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)

Air pollution, particularly PM2.5, is a major environmental and public health concern in Bangkok. Instead of predicting PM2.5 levels, this project aims to identify the most significant factors influencing PM2.5 concentration. By analyzing historical air quality, weather, and other environmental data, we will determine which variables—such as temperature, humidity, wind speed, or other pollutants—have the greatest impact on PM2.5 fluctuations.

Koh Tao, a picturesque island in Thailand, is famous for its breathtaking coral reefs and vibrant marine life, attracting diving enthusiasts from all over the world. Despite its natural beauty, the island currently lacks innovative accommodations that enhance the visitor experience and promote environmental sustainability. This project proposes the development of a unique four-star floating resort with underwater villas, designed to offer an extraordinary lodging experience that fosters a deeper connection with the marine environment. By incorporating sustainable practices into the resort's design and operations, the project addresses the growing demand for eco-friendly tourism in the region. The floating resort concept aims not only to provide guests with an immersive experience but also to raise awareness about marine conservation. Through eco-friendly design and operations, the resort seeks to set a benchmark for sustainable tourism in Koh Tao, showcasing how accommodations can align with environmental stewardship, benefiting both the local ecosystem and tourism.
