliance, such as test and calibration procedures,

certificates, technical opinions and technical reports,

among others. The contents from IPT’s website and library

can also be searched.

Supplies

The changes in the management of the Supplies

Coordination reduced the steps for requesting and

purchasing. Previously, 23 steps of approval were

necessary on paper and the same text needed to be

typed. The request for purchase transactions at IPT took

on average three weeks and it was possible to reduce

this process to eight essential steps to this process,

electronically. Approval can currently be obtained in up to

five hours with the available information for all the critical

sectors involved in the process.

A corporate wireless network was implemented along

with the installation of 40 access point devices distributed

through the Institute’s main buildings.

The Supplies Coordination adopted a plan of action

aiming mainly for the satisfaction of internal clients

by way of actions based on the needs of these clients

promoting changes in the area’s administration. These

actions stood out:

• Elaboration and implementation of Client Satisfaction

Research earning 88.7% satisfaction of internal clients;

• Announcement of approval times for purchase

requisitions and reduction of steps for these approvals;

• Announcement of the steps for purchase and reduction

in the execution time of the procurement process in up

to 20 days, in all the forms of procurement governed by

Law 8.666/93.

Another highlight is the amount of 2,193 purchases,

equivalent to approximately R$38.7 million, which

represents 11% of the budget originally proposed.

Innovation, culture and green chemistry

In 2010, IPT’s Innovation Office faced two real challenges.

The first was to develop the biomass gasification project

that, if successful, could pave the way for an innovative

“green chemistry”— more precisely, green and yellow. The

second is to foster innovative processes at IPT, including

the monitoring of innovation goals, and to encourage an

increase in the Institute’s knowledge production.

For the first time in its history IPT had innovation goals

to pursue in 2010. The results obtained show the level

of difficulty for advancement in each of these items:

the number of patents surpassed the goal; the number

of new tests entered in the quality system was well

beyond the goals, a result of the new instruments from

the Modernization Program resources; the number of

published papers did not meet its goal, but it increased

by 30%.

55

Innovation, culture and green chemistry IPT’s 2010 Annual Report

Throughout the year, the Innovation Office promoted

actions to stimulate innovative attitude among its

researchers. Many meetings were held for the discussion

of technological issues for the future, in addition to

communication that emphasized the need to produce

more innovation. This need was also translated into a

performance indicator, with which the technological

centers can be compared, enabling their evolution to be

assessed along the way. These actions directly reflect the

performance achieved in these indicators.

The registration of 190 new testing and calibration

procedures in the quality system signaled an important

valorization of the innovation IPT produces in metrology.

This fact reflects the introduction and installation of

a significant portion of equipment acquired with the

Moderniza resources, the program headed by the State

of São Paulo Government that handles IPT laboratory

infrastructure investments

One of the indicators was changed: increased research

and innovation at the Institute is best measured by the

percentage of revenue associated with such projects

than by the number of projects originally proposed.

The number measured in 2010, is still sensitive to the

calculation method, showing the economic impact of this

activity is much less that that associated to metrology and

technological services. The current indicator version shows

it as the most important between the current indicators

since it translates the main challenge proposed by IPT’

Advisory Board.

A fifth indicator was abandoned as a primary indicator:

the number of contracts with an intellectual property

clause. The concept is still valid with the need to spread

recognition of the value associated with creating

something new. IPT values this issue, having participated

in the Innovate São Paulo Project, which aims at

improving methods of characterization, assessment,

and commercialization of technology and patents in

cooperation with teams from the innovative technology

cells of seven São Paulo-based institutions. The setting

of numeric goals for the indicator, however, conflicted

with the profile of R&D project amounts at the Institute,

which lead to a smaller number of projects, yet with

greater value. The indicator remains, however, as a form of

internal management control.

Innovation, culture and green chemistry PT’s 2010 Annual Report

An additional indicator of innovation is under

construction. It is related to the testing procedures

that are developed for executing technological service

and research projects. This is an innovative aspect that

needs more transparency, considering that IPT is often

demanded into creating new tests – its technical team

capable and experienced with this type of challenge – to

measure certain characteristics that are not included in

international standards and are specific to a particular

application. The establishment of a methodology is

underway for registering these new tests in order to make

them part of the Institute’s technical culture.

A benchmark for innovation effort took place in 2010

with the identification of research institutes with

profiles similar to IPT’s. The innovation indicators were

analyzed from institutions in different countries including

Australia’s CSIRO (Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial

Research Organization) and the South African CSIR

(Council for Scientific and Industrial Research). The results

show that IPT is headed in the right direction to become

more innovative yet with real challenges to overcome.

Two significant IPT innovation projects began in 2010,

based on BNDES’ Funtec program resources: new pyro-

metallurgical production routes solar grade silicon

and the study of alternatives for recuperation of areas

contaminated by organochlorine chemicals. These

projects are marked by multidisciplinarity, an IPT icon in

the search for innovation and of a new scale of research

projects in the R$ 10 million range.

