Young coconut shells are a byproduct after processing coconut juice which can be used to produce a solid-fuel. This fuel from the coconut shell is an alternative source instead of using firewood or charcoal made of timber in the natural forest. The solid-fuel from young coconut shells was prepared by using a wet glue powder as a binder then was compressed by using a briquette machine. The black coconut briquette was stable after exposure to the sun. The average of the briquette combustion rate was at 11.24 g /min. There is no eruption smut smoke and odor by using the young coconut shell briquette yo start a fire. To sum up a young coconut shell has a high potential as an alternative biomass material for producing a briquette especially for commercial. This solution can increase the reduction of haze weather in the sight of solid waste incineration and also global warming.

The purpose of this research were 1) to survey the personal factors of basketball players and 2) provide nutrition guidelines for basketball players. The samples was 100 Singha Pra Nang basketball players based on the purposive sampling method. The research instrument was an online questionnaire and computed by using frequency standard distribution percentage and mean. The calculation program estimating calories burned in a day depended on the activities used in this study. The result of the study reported that the samples were male and female players whose ages ranged from 19 to 35 years old. They were company employees and business owners. The analytical results of male players’ daily basketball practice duration showed that they practiced playing basketball 3 – 5 days per week with amount of moderate-intensity. The amount of calorie required for male depends on the body growth rate. Carbohydrate diet became necessary for the amount of high-intensity activities. Working age and elderly male players whose bodies are fully grown must pay attention to the diet behavior. They decreased their calorie intake and their basal metabolic rate went down. They should avoid strongly flavored food and choose foods they can easily chew. Female player’ basal metabolic rate and energy consumption were different from male players. Female players required foods high in iron. Working age and elderly female players should pay attention to the diet behavior. They also require minerals and vitamins founded in green vegetables and other kinds of vegetables.

Utilizing coconut coir fiber can offer an alternative method of adding value to agricultural wastes and help to conserve the environment. The aim of this research was to investigate the potential use of coconut coir fiber as cement composite as an environmentally material. The properties of cement composites mixed with different proportions of paper wastes were compared with ordinary white Portland cement. In addition the surface structure and chemical characteristics of samples were examined by a scanning electron microscope (SEM) and energy dispersive x-ray spectrometer (EDS). The results show that the main elements - C O Ca Al Si and K respectively were found in cement composites. The compressive and flexural strength of the cement composite decreased with an increase in the coconut coir fiber volume fraction.

The purposes of this research were : 1) A study of knowledge about the nutrition labeling formats GDA of Faculty of Home Economics Technology Rajamangala University of Technology Phra Nakhon Students 2) A study of attitude towards the nutrition labeling formats GDA of Faculty of Home Economics Technology Rajamangala University of Technology Phra Nakhon Students 3) Compare knowledge about the nutrition labeling formats GDA Classified by gender years of study and majors and 4) Compare attitude towards the nutrition labeling formats GDA Classified by gender years of study and majors. The sample were 307 first year to fourth year. The instrument was a questionnaire. Frequency percentage mean standard deviation t-test ANOVA and Duncan’s Multiple Range Test were used in data analysis via computer program. The results showed that : 1) The most students have moderate level of knowledge and understanding 2) Students have a high level of attitudes when considering each item it was found that the items with the highest mean were: The GDA nutrition label is beneficial to everyone 3) Compare knowledge about the nutrition labeling formats GDA of Faculty of Home Economics Technology Rajamangala University of Technology Phra Nakhon Students Classified by gender years of study and majors It was found that students with different levels of education and disciplines had different knowledge about nutritional labels in the GDA except for students with different sex. Knowledge of nutrition labeling according to GDA not different Statistically significant at the .05 level and 4) Compare attitude towards the nutrition labeling formats GDA of Faculty of Home Economics Technology Rajamangala University of Technology Phra Nakhon students classified by gender years of study and majors it was found that students with gender education and different disciplines. Attitude toward nutritional labeling according to GDA not different statistically significant at the .05 level.

The purposes of this research were to study and compare behavior knowledge and attitudes towards food consumption based on gender and BMI in order to promote the solutions to reduce overnutrition of students at Chitralada School (Vocational Programme). The subject consists of 143 students who are overnutrition at Chitralada School (Vocational Programme) in Bangkok in academic year 1/2017. The sample group was randomized through stratified. The research instrument was a questionnaire on the solutions to reduce overnutrition of students at Chitralada School (Vocational Programme). The data were analyzed by percentage mean and standard deviation compared by t-test and F-test with statistical significance level of .05. The research outcomes revealed that students at Chitralada School (Vocational Programme) who have over-nutrition had a good Behavior of food consumption not sure attitudes towards food consumption and a good knowledge towards food consumption. Comparing food consumption behavior attitudes toward food consumption and knowledge towards food consumption based on gender and BMI the result was that female students have better knowledge towards food consumption than male students with statistical significance level of .05. Otherwise there is no differentiation. The major opinion in solution regarding reduction of Over Nutrition of Chitralada Vocational School Students suggested that the School should provide knowledge for students by making poster and brochures.
