Nowadays the fuel energy is consumed more than it was used in the past and most of energy used comes from petroleum which is not reusable. Moreover the crude oil which is raw material to be refined is likely to take place in nature; it usually takes a long time. Therefore this natural resource must be used efficiently to maximize its benefits. Construction of Econo Power Car will be one of many methods to decrease the energy consumption. The objective of research aims to influence parameter effecting to the fuel consumption such as engine system transmission system suspension system and fuel injection system. Furthermore the Econo Power Car is estimated to cooperate with 11th Honda Econo Power. To achieve this the effects of fuel consumption parameters are investigated using experiments. For the suspension system the wheel resistance and the rolling resistance are decreased by wheel angle modification and changing the wheel bearing. Moreover the engine is adjusted by the fuel injector addition. For the economical experiment in the 11th Honda Econo Power the By Part Team (RMUTP Team) has the consumption 843.443 kilometer/liter and within 4th order from 347 teams by the invent higher education of competition and type of 125cc. The winner team has the economize statistics 999.746 kilometer/liter. As a result influence parameters of fuel consumption are wheel resistance and engine system which is good knowledge for the development of the Econo Power Car in the future.

This work was aimed to improve the carbon black from waste tires for printing ink using coupling agent to disperse carbon black particle for making an oil-based offset ink. This experiment used 2 coupling agent these were silane coupling and derivative fatty acid and used to produce offset inks for the 7 formulas. Formula 1 Commercail carbon blackFormula 2 carbon black was not washed by Nitric acid formula 3 carbon black was not washed by Nitric acid and was added silane coupling agent formula 4 carbon black was not washed by Nitric acid and was added fatty acid modified emulsifier formula 5 carbon black was washed by nitric acid formula 6 carbon black was washed by nitric acid and was added silane coupling formula 7 carbon black was washed by nitric acid and was added fatty acid modified emulsifier. Bring all 6 formulas to test property to compare with offset ink commercial. First find the smallest particle of carbon black for 90 minutes. It was found that formula 4 took 20 minutes to make particles 12 micron and it is smalles particle of all. Then measured ink flow by Spread-O-Meter and measured diameter after 1 minute. It was found that formula 3 and 3 were 77 mm. and approximate commercial ink. Then measured tack of ink with Ink-O-Meter it was found that formula 2 3 4 6 and 7 were 2.4 and formula 5 was 2. Then measured viscosity and yield value of ink by Lary viscometer. It was found that formula 2 had 77 poise of ink viscosity and 670 dyne.s/cm2 of ink yield value that was approximate commercial ink. Finally measured Emulsification capacity (%) by Kershaw Water Pick up Tester. It was found that formula 6 had 74% and it was approximate commercial ink.

This research is aimed at investigating the amount of chromium carbide (Cr23C6) in stainless steel AISI 304 by electrochemical technique testing in calculating the Pa values that corresponding to sensitization stage and the corrosion behavior. The results will carry on to developing the welding process. The specimens were produced with Shielded Metal Arc Welding method. Moreover it was bending at the angle 0 90 and 180 degree and the process finished on post-heat treatment with different cool down conditions are 800ºC annealed in air cooled 1100ºC annealed in water cooled and annealed 1100ºC in air cooled respectively. The results show that: first conditional is appeared the maximum amount of Pa value (Pa > 0.4) indicating that more precipitation of Cr23C6 in heat affected zone (HAZ) of specimen. The second conditional is not found the sensitization stage because when the specimens were annealed at high temperature the chromium carbide will break up and residual stress in HAZ will decrease. At last conditional is found the less amount of Pa value; the reason of using high temperature on annealing process will decrease chromium carbide but slowly air-induced cooling must pass the critical temperature then some Cr23C6 will appear at grain boundary and cause of high corrosion rate. Concerning to the corrosion behavior the second conditional present the lowest corrosion rate corresponding to the better-quality of passive film. Whereas the first conditional shown the highest corrosion rate and low quality of passive film. Thus 1100ºC annealed with water cooled is excellent condition for developing the welding process.

Activated carbon also called activated charcoal or activated coal is a form of carbon that has been processed to make it extremely porous and thus to have a very large surface area available for adsorption or chemical reactions. In this research studies environmental impacts of activated carbon production processes which produced from two types of agricultural by-products namely : coconut shells and palm-oil shells . SimaPro software is applied to evaluate the environmental impacts of both processes. The results have shown that the environmental impacts for the process using coconut shells as raw material is higher than that using palm –oil shells as raw material.

In this research palm oil fuel ash was utilized as a pozzolanic material in blended Portland cement mortar. The mortar was tested on the normal compressive strength and the negative effect of carbonation in indoor environment using the accelerated carbonation test of 5% CO2 in 50% relative humidity. Three palm oil fuel ash fractions of different fineness viz. coarse original palm oil fuel ash (CPOA) medium palm oil fuel ash (MPOA) and fine palm oil fuel ash (FPOA) were used for the study. Ordinary Portland cement (OPC) was partially replaced by these palm oil fuel ashes at the dosages of 20% and 40% by weight of binder. The results showed that the incorporation of the ashes affected the strength and the carbonation depths of mortars. The strengths of mortar slightly decreased with the increases in the dosage of the ash. The fineness of ash on the other hand improved the strength and the carbonation of the mortars. The mortars containing FPOA exhibited high strength and relatively low carbonation in comparison to those using coarser MPOA and CPOA. The use of FPOA resulted in a strong and dense mortar owing to the increased packing effect and pozzolanic reaction. It was therefore demonstrated that the FPOA could be used as a pozzolanic material to replace part of Portland cement for use in the indoor environment.
