title: Design of control configuration for highly heat-integrated HDA process

description: The design plantwide control structures for a highly heat integrated plant is quite diﬃcult task since the highly heat integrated plant has a few utility unit (i.e. heater and cooler) to absorb thermal disturbance load. This problem can be solved by adding auxiliary utility unit. However, more auxiliary utility unit will be increase capital operating and maintenance costs. In this research, we propose the strategy to design the workable highly heat integrated plant like alternatives 5 and 6 of hydrodealkylation of toluene (HDA) process with minimum auxiliary utility unit. It starts with specifying the disturbances and their magnitudes, next designing the worst case condition, and then designing the heat pathway. Finally, the minimum auxiliary utility units are evaluated. We can solve the control difficulties associated with alternatives 5 and 6 by adding an auxiliary utility unit to the process instead of three and four as suggested by Luyben (1999), respectively. The three new control structures are proposed and their performances are evaluated. As shown in dynamic simulation study, the control performance for the highly heat integrated plant with minimum auxiliary utility unit is same with the highly heat integrated plant with full auxiliary utility units. CS1 is the best control structure for handle disturbances due to it gives better control performances. In this control structure, the selective controller with low selector switch (LSS) is employed to achieve dynamic maximum energy recovery that can save energy about 0.45 % for change in the heat load disturbance of cold stream. Besides, the inlet hot temperature at entrance of reboiler is maintained to prevent the propagation of thermal disturbance to separation section.

title: Ballistic deposition model with surface diffusion for thin film growth on patterned substrates

description: Ballistic deposition model is a simple computational model described the growth of thin film with void defect. To make it more realistic, a surface diffusion process is added into the model. In this work, different interpretations of this process result in two different models, a “conventional” model and a “realistic” model. To see the difference between these models, the film’s morphology, interface width and defect density are studied. Simulation results show that the films from both models have smoother surfaces with less void defect density when the substrate temperature is increased. However, high substrate temperature leads to oscillations of the interface width curve in the conventional model while the curve of the realistic model maintains a power law relation with growth time. When studying the growth on patterned substrates, the realistic model was used. Two types of substrate, a flat substrate and a periodic patterned substrate, were studied. Persistence probability is a quantity that provides information on how much the pattern of the substrate is kept after the growth process is complete. Here, we found that the persistence probabilities of the films grown on both substrates decrease with the growth time. If the time is fixed, the substrate temperature plays an important role in controlling the film’s pattern. We found that there is only a narrow window of temperature that the film can maintain its original pattern longest. Also, we found that if the flat part of the substrate is larger, the original pattern of the film can survive longer.

title: Acetylcholinesterase inhibitors from roots of Feroniella lucida

description: The chemical study of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitory activity compounds from BuOH crude extract from roots of Feroniella lucida in the family Rutaceae led to the isolation of four new furanocoumarins, named feronielloside, feroniellic acid A, feroniellic acid B and feroniellic acid C along with twelve known coumarins, glucopsoralen, bergaptol-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside, aesculetin glycoside, 2", 3"-epoxyanisolactone, anisolactone, marmesin, feroniellin A, feroniellin C, xanthoarnol, gosferol, 7-demethylsaberosine and haploperoside. Their structures were elucidated by the combination of spectroscopic method as well as comparison with previous literature data and chemical evidence. All the isolated coumarins were tested for AChE inhibitory activity by Ellman spectroscopic method. Of the isolated coumarins, gosferol was showed strong inhibitory effect against AChE with IC50 value of 8.3 mM. In addition, xanthoarnol and marmesin were also found to be active in inhibiting AChE with IC50 values of 10.2 and 13.3 mM, respectively. Of coumarin glycosides, feronielloside was the most active AChE inhibitor with IC50 value of 16.9 mM.

title: Some super edge-magic graphs

description: A (p, q)-graph G is super edge-magic if there exists a bijective function f : V (G) [union] E(G) [right arrow] {1, 2,..., p+q}such that f(U)+f(v)+f(UV) is a constant for any uv [is and element of] E(G) and f(V(G)) = {1, 2, ..., p}. The super edge-magic deficiency [mu][subscript s] (G) of a graph G is the smallest nonnegative integer n with the property that the graph G [union] nK[subscript 1] is super edge-magic or +[infinity] if there exists no such integer n. We show some new super edge-magic graphs and investigate bounds for the super edge-magic deficiency of some graphs. Moreover, a new construction of super edge-magic graphs from the old ones is presented.

