This research was aimed to study the participation behaviors in the electrical energy saving the factors affected to the participation behaviors and the promotion of the participation behaviors in electrical energy saving of the undergraduate students of the Faculty of Science and Technology Rajamangala University of Technology Phra NaKhon. The participants of 150 students from the Faculty of Science and Technology was also performed based on systematic sampling. The questionnaire was used. The statistical evaluation was also analyzed based on the percentage mean and standard deviation. A 85% of participants is male a range of age to be 19-20 years old (62.7%) second academic years by about 37.3% and a 65.3% of participants has been studying in the major of computer science. Knowledge levels in the electrical energy saving of the most participants are high (13.33%) moderate (62%) and low level (24.67%). The four participation behaviors in the electrical energy saving were analyzed including electrical lighting system air conditioner and ventilator system office electrical system and electrical equipment maintenances resulting in very high level with the average mean of 4.25 and standard deviation of .547. First the participation behavior in the electrical equipment maintenance was very high level with 4.31 and S.D.=.870. Second the participation behavior in the office electrical system was to be 4.27 with S.D.=.828. Third the participation behavior in the air conditioner and ventilator system was to be 4.21 with S.D.=.549. Finally the participation behavior in the electrical lighting system was very slow level with 4.21 and S.D.=.672. By comparing the participation behaviors in the electrical energy saving with the different of academic major of students the participation behaviors in the electrical energy saving did not significant different.

The objective of this work was to study the adsorption efficiency of bamboo and its surface modified with manganese oxide for removal of Pb(II) ion. The adsorption of Pb(II) from aqueous solution onto bamboo (BB) and manganese oxide-modified bamboo powder (MnO-BB) was evaluated based on batch experiment. The adsorption efficiency of MnO-BB onto Pb(II) was investigated as a function of the initial pH of 6 equilibrium time of 30 min adsorbent concentration of 5 g/L and initial concentration of Pb(II) solution in the range of 50-500 mg/L. The adsorption isotherms of Langmuir Freundlich and Dubinin-Radushkevich were used to describe the equilibrium isotherm. It is observed that the data from MnO-BB adsorbents fitted well to the Langmuir isotherm. The maximum monolayer adsorption capacities of MnO-NC were estimated as 38.76 mg/g. By comparing with BB the amount of Pb(II) adsorbed onto MnO-BB was more than BB by about 40 times under the optimized adsorption condition. According to Dubinin-Radushkevich isotherm the adsorptive mechanism of Pb(II) onto MnO-BB was chemisorption. The kinetic studies of Pb(II) demonstrated that the adsorption of Pb(II) onto MnO-BB adsorbent followed a pseudo second-order model with a good correlation. The adsorption mechanism was processed via chemical ion exchange between H+ and bonded MnO groups and Pb(II) ions in solution

The objective of this research was to determine and estimate the quality of ground water for producing village-tap water without pre-treatment in 3 districts Samchuk Nongyasai and Dermbangnangbuat districts Suphanburi province. Villagetap water was collected from 88 boreholes covered 17 sub-districts in June 2014 and January 2015 using standard method and then correctly preserved before analysis process. The result showed that pH conducted in filed using pH meter found in the range 7.0 to 9.2. Total hardness was found in the range of 110 to 590 mg/L as CaCO3. The concentration of Mn Fe Pb was found in the range of 0.08 - 0.88 mg/L nd - 1.88 mg/L and nd - 0.07 mg/L respectively. The concentration of Cd was to be non-detectable for all samples. The result found that total hardness was found higher value than standard quality water according to publish by Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment Thailand. The contamination of Mn and Fe in some samples was higher value than maximum allowable concentration. The problem of Fecontamination can extremely affect to physical properties of quality water. The production of household-water filtration in this work was modified from Bureau of Community Technology Department of Science Service Ministry of Science and Technology. The technology communication of the production household-water filtration was conducted by workshop procedure. The production household-water filtration was conducted step-by-step. All participants can produce the household-water filtration by themselves.

The effect of pesticides on farmers and the distribution of residual pesticides in rice plants and rice grain was studied in rice farming area covered in Samchuk district Suphanburi province. The situation and health effects related to pesticides was conducted using an individual interview and filled-form questionnaire with 126 samples. The participants were male of 68.3% and female of 31.7%. Educational level of participants was to be 36.5% and 24.6% for primary and elementary levels respectively. One-third of farmers (33.3%) reported a monthly income in the range of 5000 to 10000 Baht. A quarter of farmers (25.4%) got higher a monthly income with 10001 to 15000 Baht. Family members was found to be 4 persons (54%) 5 persons (19.8%) and over 5 persons (11.1%). All participants concerned the behavior and perception related pesticides for their highly toxicities and extremely dangerously death. A half of herbicide (50%) was glyphosate. Seriously paraquat (commercial name of Gramoxone) was found to be 22%. On the other hand the most of insecticide (55%) was an abamectin and carbofuran (commercial name of Furadan) was found to be 15%. A 20 samples of rice plants and rice grain was collected by random sampling. The residual carbofuran and glyphosate in rice plants and rice grain was determined using standard method. It was found that carbofuran was found in the range of ND-0.05 μg/kg and ND-0.08 μg/kg for rice plants and rice grain respectively. Glyphosate was found in the range of ND-0.26 μg/ kg and ND– 0 . 2 2 μg/ kg for rice plants and rice grain respectively. The residual levels of carbofuran and glyphosate in rice plants and rice grain depended on a spray period time their decomposition and the concentration of carbofuran and glyphosate. The residual levels of carbofuran and glyphosate did not significantly quantitative correlation between rice plants and rice grain.

The objective of this work was to study the adsorption efficiency of natural clay and its surface modified with manganese oxide for removal of Pb( II) ion. The adsorption of Pb( II) from aqueous solution onto raw natural clay (NC) and manganese oxide-modified natural clay (MnO-NC) was evaluated based on batch experiment. The adsorption efficiency of MnO-NC onto Pb( II) was investigated as a function of the initial pH of 6 equilibrium time of 30 min adsorbent concentration of 5 g/L and initial concentration of Pb(II) solution in the range of 50- 500 mg/L. The adsorption isotherms of Langmuir Freundlich and Dubinin-Radushkevich were used to describe the equilibrium isotherm. It is observed that the data from MnO-NC adsorbents fitted well to the Langmuir isotherm. The maximum monolayer adsorption capacities of MnO-NC were estimated as 38. 76 mg/ g. By comparing with NC the amount of Pb( II) adsorbed onto MnO-NC was more than NC by about 38 times under the optimized adsorption condition. According to Dubinin-Radushkevich isotherm the adsorptive mechanism of Pb(II) onto MnO-NC was chemisorption whereas the NC showed the mechanism as physical in nature. The kinetic studies of Pb( II) demonstrated that the adsorption of Pb( II) onto MnO- NC and NC adsorbents followed a pseudo second- order model with a good correlation. The adsorption mechanism was processed via chemical ion exchange between H+ and bonded MnO groups and Pb(II) ions in solution.
