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 railway brake system usually uses compressed air brake system which uses high-pressure air to press the brake shoe on the surface of the wheel to reduce the speed of the train. Repeated friction generates heat at the contact surface, increasing thermal stress on the cast iron brake shoe. The purpose of this study is to investigate the thermal stress on a prototype of cast iron brake shoe using the finite element method compare the analytical results to the actual brake shoe and redesign a brake shoe prototype to reduce thermal stress. Based on the results of the thermal stress study using the finite element method, it has shown that the location of the thermal stress on the prototype brake shoe according to the location of the crack on the real brake shoe. The brake shoe's design which includes single notch in the center of brake shoe which is can help to reduce thermal stress. The results from this study should be validated with the results from the field test to evaluate both of thermal distribution and braking efficiency in term of braking distances as well.

The designing of mosquitoes counting system instrument is presented in this work. The mosquitoes that were counted died in order not to measure duplicate counting data. As soon as the input source counting machine can detect the mosquito, the single trigger signal is transmitted to the IOT system to interrupt the server immediately. The number of real mosquito is not transmitting to the IOT but only a signal to interrupt the server. The server records the number of the interrupt signal with real-time clock. Then the interrupt information will be further handled. The front end counting machine consist of the high voltage generate with the suitable voltage value and electrode distance for the required mosquitoes size. The low trigger pulse signals of the mosquitoes killed by high voltage are sending to the controller unit. Immediately, interrupt counting signal of the number of mosquitoes is sent to the big stream data collection on IOT system by the time stamp technique. Form the measurement results, 10 live sample mosquitoes in a limited space box to fly though the counting machine show that the count results are 100% correct count.

From the current situation and uncertainty; leads to the concept of food security. It is the application of innovation and technology to create high productivity in a limited area. The unused buildings in urban areas were renovated for planting, created as a learning area for planting in urban area. The different methods of growing plants were presented. There are 35 planting innovations for disseminating knowledge, to create food security, self-reliant, supports sustainable living.
