The objectives of this research are to study the production step proper ratio physical properties mechanical properties thermal insulation and sound insulation efficiency of concrete blocks mixed with coconut shell ash. The ratios of concrete block mixed with coconut shell ash include Portland cement type1: quarry dust: coconut shellash which equal to 1: 6.8: 0.2 1: 6.7: 0.3 1: 6.6: 0.4 1: 6.5: 0.5 and 1: 6.4: 0.6 by weight. Water per cement ratio are 0.6 by weight. The concrete block samples were casted by the general production as same as the ordinary concrete blocks and were tested follow TIS.58. From the results the best amount of coconut shell ash which put into concrete block is 1: 6.7: 0.3 of ratio. The proper ratios of coconut shell ash can decrease the density or weight and increase the thermal insulation and sound insulation efficiency of concrete blocks. However the high amounts of coconut shell ash effect to decrease the mechanical properties concrete blocks that are lower than TIS.58 standard.

The objective of this research is to study the implementing the agricultural residue to the design of outdoor paving block for lowering the building temperature. The base layer admixture (layer no.1) is selected from cement type1: quarry dust: rice husk: rice straw: water ratios equal to 1: 3: 0: 0: 0.3 1: 1: 0: 1: 0.5 1: 1. 0.25: 0.75: 0.5 1: 1: 0.5: 0.5: 0.5 1: 1: 0.75: 0.25: 0.5 and 1: 1: 1: 0: 0.5 by weight. The surface layer admixture (layer no.2) is white silica cement: yellow stone chip no.4: water equals to 1: 4: 0.3 by weight. The exterior floor-covering blocks were tested following density testing water absorption testing compressive testing and surface temperature testing compare with laterite sandstone paving concrete block marble and granite. Resulting the best ratio of cement type1: quarry dust: rice husk: rice straw: water is 1: 1: 0.75: 0.25: 0.5 that has properties at 28 days following 1939.43 kg/m of density 14.97 % of water absorption 284.69 ksc of compressive strength and lower than other paving blocks around 3 – 13 degrees Celsius of surface temperature

The study of the Knowledge and Participation in Saving Electric Energy of Students and Staffs at Rajamangala University of Technologh Phra Nakhon aimed to find out and compare the level of knowledge and participation in electric energy saving. The population consisted of 865 subjects. The questionairs are desiged for rating five scales check. The reference statistics for data analysis included frequency percentage arithematic mean standard deviation t-test and one way anova respectively.

This study is to determine guideline to reduce carbon footprint for organization of medium and small hotels in Thailand using the Carbon Footprint for Organization (CFO) according to Thailand Greenhouse Gas Management Organization (Public Organization). Conducting with 2 represented medium and small hotels the results showed that the overall carbon footprint average of 2013 was 553t.Co2-e. Considering concentration index by number of guestrooms the carbon footprint was 18.81 kg.Co2e/room-night 221.16 kg.Co2-e/m2 by total floor area and 11.65kg.Co2- e/personby guest. The dominant source of carbon footprint was use of electricity 465t.Co2-e(83.06%). Base on this assessment to use of air conditioning was 60.09 % water heater 17.64 % lighting equipment 15.05 % and other 7.22 % of total electricity used. Therefore guidelines for carbon footprint reducing of the representative hotel were to use technology to reduce electricity consumption for air conditioning water heater and lighting respectively. Based Approach to Reducing Carbon Footprint found that small and medium sized hotels can reduce emissions per year 24.87 t.CO2-e representing the ability to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by up to 4.49% or financial projections be able to save money 171.202 baht per year.

The research was aimed at studying 1) fuel energy saving of automobile drivers in Nonthaburi province 2) a correlation between cause and effect on fuel energy saving of automobile drivers in Nonthaburi province and 3) a model made for assessing fuel energy saving of automobile drivers in Nonthaburi province. The questionnaires were constructed as a tool for collecting data from 2389 automobile drivers who had been getting their car filled in gas station in Nonthaburi province. The statistics used for analysis were SPSS version 17.0 with frequency distribution percentage arithmetic mean K related samples and path analysis. The research finding indicated that the 98.06 percents of automobile drivers in Nonthaburi province had knowledge about fuel energy saving the 87.99 percents had agreeable attitude towards fuel energy saving and the 80.59 percents had operated fuel energy saving. They all had different levels of knowledge attitude and operation. It showed that the automobile drivers with knowledge and agreeable attitude didnt sometimes put it into operation and they sometimes had disagreeable attitude in spite of having knowledge. The result of hypotheses tests at the statistical significance of 0.05 showed that the types of fuel energy used in the car a change of types of fuel energy used in the car knowledge provided about fuel energy saving in the car knowledge and attitude towards fuel energy saving in the car correlated with fuel energy saving of automobile drivers in Nonthaburi province. Moreover a model made for assessing fuel energy saving of automobile drivers in Nonthaburi province was
