Energy storage system for solar cells by using graphene quantum dot battery

Abstract

This project aims to investigate and develop an energy storage system utilizing solar energy sources through the integration of solar cell technology and Graphene Quantum Dot Battery, representing a novel approach to enhancing energy storage efficiency and prolonging the lifespan of renewable energy systems. The selection of graphene and quantum dots as materials for battery development is attributed to their exceptional properties, including high electrical conductivity, charge storage capacity, efficient energy transfer, and enhanced stability.

Objective

การใช้พลังงานทดแทนจากแหล่งพลังงานแสงอาทิตย์ได้รับความสนใจเนื่องจากเป็นพลังงานสะอาดและยั่งยืน แต่การเก็บพลังงานที่ผลิตได้ในระหว่างวันยังคงมีข้อจำกัดในการใช้งานในช่วงกลางคืนหรือเมื่อพลังงานผลิตต่ำ การพัฒนาระบบกักเก็บพลังงานที่มีประสิทธิภาพสูงจึงมีความสำคัญเพื่อให้การใช้พลังงานแสงอาทิตย์เป็นไปอย่างยั่งยืนและมีประสิทธิภาพสูงสุด แบตเตอรี่กราฟีนควันตัมดอทมีคุณสมบัติเด่นในการเก็บพลังงานและการถ่ายโอนพลังงานอย่างรวดเร็ว โดยสามารถเพิ่มประสิทธิภาพและยืดอายุการใช้งานของแบตเตอรี่ได้ จึงเป็นทางเลือกที่ดีในการพัฒนาระบบกักเก็บพลังงานจากแสงอาทิตย์

A DIGITAL TWIN OF AN AQUARIUM FOR MONITORING WATER QUALITY

This research presents a Digital Twin of an Aquarium for Water Quality Monitoring, developing a virtual model that displays real-time key water parameters, including pH level, temperature, flow rate, and dissolved oxygen. Sensor data is processed and visualized through a Graphical User Interface (GUI) to reflect the real-time status of the virtual aquarium. This system enables accurate water quality monitoring and analysis while reducing reliance on expensive software solutions.

PRIVARY

The "PRIVARY" product is an innovative herbal jelly beverage designed to support weight management and promote health through the benefits of four Thai herbs: roselle, safflower, chrysanthemum, and bitter melon. These herbs are rich in active compounds such as flavonoids, beta-carotene, and anthocyanins, which help reduce blood lipids, prevent inflammation, and exhibit antioxidant properties. The product emphasizes convenience and caters to health-conscious consumers using advanced production techniques like Inverse and External Gelation to create spheres encapsulating key bioactive compounds. Additionally, the product aligns with sustainability goals by enhancing the value of Thai herbs and supporting local communities.

Artificial intelligence of things system for monitoring and controlling irrigation using weather information

This research focuses on the design and development of a prototype Artificial Intelligence of Things (AIoT) system for monitoring and controlling irrigation using weather information. The system consists of four main components: 1) Weather Station – This component includes various sensors such as air temperature, relative humidity, wind speed, and sunlight duration, among others, to collect real-time weather data. 2) Controller Unit – This unit is equipped with machine learning algorithms or models to estimate the reference evapotranspiration (ETo) and calculate the plant’s water requirement by integrating the crop coefficient (Kc) with other plant-related data. This enables the system to determine the optimal irrigation amount based on plant needs automatically. 3) User Interface (UI) and Display – This section allows farmers or users to input relevant information, such as plant type, soil type, irrigation system type, number of water emitters, planting distance, and growth stages. It also provides a display for monitoring and interaction with the system. 4) Irrigation Unit – This component is responsible for controlling the water supply and managing the irrigation emitters to ensure efficient water distribution based on the calculated requirements.
