A high-pressure gas storage tank made from composite materials, including carbon fiber, resin, and plastic, is designed for storing compressed natural gas (CNG) or hydrogen. This type of tank is classified as a Type IV high-pressure vessel. In this research, it is designed to operate at a pressure of 250 bar for the transportation of compressed natural gas.
การบรรจุก๊าซที่ความดันสูงต้องใช้บรรจุภัณฑ์ที่มีความแข็งแรง การใช้ถังที่ผลิตจากโลหะถูกนำมาใช้ในช่วงแรกๆ แต่ปัญหาที่ตามมาคือน้ำหนักมากทำให้สิ้นเปลืองเชื้อเพลิงในกรณีที่นำไปติดตั้งบนยานพาหนะ จึงเกิดการพัฒนาถังความดันที่พัฒนาจากวัสดุประกอบขึ้นซึ่งจะช่วยลดน้ำหนักของบรรจุภัณฑ์และการกัดกร่อนเกิดขึ้นน้อย

The Ginbanirose project aims to develop herbal extracts for alleviating menstrual pain using key ingredients: roselle, banana inflorescence, and ginger. These ingredients contain bioactive compounds with anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and pain-relieving properties. The extracts are enhanced through liposome encapsulation technology, which improves absorption and stability. The production process involves herbal extraction, freeze-drying, and liposome formulation using lecithin and stabilizers. Experimental results demonstrate high phenolic content and antioxidant activity via the DPPH method. Ginbanirose addresses women’s quality of life concerns while offering significant business opportunities in the rapidly growing herbal market, particularly in the Asia-Pacific region.

The reuse of cooking oil in food preparation leads to oil degradation and the formation of harmful compounds due to oxidation. This study focuses on enhancing the stability of used palm oil through ultrasound-assisted infusion with three varieties of banana blossoms: Kluai Khai, Kluai Hom, and Kluai Nam Wa, which are rich in phenolic compounds and antioxidants. The research investigates the restoration of used palm oil by infusing dried and powdered banana blossoms using ultrasonic treatment at different temperatures and durations. The quality of the infused oil was evaluated through physical (water activity, moisture content, and color), chemical (peroxide value, acid value, and Thio barbituric acid reactive substances), and antioxidant activity (DPPH, ABTS, and FRAP) analyses.

This study aimed to investigate the effects of different salinity levels on survival rate and growth performance of golden apple snail (Pomacea canaliculata). The experiment was conducted at salinity levels of 0, 5, 10, and 15 ppt, with four replicates each, over an 8-week period. The results showed that golden apple snails reared at 5-10 ppt exhibited survival rates and growth performance not significantly different (p>0.05) from those in the freshwater control group (0 ppt). These findings suggest the potential for developing golden apple snail culture in brackish water systems and the possibility of integration with other brackish water species in polyculture systems.
