The aim of this research was to study the solid waste management in Faculty of Science and Technology Rajamangala University of Technology Phra Nakhon study problems and obstacles of the solid waste management. The study will benefit related organizations as fundamental information for setting plans on the solid waste management to ensure the maximum efficiency and expand to other faculties. In this study a researcher collected quantitative data and also characteristics of solid waste occurred. Total amounts of solid waste were approximately 20.86 kilograms per day. Types of solid waste mostly found were reuse /recycle wastes (10.21 kilograms per day) and organic wastes (10.43 kilograms per day). The results showed an information for developing solid waste management under 3R processes (Reduce Reuse and Recycle) lead to sustainable solid waste management and efficiency.

The survey research aimed to: 1) study the levels of self-development needs in preparation to enter AEC; 2) make a comparison of the students’ needs levels in aspects of personal data; and 3) propose appropriate forms of activities to be used in the development. The subject obtained through stratified random sampling consisted of 321 first-fourth year undergraduates of the Faculty of the Home Economic Technology Rajamangala University of Technology Phra Nakhon. The tool was a questionnaire. To analyse data the frequency percentage mean standard deviation t- test and ANOVA were used. The results were as follows: 1) The overall level of self-development needs was high ( X = 3.75). The needs for selfdevelopment in line with the Thai Qualifications Framework for Higher Education were high ( = 3.89). Moreover the level of needs conforming to Thai Graduate Preferable Qualifications for the ASEAN Community was moderate ( X = 3.46). 2) There was no statistically significant difference ( p<0.05) of the self-development needs level when genders educational levels or academic performances were considered 3) As for the activities it was rated best to use training for the development of cognitive skills numerical analysis communication and information technology skills domain of psychomotor skills and knowledge on ASEAN Community rules and regulations; lecturing for knowledge on ASEAN Community rules and regulations; study touring for knowledge development; camping for ethics and moral interpersonal skills responsibility and language skills; and student inter institutional exchanging for neighbouring countries knowledge development.

The purposes of the research were to study and investigate the relationship between the role perception in Home Economics profession of students from the Faculty of Home Economics Technology and personal and supporting factors. The personal factor consisted of gender year level academic achievement and department. Supporting factor consisted of knowledge experience in Home Economics profession attitude towards Home Economics profession and students’ participation in professional activities. Researchers used stratified random sampling to obtain a sample population of 318 bachelor’s degree students from the Faculty of Home Economics Technology Rajamangala University of Technology Phra Nakhon. Research tools were a questionnaire and a test. Data were analyzed by descriptive and inferential statistics. The results were found that the role perception in Home Economics profession of students from the Faculty of Home Economics Technology was at the high level. There was a significant relationship between the role perception in Home Economics profession of students from the Faculty of Home Economics Technology and year level department attitude towards Home Economics profession and students’ participation in professional activities at the 0.05 level. There was not a significant relationship between the role perception in Home Economics profession of students from the Faculty of Home Economics Technology and gender academic achievement and knowledge and experience in Home Economics profession.

The objectives of this research are to study and compare the problems of studying of Home Economics Profession Rajamangala University of Technology Phra Nakhon. The study is divided into Problems of students education administration academic students affairs and the environment in the university. The independent variables in this study are gender year level department and students’ achievement. The sample were 381 of students who studying in the first academic year of 2014 The sample were taken from a stratified random sampling and collecting data by using questionnaires. Data were analyzed by using descriptive statistics and inferential statistics. The findings found that the overall problems was at the low level at the mean score of 2.37. The problems area of students were at the low level at the mean score of 2.32. The problems area of education administration were at the low level at the mean score of 2.40. The problems area of academic were at the low level at the mean score of 2.23. The problems area of student affairs were at the low level at the mean score of 2.35 and the problems area of environment in the university were at the moderate level at the mean score of 2.55. After comparing all the problems of studying with the independent variable; gender department and students’ achievement it was found that the difference was not significant. year level of studying were significant at the level of 0.05

The study was aimed to investigate the production of banana fiber that was suitable for decorating handicraft basketry examine its effectiveness develop decorative handicraft materials for basketry from fibrous layer on the trunk of the banana tree and promote the obtained knowledge in the community of Plasticseeroong Baanmor Promburi District Singburi Province. The research result could be summarized that the most appropriate production process of dry fibrous layer on the trunk of the banana tree mixed with fibrous layer of paper mulberry was done through mechanical process. After bleaching the mixed fibrous layer was stirred by Hollander beater with the proportion of wet fibrous layer and water at 1:40; 10% of dry of paper mulberry was boiled for three hours in sodium hydroxide at 100degree Celsius then bleached with 1.5% of hydrogen peroxide with 4% of the dry fibrous layer weight at 90 to 95 degree Celsius for two hours. The mixture of wet fibrous layer on the trunk of the banana tree with wet fibrous layer of paper mulberry was 70:30 which was considered appropriate for decorating handicraft basketry. Concerning the examination of mechanical properties of banana tree fibrous layer according to the standard of TAPPI T it was found that the folding endurance of paper value was 144 (N. m/g); the tensile strength value was 32.16 (N. m/g); the tear resistance value was 26.56 (mN.m2/g); and the bursting strength value was at 1.94 (KPa.m2/g). The fibrous layer obtained from on the trunk of the banana tree was fabricated into decorative basketry materials for example flowers palm leave hats flower key chains bags and paraffin coated flowers for bamboo boxed. The attendants’ satisfaction on the training of the production of decorative handicraft materials of basketry from fibrous layer on the trunk of the banana tree to 30 members of the community of Plasticseeroong Baanmor Promburi District Singburi Province concerning the training service speakers training procedures facilities and training benefits was at high level (90.67%) and at average level (9.33%).
