Dream High Packaging Protection from Mycelium

Abstract

In a world increasingly focused on sustainability and reducing environmental impact, DreamHigh is pioneering an innovative approach to packaging solutions using mycelium—a natural, biodegradable, and renewable material derived from fungi. Our mission is to revolutionize the packaging industry by offering eco-friendly alternatives that not only reduce waste but also align with global efforts to combat climate change. Mycelium packaging offers a compelling alternative to traditional plastic and Styrofoam packaging, which contribute significantly to environmental pollution. It is fully biodegradable, compostable, and capable of breaking down in natural environments within weeks, leaving no toxic residues behind. Additionally, mycelium-based products are lightweight, durable, and customizable, making them suitable for a wide range of applications, from consumer goods packaging to protective shipping materials. DreamHigh’s business plan outlines a scalable production process leveraging advanced mycelium cultivation techniques and partnerships with local agricultural sectors to utilize agricultural waste as a key raw material. This not only ensures cost-efficiency but also supports a circular economy by repurposing waste that would otherwise be discarded.

Objective

เนื่องจากเราเล็งเห็นถึงปัญหาของการทิ้งโฟมหรือพลาสติกกันกระแทก ที่ใช้เวลาในการย่อยสลายนาน เราจึงนำตัวไมซีเลียมที่ใช้เวลาย่อยสลายไม่นานอีกทั้งยังเป็นมิตรต่อธรรมชาติ

Self Doubt

A Photographic series that expresses the abstract states of myself, towards the question of existence that results from being surrounded by expectations of both surrender and freedom of expression, this series focuses on my own subjectivities in order to bring back memories of almost forgotten feelings and make them clear once more.

Study on the Efficiency of Lime in Increasing Alkalinity in White Shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) Culture

This study aimed to investigate the efficacy of lime containing more than 50% calcium oxide and not less than 29% magnesium oxide in enhancing water alkalinity for Pacific White Shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) aquaculture. The experiment was conducted at concentrations of 0, 5, 10, 15, and 20 ppm over a 48-hour period, with data collected at 0, 3, 6, 12, 24, 36, and 48 hours. Results demonstrated that lime exhibited high dissolution efficiency (65-86%) within the first hour and reached complete dissolution (98.5-98.6%) within 6 hours. The pH values initially increased proportionally with lime concentration, gradually decreased during 3-12 hours, before stabilizing. Total alkalinity showed significant increase during the first 3-6 hours and remained stable until the end of the experiment. Statistical analysis revealed that both concentration and time significantly affected all parameters (p < 0.001)