title: Supply management of a contract manufacturer

description: This thesis concerns the improvement of the supply management system of a contract manufacturer. Originally, the studied company had problems of untimely deliveries and high cost of material expedition. The problems were caused by unstable demands from customers in term of time and volume. These problems affected the overall performance of company as well as customer dissatisfaction. The improvement began with an extensive investigation of the existing system. Fish bone diagrams and Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (FMEA) were used to analyze problems and their causes. The analyses led to the development of a new system which can be divided into two areas: external and internal areas. The external area concerns mainly with localization of supply sourcing. The internal area involves the improvements of material planning and purchasing lead time reduction. The implementations of the improved system shows improvements of supply management system, Material shortages, and expediting costs, are reduced significantly. The material shortages could be reduced by more than 60% and the expediting costs could be decreased by approximately USD 67,000. There is also significant improvement of keeping delivery promises some due to the agreement on the suggested frozen-order time zone which makes order stable enough to manage. Lead time of most products and shortened satisfaction by localizing sources of suppliers. However, lead time of some products can not be shortened significantly because the customers insist on using some items from sources with long purchasing lead time.

title: Preparation and characterization of tungsten trioxide-titanium dioxide composite film and its applications in heterogeneous photocatalysis

description: This research focuses on preparation and characterization of TiO[subscript 2], WO[subscript 3] and composite films using two techniques: electrodeposition and anodization. Optimization of SS/TiO[subscript 2], SS/WO[subscript 3] and composite films prepared by electrodeposition on the stainless steel (SS) type 304 was investigated. This study also probes the relationship between the morphology of anodic TiO[subscript 2] and WO[subscript 3] layers grown on Ti or W foil substrates and their subsequent photoelectrochemical response in 0.5 M Na[subscript 2]SO[subscript 4] supporting electrolyte. The effects of anodization variables (voltage and time) and anodization medium composition [water, glycerol, poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG), ethylene glycol (EG)] along with fluoride ion concentration on the oxide layer morphology and photoresponse are described. Well define nanotube morphology of TiO[subscript 2] was observed when the fluoride ion containing electrolyte was modified by PEG400 or EG while the nanotube morphology could not be observed on W substrate. In fabrication of composite film by pulse anodization technique, two types of composite film (W/WO[subscript 3]/TiO[subscript 2] and Ti/TiO[subscript 2]/WO[subscript 3]) were conducted. These composite films exhibit better photoelectrochemical response than the pure W/WO[subscript 3] and Ti/TiO[subscript 2], respectively. In addition, the well organized composite Ti/TiO[subscript 2]/WO[subscript 3] nanotube films were fabricated and gave the excellent photoelectrochemical performance reaching 7.7 mA cm[superscript -2]. Finally, photocatalytic reduction of hexavalent chromium and photocatalytic oxidation of methylene blue were studied under ultraviolet light using anodically growth Ti/TiO[subscript 2], W/WO[subscript 3] and composite films. Furthermore, visible light ([lambda] &gt; 400 nm) degradation of methylene blue using W/WO[subscript 3] films was studied. The photocatalytic degradation rate follow Langmuir–Hinshelwood model yields k = 0.687 [mu]M min[superscript -1] and K = 0.021 [mu]M[superscript -1].

title: Hypoglycemic effect in diabetic rats and antimicrobial activity of Malvastrum Coromandelianum Garcke Aqueous extract

description: Hypoglycemic effect of Malvastrum coromandelianum Garcke extract (ME), in normal and streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic male Wistar rats was demonstrated. For glucose tolerance test in normal rats, ME fed at doses 5, 10, and 20 mg/kg body weight significantly decreased blood glucose concentration at 30 min after feeding 1 g/kg body weight glucose. Feeding ME in non-fasted, diabetic rats at single doses of 10, 50 or 100 mg/kg body weight showed that ME at doses 50 and 100 mg/kg body weight significantly decreased blood glucose concentration at 1 hr and lasted through 6 hr to a level comparable to that of insulin injection, i.p., 5 IU/ kg body weight or of normal rats. Repeated-doses of ME were given orally to STZ-induced diabetic rats at 50, 100 and 500 mg/kg body weight/day or insulin injection at 5 IU/kg body weight/day or control diabetic group fed distilled water, for 30 days. ME fed daily in diabetic rats significantly decreased fasting blood glucose concentration observed on day 15 and 30 compared with diabetic rats treated with water in control group. In diabetic rat treated with insulin 5 IU/kg body weight/d., i.p., 50 mg ME/kg body weight and 500 mg ME/kg body weight/day, p.o., showed significantly decreased fasting plasma triglyceride level after treatment for 30 days. Fasting plasma cholesterol also decreased after daily treatment for 30 days of 50, 100 and 500 mg ME/kg. Histopathological examination did not show any abnormalities of the collected organs that could be attributed to toxicity of the extract either in normal rats or diabetic rats for such repeated doses. In vitro study indicated that ME showed no inhibitory effect on glucose absorption by using everted rat’s intestinal sac model. In acute toxicity test, feeding single doses of 100 mg, 10 and 20 g of ME/Kg body weight in normal rats showed similar profile in biochemical and hematological analysis of blood in treated and control groups on day 5. In subacute toxicity test, daily feeding of 100 mg, 10 g and 20 g of ME/kg body weight for 30 day in normal rats showed similar profile in biochemical and hematological analysis. ME was tested against Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 25923, Escherichia coli ATCC 25922, Enterococcus. faecalis ATCC 29212 and Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 27853, the result showed inhibition zone against only S. aureus ATCC 25923 by using agar diffusion method. ME gave inhibition zone against 6 out of 15 tests strains of each group of MSSA and MRSA. The broth macrodilution test showed that MICs and MBCs of ME against MSSA were 20 – 40 and 40-80 mg/ml, respectively. MICs and MBCs of ME against MRSA were 20 – 40 and 40 – 80 mg/ml respectively.

