This research aims to investigate the adulteration of Khao Dawk Mali 105 rice based on storage age using Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS) with Fourier Transform Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-NIR) in the wavenumber range of 12,500 – 4,000 cm-1 (800 – 2,500 nm). Storage duration significantly impacts the quality of cooked rice. This research is divided into two parts: 1) to investigate the feasibility of separating rice according to storage age (1, 2, and 3 years) using the best model created by an Ensemble method combined with Second Derivative, which achieved an accuracy of 96.3%. 2) To investigate adulteration based on storage age by adulterating at 0% (all 2- and 3-year-old rice), 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, 90%, and 100% (all 1-year-old rice). The best model was created using Gaussian Process Regression (GPR) combined with Smoothing + Multiplicative Scatter Correction (MSC), with coefficients of determination (r²), root mean square error of prediction (RMSEP), bias, and prediction ability (RPD) values of 0.92, 8.6%, 0.9%, and 3.6 respectively. This demonstrates that the adulteration model can be applied to separate rice by storage age (1, 2, and 3 years). Additionally, the color values of rice with different storage ages show differences in L* and b* values.

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.
