Stirling engine is the external heated engine that heat is sup-plied externally to the heater part of the engine. Thus, Stirling cycle engine can be employed with various sources of renewable energy such as biomass, biofuel, solar energy, geothermal energy, recovery heat, and waste. The integration of gasifier, burner, and heat engine as a power system offers more fuel choices of each local area with potential resources resulting independent from shortage and cost fluctuation of fossil fuel. This research aims to investigate the integration of the Stirling engine with a wood pellet gasifier for electric power generation. Biomass can be controlled to have continuously combustion with ultra-low toxic emission. Stirling engine, therefore, is a promising alternative in small-scale-electricity production. Even though many biomass-powered Stirling engines were successfully constructed and marketed but these engines and the use of biomass resources as fuel for power generation are quite new concepts in some developing countries. Especially, the capital cost of this engine is high and unaffordable for installation compared to other power systems. Therefore, this research aims to the study attractive and feasibility of the compact Stirling engine with green energy.
เนื่องจากความต้องการพลังงานที่มีมากขึ้น แต่เชื้อเพลิงฟอสซิลซึ่งเป็นแหล่งพลังงานหลักมีอยู่อย่างจำกัดและเป็นสาเหตุหนึ่งของมลพิษและภาวะโลกร้อน ดังนั้นพลังงานทางเลือกจึงเป็นกุญแจสำคัญเพื่อความยั่งยืนด้านพลังงาน ประเทศไทยมีศักยภาพของพลังงานชีวมวลจากเกษตรกรรม ดังนั้นการพัฒนาระบบผลิตไฟฟ้าที่มลพิษต่ำและสามารถใช้ได้กับแหล่งพลังงานทดแทนจึงจำเป็นอย่างยิ่ง โดยเฉพาะเครื่องยนต์สเตอร์ลิงซึ่งมีโครงสร้างชิ้นส่วนไม่ซับซ้อน ปราศจากการสันดาปภายในเครื่องยนต์จึงเป็นเครื่องยนต์ที่มีศักยภาพผลิตไฟฟ้าด้วยพลังงานสะอาดและเป็นมิตรกับสิ่งแวดล้อมและความสำเร็จของโรงไฟฟ้าเครื่องยนต์สเตอร์ลิง ในประเทศไทย เพื่อคนไทย

The thesis artwork titled “The Red Mist” presents a narrative adapted from a short story of the same name by Assistant Professor Chatnarong Wisutkul in 2003. The story is set in a future world where people's greed and selfishness have led to a war, forcing them to rely on "breathing machines" to survive in the "red toxic mist." Phakin, a 15-year-old boy, embarks on a journey with a group of refugees. As they pass through abandoned cities, they encounter a boy without a breathing machine who has recently lost his father. Phakin decides to help him, despite objections from others. The boy tries to end his life by shutting off his breathing machine, and when Phakin intervenes to save him, he collapses from inhaling the toxic air. Witnessing Phakin's selfless act, the others are moved and join forces to save both of them. Phakin demonstrates that in difficult times, humans must cooperate and help each other rather than being divided and selfish.

This research aimed to (1) analyze the problems and needs in designing labels for catfish strip products of the Lam Sai Phatthana Community Enterprise Group, (2) develop the labels for catfish strip products, and (3) evaluate the satisfaction levels of consumers and community group members with the developed labels. The study involved 17 members of the community enterprise group and 151 consumers. Research methods included in-depth interviews and questionnaires to gather satisfaction data. The results showed that the newly developed product labels were effective in attracting attention and building trust in the product. The satisfaction levels among the Lam Sai Phatthana Community Enterprise Group members and consumers were high (x ̅= 4.17 and 3.75, respectively).
