Nowadays one of major problems of SMEs is improperly planning the production to serve for the true demand of customers. Therefore this research was set the objective to apply forecasting techniques to predict the right demands and feed them together with other constraints as inputs for the LP model in production planning to get maximum profit and also conform to the restriction constraints such as production processes sales volume labor constraints inventory and investment requirements. As a result from this study the Decomposition Technique by Minitab program was the most accurate technique for sales forecasting of Quilt Products of Hmon-Oon Group. The sales forecasting information was then used as input to a mathematical model (LP) targeting maximized profit processing by Solver program in Microsoft Excel 2010. Eventually the business can gain more benefit by using this method from 358830 Baht in one quarter to 504425 Baht or 40.57% increase. Cost of inventory decreases from 17764 Baht to 16670 Baht or 6.16% decrease. Production labor hours in one quarter decreases from 2984.12 hours to 2378.77 hours or 20.29% decrease

The objective of this study is to upgrade the quality of community product manufacturers in Kamphaeng Phet province to the national and international level of the standard for community products by using a knowledge implementation workshop promoted its processing and standard specification followed up by sample screening test of Thai FDA certified or none products; and then qualified each screened sample quality for the standards for community products by Thai Industrial Standards Institute. The result of this study revealed that the dry fish chili paste fry tapioca butter aloe vera in syrup mushroom fermented soya milk cookies noodle and chili paste which must be improved is aflatoxin sorbic acid the definition and scope of products Staphylococus aureus moisture content benzoic acid water activity respectively. Screening test showed net weight measurement and product labeling problems. The product information which met the standards could be applied for the standard quality of community product in Kamphaeng Phet province and upgraded to the quality of community product to food safety and food security.

The yield of biodiesel from a base catalyzed transesterification in a batch system is generally low due to the reversed reaction. In addition the process tends to generate high amount of waste water in the washing step. In order to overcome the above problems a continuous process was adopted in this study. Solid alum was used to stop the reaction and filtered off from the biodiesel products. The results showed that biodiesel production from palm oil in a 2.8 liter continuous reactor filled with stainless steel wool acted as a static mixer gave biodiesel of 99.6% purity in 10 minutes at the flow rate of 280 milliliter per minutes. KOH was used as the reaction catalyst at a concentration of 0.75% based on ethanol. The molar ratio of ethanol to oil was 9:1. Three hundred and fifty gram of alum could satisfactorily neutralize one liter of biodiesel.

The purposes of this research were 1) Study behavior and demand of consumers for handicraft product from palm leaf. 2) Design and development handicraft product from palm Leaf. 3) Study of consumer satisfaction for handicraft product from palm Leaf.

The average high satisfaction product was Image of Buddha decorate with flowercosmetic bagpurse and handbag .

Bamboo sawdust from chopstick production process was used as substrate for Indian oyster (Phoenix mushroom) cultivation. Experimental studies in cultivation material including wood sawdust bamboo sawdust and fermented chopped straw for 4 experiments - first experiment used 100 % of wood sawdust the second experiment used 25 % of bamboo sawdust mixed with 75 % of fermented chopped straw the third one used 50 % of bamboo sawdust mixed with 50 % of fermented chopped straw the forth one used 75 % of bamboo sawdust mixed with 25 % of fermented chopped straw and the last one used 100 % of bamboo sawdust. All experiments were analyzed for chemical properties nutrients in substrates for mushroom growing and yield of mushroom. The results showed that each type of mushroom substrate with different humidity. pH is suitable for use as a mushroom cultivation material. For quantity of nutrients in bamboo sawdust is more than wood sawdust. Increasing of nutrients is depending on increase fermented chopped straw. For mycelia growth in wood sawdust were faster than a bamboo sawdust culture. Yield of Indian oyster (Phoenix mushroom) found in any treatments. Especially in experiment 3 (50 % of bamboo sawdust mixed with 50 % of fermented chopped straw) is more suitable for Indian oyster (Phoenix mushroom) cultivation which compared to the other treatments because of highest yield mushrooms (175.11 grams per piece).