The R&D project which resulted in more revenues in

2010 aimed to develop software for online integration

of information generated by smart equipment systems

applied along highways (call box, traffic sensors, variable

message panels, and meteorological stations, among

others) installed on privatized highways. In addition, the

system integrates maps of events taking place in these

roads with actions taken by the contractor. Furthermore,

the system allow the triggering of alarms and alerts

regarding road conditions and the ITS (Intelligent

Transportation System) equipment for the São Paulo State

Transportation Delegation Public Services Regulatory

Agency (Artesp). This system with allow Artesp to better

control and monitor, in real time, operation of highways by

contractors enabling quicker action by the Agency.

The effort to increase IPT’s internationalization was

marked by the initiation of two projects in cooperation

with foreign institutions in the context of the European

Union’s main instrument for research funding, the FP7

The number of technical papers made by

IPT grew 30% in 2010

(Framework Programme 7): the “MyFire” project, which

brings together institutions from seven countries to

encourage the use of experimental test procedures of

new applications that are being developed for the internet

of the future, and the “Viajeo” project, which aims to

develop and demonstrate efficient tools for using traffic

and transportation information in real time and involves

institutions from eight countries.

IPT’s biomass gasification project was restructured in

2010 to comply with the budget restrictions requested

by BNDES. Throughout this process, which included

visits to pilot plants in Sweden (Värnamo) and Germany

(Siemens and Choren), a new route for gasification was

adopted based on the process known as entrained flow,

which in one hand has the potential success of being the

more economically viable route and on the other hand

comes with the challenge of building a reactor based

on innovative technology, never before done in Brazil. A

new proposal was made based on creative and articulate

action on the national level. In other words, its success

depends not only on IPT but also on the action of the

greatest minds in the country in this field: researchers

involved in the National Fuel Network at the Science

and Technology Ministry (MCT). As the costs of the

project are in the range of R$80 million in five years, it

was necessary to combine resources from BNDES, FINEP,

the Secretariat of Economic Development, Science, and

Technology of the State of São Paulo and four national

companies: Cosan, Brasken, Oxiteno and Petrobras. The

project implementation will directly involve four research

institutions: CTC (Sugarcane Technology Center), CTBE

(Center for Bioethanol Technology), Esalq (the University

of São Paulo’s Luiz de Queiroz Agriculture School), and IPT,

in addition to those who take part in the science projects

to be negotiated.

This is an engineering challenge that aims to design,

build, and operate a biomass gasification pilot plant. The

product of this gasification will be a biogas which could

be used to generate electricity, produce biofuels and

biopolymers – the so-called green chemistry.

The synthesis gas produced from sugar

cane bagasse, straw, and wood splinters

can be used to generate electric power,

produce biofuels and biopolymers: power

International Development and Training Program (PDCE) PT’s 2010 Annual Report


IPT’s International Development and Training Program

(PDCE) was launched in 2008 and is funded by the IPT

Foundation (FIPT). PDCE’s goal is to send the Institute’s

researchers and technicians abroad for improvement

in their fields of work and research interest. Until 2010,

25 researchers from different areas developed research

and scientific projects during periods from four to eight

months in ten different countries, bringing back to the

State of São Paulo the most advanced technological

knowledge in the world.

FIPT provides financial support for the cost of training,

courses and internships, based on the references of CNPq

and Capes, and with the travel expenses for researchers

and their dependants, including lodging assistance,

health insurance and arrival assistance in order to

offer more quality of life, security and commitment

for the accomplishment of the researcher’s tasks. The

employment agreement is preserved, guaranteeing the

researcher’s monthly salary and other benefits

established by law.

61

The PDCE participant contributes even more to improve

IPT’s installed and applied capabilities in order to improve

the continued quality of processes, products and projects

as well as with the acquisition of new abilities not yet

available. The international contacts established also

promote the international insertion of the Institute and

the technical cooperation with foreign cutting-edge

institutions around the globe.

To participate in the program, the candidate needs to

demonstrate interest and indicate the research to be

produced to the director responsible for the technological

center of origin. Once this step is completed, the approved

project is forwarded to the Chief Operations Officer.

If viable, the proposal is sent to the Human Resources

Coordination (CRH) and to the International Relations

Sector at the Corporate Relations Management (GRC),

which will conclude the details of the trip – visas, air

tickets, and contacts with the host institution abroad,

among others.

