RAW MATERIAL & MARKET POWER

The raw-materials potential in Brazil

Brazil may be one of the largest oil producers in the world.

Between 2013-2014 there was an increase of 230,000 bpd (11%).

With monthly growth, the Pre-salt has increased its share of national production, rising from 27% to 29%.

Gas production will triple by 2030.

The production of natural gas in January 2015 was the largest ever recorded, when reached 96.6 million cubic meters.

The raw-materials potential in Brazil

Brazil has the greatest biodiversity in the world, favoring the production of chemicals from renewable raw materials.

On May 2015, the New Brazilian Biodiversity Law was enacted.

Minerals: ex. quartz and rare earths

Market Power

9.7% share of

EDUCATION, RESEARCH & INNOVATION CONTEXT

Education

• In the last two decades the number of undergraduate students grew 550%, at the same time that the Brazilian population grew 25%.

• 40 thousand engineers graduate in Brazil per year.

• The chemical sector, specifically, is not labor intensive, but requires a higher level of training, which gives a wage, on average, 75% greater than the overall industry.

• Science without Borders: over US$ 2.9 billion BSc, MSc, Dr., PhD, up to full professors on exact sciences and engineering.

• PRONATEC: over US$ 260 million investment on technical level.

Research

• Brazil figures in the 13th position on scientific publication.

• From 2008 to 2010, 56% of the Latin American scientific articles were Brazilian.

• In the last 10 years, the average rate of development of scientific articles in Brazil is 8%/ year.

• The main areas of publications are: agricultures, chemistry, physics, engineering, molecular biology and biochemistry.

• 35% of Brazilian researchers are working in the business sector.

Innovation

• Brazil invests 1.3% of GDP in R&D.

• The goal of the Brazilian Government is to reach 2% of GDP by 2020.

• Developed economies have rates above 3% of GDP.

• The Brazilian Development Bank (BNDES) and the Brazilian Innovation Agency (FINEP) offers credit and grants for R&I

Brazilian Research Corporation on Industrial Innovation EMBRAPII

Biotech World Market

Global market for renewable chemicals is expected to grow from US$ 3.6 billion to over US$ 12 billion by 2020.

It is estimated that by 2025 ~40% of the world economy will be based on biotechnology.

BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES EMPLOYED TO OBTAIN

PRODUCTS AND/OR PROCESSES

Brazil is an agricultural powerhouse

• Among the world’s top producers and exporters of sugar, ethanol biofuel, orange juice, coffee, soybeans, beef, poultry, pork, tobacco and forest products.

• New agricultural frontiers being opened up for agricultural development, putting Brazil at the cutting edge of innovation, research and development in agricultural techniques, technologies and productivity gains.

• Sustainable agriculture: Brazil has the lowest carbon emissions among the world’s largest agricultural players.

Biobased chemistry

• Offers very competitive feedstock prices in low eco footprint conditions, it has plenty of land and suitable climate.

• Dominates the biomass with greater potential today: sugar-cane.

• Has training in the development and management of biomass production: EMBRAPA.

• Has experience in the production and distribution of biofuels on a large scale.

• It is the country with the highest biodiversity in the world.

• Has fast-track for patent analysis on green technologies.
