Designed Quality coffee from fermentation

Designed Quality coffee from fermentation

Abstract

Coffee is a critical agricultural commodity to be used to produce a premium beverage to serve people worldwide. Coffee microbiome turned to be an essential tool to improve the bean quality through the natural fermentation. Therefore, understanding the microbial diversities could create the final product's better quality. This study investigated the natural microbial consortium during the wet process fermentation of coffee onsite in Thailand to characterize the microorganisms involved in correlation toward the biochemical characteristics and metabolic attributes. Roasting is another important step in developing the complex flavor/ aroma that make coffee to be enjoyable. During the roasting process, the beans undergo many complex and alternatively change in the physicochemical properties from the gained substances in the fermentation process. The changing in the formation of the substances responsible for the sensory qualities, physicochemical/ aroma attributes as well as the health benefits of the final product. Using the starter culture could also develop the distinguished characteristics of coffee (Research collaboration with Van Hart company)

Organic fertilizer products from horse manure

This research aims to study the waste management process of horse manure, the production process of organic fertilizer from horse waste, and opinions on the use of innovative organic fertilizer from horse manure. A mixed-method approach, combining qualitative and quantitative research, is employed. The organic fertilizer is produced from horse manure, which is a waste that incurs disposal costs. Through the fermentation process, it is transformed into an environmentally friendly fertilizer containing essential nutrients beneficial to plants. According to the laboratory analysis of the organic fertilizer conducted by the Soil Science Laboratory, Faculty of Agricultural Technology, King Mongkut's Institute of Technology Ladkrabang, it was found that organic fertilizer from horse manure contains essential nutrients for plant growth, including macronutrients, secondary nutrients, and micronutrients. This reflects the potential of horse waste management, the production process of organic fertilizer from horse manure, the efficiency of the organic fertilizer, and strategies for adding value to expand its commercialization.

Application of Machine Learning, Stochastic Process, and Game Theory in Short-Term Financial Asset Investment Strategies

This project focuses on the study and development of a short-term investment framework via gold trading in the foreign exchange market. Machine learning techniques are applied to analyze and forecast pricing trends. Moreover, we develop the system using a stochastic process to determine optimal stop-loss points, with the aim of maximizing expected returns. Additionally, we apply game theory to guide the decision-making process regarding order holding or closure. The system is implemented and tested on the MetaTrader 5 (MT5) platform. This project outlined the clear process that includes data preparation, machine learning model training, probabilistic modeling of gold price movements, stop-loss strategy formulation, strategic decision modeling based on game theory, the development of an automated trading program, and backtesting to evaluate system performance.

Self Doubt

A Photographic series that expresses the abstract states of myself, towards the question of existence that results from being surrounded by expectations of both surrender and freedom of expression, this series focuses on my own subjectivities in order to bring back memories of almost forgotten feelings and make them clear once more.
