SIDEWALK DEVELOPMENT TO PROMOTE ACCESSIBILITY OF PUBLIC SERVIERS FOR ELDERY PEOPLE : A CASE STUDY OF KHON KAEN CITY MUNICIPALITY

The concept of building a friendly city for older people by adjusting the physical environment is considered one of the crucial components of promoting older people’s better health and quality of life. Based on this tenet, designing a suitable footpath and considering older people’s needs are vital to the reduction of risks and the increase of safety in travelling, especially for older people living in Wat-Thad and Wat-Klang communities where the proportion of the elderly has continuously, increased. The research aimed to 1) survey the physical environment of footpath, approaching public assistance, 2) observe the elderly’s behavior and satisfaction on footpath in communities, and 3) create the proposal concept in developing the suitable footpath with the elderly’s need in city area. This research used various tools, including the questionnaire on the footpath’s physical environment to analyse problems, limitations, and footpath potentials, the interview of staff in the Engineering Division, Khon Kaen municipality and the questionnaires collecting travelling behaviour, satisfaction and attitude of elderly on the footpath in community. The data analysis the physical environment following six components in the monitoring list showed three used descriptive statistics. Interestingly, from 370 samples, the results of investigating qualified evaluations, namely 1) land utilisation in the communities, 2) linking the transportation network, and 3) beautifully attractive places for walking. However, three unqualified evaluations were 1) safety footpath availability, 2) design for all people, and 3) walking on the footpath to access public assistance and facilities. Moreover, the results from the questionnaire to study older people’s travelling behaviour, indicated that the most travelling objectives were grocery shopping and accessing the recreation sites with frequent visits three to five times per week.

Nanocellulose innovation for the beauty industry

Agricultural products and by-products are important raw materials in various industries including cosmetics and pharmaceuticals. Agro-based fibers have the composition, properties and structure that make them suitable for uses as composite-cosmetic industry. Upon microwave digestion, cellulose have been successfully synthesized into nanocrystalline cellulose (NCC) with lengths from 50-1000 nm, widths between 5-70 nm. Nanocrystalline cellulose was grafted with cosmetic active ingredients such as glycerin), sodium hyaluronate), glycolic acid, and nicotinamide. The beauty active ingredients attached nanocelluloses can penetrate through the skin to enhance beauty and youth.