Until 2010, PDCE participants were sent to the following

institutions:

• Germany: Fraunhofer Institutes (ICT, IZFP), Werth,

Martin-Luther-Universität, Physikalish-Technische

Bundesanstalt (PTB), GeoForschungsZentrum (GFZ)

• Spain: Biological Investigations Center (CIB)

• USA: National Institute of Standards and Technology

(NIST), Michigan Technological University, University of

Colorado/Boulder, U.S. Geological Survey (USGS)

Corporate and Institutional Relations

In May 2010, IPT received the visit from Dominique

Strauss-Kahn, former Managing Director of the

International Monetary Fund (IMF). Strauss-Kahn

visited the IPT’s Center for Naval and Ocean Engineering

(C-Naval), which months before received R$9.5 million in

investments for new facilities.

During his speech, Strauss-Kahn spoke about the

importance of technology innovation for economic

development and competitiveness. The former IMF

Managing Director was received by then Governor of the

State of São Paulo, Alberto Goldman, who emphasized

state investments in science and technology. During the

visit, IPT’s advances in the biotechnology and bioenergy

areas were also highlighted. The IMF visit was an

opportunity for the Institute to present its work to the

international community.

63

The Governor of the State of São Paulo

While visiting IPT on December 16th, 2010, the then

Governor of the State of São Paulo, Alberto Goldman,

inaugurated new facilities like the construction of

the bionanomanufacturing building and the Oil Flow

Metrology Laboratory, and announced an investment

of R$ 50 million in IPT in 2011, in continuation to the

Institute’s modernization program.

This was the third opportunity in which the Governor

visited IPT in 2010. In May he visited the IPT campus

to inaugurate the new electromagnetic compatibility

chamber, used in research to avoid interference between

electronics like TVs, radios, cell phones, computers, and

electronic medical systems, among others.

Biomass Gasification Pilot Plant

The former State of São Paulo Secretary of Development,

Luciano de Almeida, announced in December 2010 the

approval of the first phase of the Biomass Gasification

Development Center project (CDGB), at the Piracicaba

(SP) Technology Park, which shall receive R$ 80 million in

investments through a partnership between IPT, FINEP

and BNDES.

The center will house an 80-thousand square meter area

and a pilot plant for the development of technology

for sugarcane bagasse gasification; an example of

the technology race that plays out in other countries

for consolidating this process, only with different raw

materials like corn stalk and coal. Gasification is currently

important because its technology is seen as a greenhouse

gas emission reduction tool and also because it is a

technology that will increase productivity in sugar cane

plantation areas

Message to shareholders

In 2010, IPT consolidated a cycle of three years of

investments with the application of R$ 120 million from

the State of São Paulo Government and partners in a

more modern structure to face challenges in the country’s

development. The new technology base promotes a

transformation in the Institute’s role, which increasingly

inserts itself in the society as a creator of innovation,

enabling the application of technological knowledge in

businesses.

IPT’s new laboratory capabilities aim at producing

solutions focused on sustainable development, covering

bionanotechnology, renewable energy, highly efficient

energy materials and infrastructure projects with

lower environmental impact. New laboratories such as

bionanomanufacturing, naval, corrosion, light structures

and oil flow metrology, among others, now provide

support in order for the Institute to develop research and

services of greater added value.

The mobilization surrounding IPT modernization involves

human resources, procedures and equipment. The human

aspect is essential to this transformation. In 2010, 80 new

employees were hired through a civil service selection

process in 2008 – considering the 140 in 2009; the

Institute has 220 new employees. And in 2011 it will hold a

new selection process to qualify another 250 professionals.

Another important aspect of research valorization is the


which, in 2010, sent 13 more researchers to complete

training programs in IPT partner institutes abroad, such

as Fraunhofer in Germany, Imperial College in the United

Kingdom, the U.S. Geological Survey, and VTT in Finland.

These researchers join 13 others that participated in the

Program in 2009 and 2008, forming a group of 25 people

trained abroad until 2010.

Last year, IPT served 3.5 thousand companies, the larger

part of them small and medium organizations. In terms of

institutional production results in 2010, 26,794 technical

documents were issued including calibration and

compliance certificates, reference material certificates,

technical advice, technical references, and technological

service reports, among others. The Institute filed six

invention patents in Brazil and one abroad. The scientific

production of the staff resulted in 194 national and

international published papers, along with journal and

event papers. IPT’s income increased 10% compared to

2009, with special focus on R&D projects and with the

generation of intellectual property.

In 2011, IPT began operation of the investments made

over the last three years. This year will also mark the

advance of the modernization project which relies mainly

on State of São Paulo Government resources (R$50

million), FINEP and BNDES.

The modernization project is an unprecedented milestone

in IPT’s history.

initial acknowledgement. Measured at fair value through

the result – These are financial assets kept for active and

frequent negotiation. Assets of this category are classified

as circulating assets. Gains or losses coming from

variations in the fair value of financial assets measured at

fair value through the result are presented in the results

disclosure in the notation “Financial Revenues” in the

period when they occur. Profit from financial applications

respective to bound credits are recorded in account for
