Development of tea from longan peels and seeds

Development of tea from longan peels and seeds

Abstract

This research aimed to develop the mixed tea from longan peels and seeds. Population studied were longan farmers who planted longan and preserved the longan product in Ampur Wang Nam Yen, Sa Kaeo Province. From the results, it was found that from By-product in the production of dehydrated longan, longan peels and seeds, which can be processed into ready-to-drink powdered tea. This not only helps reduce waste from the production process but also contributes to generating additional income from these by-products.

Objective

จากการได้เข้าไปศึกษาดูงานที่ ชุมชนเกษตรกรผู้ปลูกลำไย อำเภอวังน้ำเย็น จังหวัดสระแก้ว ได้พบปัญหาคือราคาลำไยตกต่ำ ขายแล้วขาดทุน ส่งผลให้เกษตรกรได้แก้ปัญหา ด้วยการนำลำไยไปทำลำไยอบแห้ง ซึ่งจากกระบวนการผลิตลำไยอบแห้ง จะมีผลิตภัณฑ์ผลพลอยได้คือเปลือกและเมล็ดลำไย ซึ่งสามารถนำมาแปรรูปเป็นชาผงสำเร็จรูปพร้อมดื่มได้

Innovation in commercial vertical set of golden apple snails as environmentally friendly using an aquaponics system

The innovation of the vertical aquaponics system for rearing golden apple snails integrating with vegetable cultivation by using substrates to water treatment. The system aims to maximize the use of vertical space, save water, and produce safe vegetables for consumption or commercial purposes, and to support living things. The golden apple snail excretes wastes/leftover food scraps that are filtered on the substrates used for water treatment. Meanwhile, natural bacteria help change these wastes into nutrients that plants can use. Therefore, the system is environmentally friendly.

This project aims to study the load transfer in timber building structures by analyzing weight distribution across key structural components such as beams, columns, and floors, as well as the load-bearing behavior of wood under different conditions. The research incorporates structural calculations and modeling to examine load transfer patterns. Additionally, it enhances skills in design, analysis, and teamwork, providing practical knowledge applicable to real-world construction projects.
