Durian Web-based Learning Hub: Online Durian Farming Learning Platform

Durian Web-based Learning Hub: Online Durian Farming Learning Platform

Abstract

Efficient durian orchard development requires integrating knowledge, technology, and innovation from farmers and academics to cope with environmental changes and market demands. The Durian Web-based Learning Hub is an online learning platform developed to serve as a central hub for knowledge transfer from experts and as a space for experience exchange among farmers. Users can access learning resources conveniently and continuously. This platform is part of the Innovation Project for Production and Marketing Information Management Innovation for Enhancing the Quality of Durian Production Entering into Premium Markets, supported by the Program Management Unit for Area-Based Development (PMUA)

Objective

การทำสวนทุเรียนในปัจจุบันเผชิญกับความท้าทายหลายด้าน ทั้งการเปลี่ยนแปลงสภาพภูมิอากาศ โรคและแมลงศัตรูพืชชนิดใหม่ และความต้องการของตลาดที่เปลี่ยนแปลงอย่างรวดเร็ว ในขณะที่องค์ความรู้และประสบการณ์ที่มีค่าของเกษตรกรและผู้เชี่ยวชาญกระจายอยู่ในหลายพื้นที่ การเข้าถึงข้อมูลและการแลกเปลี่ยนประสบการณ์แบบดั้งเดิมมีข้อจำกัดด้านเวลาและระยะทาง จึงจำเป็นต้องพัฒนาแพลตฟอร์มการเรียนรู้ออนไลน์ที่จะเชื่อมโยงผู้คนในวงการทุเรียนเข้าด้วยกัน เพื่อสร้างชุมชนแห่งการเรียนรู้ที่เข้มแข็งและยั่งยืน

Garbage sorting Systems

The presented project topic is Garbage Sorting Systems. The purpose is to study the operation and develop a waste sorting system that can automatically detect the type of waste using a proximity sensor to separate the types of metal and non-metal waste, as well as an ultrasonic sensor to check the amount of waste in the bin. If the amount of waste exceeds the specified amount, the system will send a notification to the communication device connected to the system, such as a smartphone or computer. The operation of the system is designed to increase the efficiency of waste management, reduce the burden of manual waste sorting, and promote recycling. This system can be applied in various places, such as educational institutions or public places, to help reduce the amount of waste that is not properly separated and increase the opportunity to reuse waste.

Development of alginate hydrogel/carrageenan/gellan gum based composited material and their application as oral delivery carriers.

Development of alginate hydrogel/carrageenan/gellan gum based composited material and their application as oral delivery carriers.

This study aims to develop alginate-based hydrogels reinforced with carrageenan and gellan gum as composite materials for oral drug delivery. Alginate, a naturally derived polymer from brown algae, forms a gel upon exposure to cations such as calcium ions, enhancing the hydrogel’s structural integrity. Carrageenan and gellan gum, both polysaccharides, further improve stability and encapsulation efficiency. This research investigates the physical properties, mechanical strength, encapsulation capacity, and swelling behavior of hydrogel beads under simulated gastrointestinal conditions. The findings are expected to demonstrate that incorporating carrageenan and gellan gum enhances the durability and stability of hydrogel beads while enabling controlled release of active compounds in the gastrointestinal tract. These advanced hydrogel beads hold significant potential for applications in the food and pharmaceutical industries as effective oral delivery systems for bioactive substances.
