During the recent years, PM2.5 concentration is rising above the safety exposure limit in Thailand. PM2.5 could have originated from various sources such as exhaust fumes, open air burning, wildfire, etc. This concludes that all cities or places would have different PM source contributions. Most studies regarding the PM source findings were done based on chemical analysis. Our research team would like to predict the PM sources physically by nanostructures analysis. These methods would require the PM dust to be collected in a limited amount of time and dry. The use of paper filters may cause contamination from filter material which may cause errors in result evaluation. Our team suggests using Electrostatic Precipitator (ESP) where electrostatics is used to capture PM dust. This research mainly focuses on designing and building the ESP system for PM collection whereas the requirement is to collect at least 100 mg of PM dust within 1 day which would be adequate for nanostructure analysis. The study revealed that the customized ESP system could achieve of up to 80% collecting efficiency (which is more than the commercial ESP that we previously used), there’s a also a parametric study of relationships between flow velocity and collecting efficiency where collecting efficiency is inversely proportional to flow velocity. The suggested air velocity is not to exceed 2 m/s. However, there’re still more room for improvement of the ESP system for PM collection such as the convenience of PM collection process which resulted from the ESP construction geometry and sizes.
มลพิษทางอากาศนั้นส่งผลกระทบโดยตรงต่อสิ่งแวดล้อมและสุขภาพของสิ่งมีชีวิตทั้งในระยะสั้นและระยะยาว มลพิษทางอากาศนั้นสามารถจำแนกได้เป็นหลายกลุ่ม นั่นคือ มลพิษในรูปแบบสถานะแก๊ส ได้แก่ แก๊สโอโซน แก๊สไนโตรเจนออกไซค์ เป็นต้น และ มลพิษในรูปแบบของแข็ง ได้แก่ ฝุ่นละอองต่างๆ ซึ่งจะถูกจำแนกด้วยขนาดเป็นหลัก ในที่นี้ ฝุ่นละอองขนาดเล็ก (Particulate Matter) ตัวย่อ “PM” จะเป็นประเด็นสำคัญของงานวิจัยนี้เนื่องด้วยในปัจจุบัน สถานการณ์ฝุ่น PM2.5 ใน ประเทศไทยโดยเฉพาะภาคกลางและภาคเหนือ มีแนวโน้มที่จะรุนแรงขึ้นในฤดูหนาวของทุกปี

This project is a carbon safe haven of Bangkok, aspiring to be the prototypal gateway of the future's carbon net zero ambitions. The project aims to answer the fundamental "flaw" of the existing urban fabric, still being extremely inefficient and highly polluting. Conversely, Carbon Oasis would not only create its own energy, but look to provide its excess energy and water surplus' back to the city and its surroundings. Taking parts of the existing city and implementing new concepts to inspire a change in the urban fabric and its people.

Spent coffee grounds (SCGs) are waste from coffee drink process, which are rich of a varieties of nutrients. This research applied SCGs as ingredient in cracker. The optimized formula and process are studied as well as addition of different levels of SCGs were studied. It was found that addition of SCGs in cracker had hedonic score in high level from panels, especially panels who drink coffee. Moreover, it was observed that SCGs could increase nutrients especially carbohydrate and fiber to the product.
