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)

THE DEVELOPMENT OF WASTE SLAG DRAINAGE FLOORING MATERIALS

The objective of this research is to utilize waste slag in industrial applications and help mitigate flooding, water accumulation, and ponding issues. Currently, slag from the steel smelting or refining process is commonly used as a component in construction materials, such as road surfaces. However, slag has properties that make it difficult for water to permeate, leading to poor drainage and increased flooding problems. This study focuses on improving the properties of pavement materials to enhance their strength and water permeability. This can be achieved through physical structural modifications or the addition of chemical agents such as HPMC, which increases void spaces to facilitate water absorption and drainage according to required standards. The utilization of waste slag not only helps reduce production costs and improve material performance but also minimizes environmental impacts and promotes the sustainable use of resources.

Hacking the Show: QoP and Log Data Analyses of Interactive Concert Experiences

This work attempts to spark conversations about the technical and creative aspects of participatory concert settings. It features the results of two interactive research concerts on basis of audience participation quantities, motion analysis and log data clustering. Ultimately, it poses questions how participatory work can help when teaching interactive technology for the arts and beyond.

Fire retardant

The purpose of this invention is to develop a forest fire prevention agent that has the ability to prevent long-term forest fires, not only to suppress forest fires or prevent forest fires from spreading widely, but to prevent them from starting to catch fire from the beginning. It can prevent forest fires comprehensively and can be prevented for a long time during the peak forest fire period or the dry season, which is about 3-4 months. There are no residues or minimal residues without causing harm to the surrounding environment under the specified standards. Emphasis is placed on the use of raw materials, equipment, and chemicals that can be easily found in Thailand. This includes using the value of production costs as low as possible. This makes it suitable for use in large quantities for spraying and protecting forest areas in forest areas that are prone to fire. Estimated average for pollution caused by forest fires include particulate matter (PM), including PM2.5, PM10, carbon monoxide (CO), carbon dioxide, carbon dioxide, and carbon dioxide, Nitrogendioxide, VOC etc.