title: Effects of Curcuma comosa extracts on phase II drug metabolizing enzymes in rat liver

description: In the drug research and development process, drug-drug interaction is one of the process which is required to study either preclinically or clinically. Modulation of drug metabolism is one of the etiology of drug-drug interaction resulting in reduction of drug efficacy. These interaction associated with induction or inhibition at phase I metabolism or phase II metabolism. The objective of this study was to investigate effects of C. comosa hexane and ethanolic extracts on phase II drug metabolizing enzymes involving in drug metabolism such as UDP-glucuronoslytransferase (UDPGT), Sulfotransferase (SULT), Glutathione S-transferase (GST), and NAD(P)H quinoneoxidoreductase (NQOR) in rat liver. Fifty male Wistar rats were randomly divided into 5 groups of 10 rats each. Rats in the control group were given corn oil at 1 ml/kg/day whereas rats in group 2 and 3 received C. comosa hexane extract (which was dissolved in corn oil) orally at dosages of 250 and 500 mg/kg/day. Rats in group 4 and 5 received C. comosa ethanolic extract orally at dosages of 250 and 500 mg/kg/day. At the end of the extract administration (30 days), rats were anesthesized. Microsomes and cytosols were prepared from the livers for enzyme activity assays. The results showed that C. comosa hexane extracts at the dosages of 250 and 500 mg/kg/day significantly increased UDPGT activity whereas NQOR activity was significantly increased when C. comosa hexane extract at 500 mg/kg/day was given. Both extracts did not affect SULT and GST activities. These results indicated that co-administration of C. comosa hexane extract with some drugs that are metabolized by UDPGT and/or NQOR may affect drug level resulting in reduction of efficacy or increase of adverse drug reaction. In addition, an increase of UDPGT and NQOR activities by C. comosa indicated a potential benefit of this plant for a decrease risks of chemical-induced carcinogenesis and/or mutagenesis. Effects of C. comosa extracts on other phase II drug metabolizing enzymes should be further explored.

title: Phylogeography of the white-nest swiftlet Aerodramus fuciphagus (Thunberg, 1812) in Thailand

description: Originally the white-nest swiftlet, Aerodramus fuciphagus, lived in large colonies in natural caves on coastal islands, but now it also occurs in man-made buildings such as sacred buildings and swiftlet houses. The observations in this study found that colonies of A. fuciphagus in swiftlet houses have been widely expanded along the coastlines, ranging from the East through the South of the Gulf of Thailand and Andaman Sea. The majority of swiftlet houses are located on the mainland opposite the natural cave habitats on islands, at the river mouth areas and in urban areas. Due to the fact that the number of swiftlet buildings has been enormously increased in the past several years and that to date there is no official regulation or law for controlling the construction of swiftlet houses, negative impacts to human and natural ecosystems could occur in the future. Therefore, the studies on ecological impact and health risk assessment for setting the proper management plan are urgently needed. The genetic relationship of A. fuciphagus colonies was investigated using two mitochondrial DNA genes (cyt-b and ND2) and eight microsatellite loci among and within swiftlet colonies from across recently established man-made colonies in Thailand. Ten white-nest swiftlet colonies were sampled along the coast of the Gulf of Thailand and the Andaman Sea in Thailand. Genetic diversity of mtDNA was very low whereas that of microsatellite loci was high. Estimates of genetic differentiation, [phi][subscript st] (mtDNA) and F[subscript st] (microsatellites) values were very low and some negative values were found, indicating that genetic variability within colonies was higher than between colonies. Analyses of mtDNA haplotype relationships and microsatellite data did not detect genetic structure across the sampled distribution. Microsatellites were also analyzed using STRUCTURE and it was found that the number of subpopulations of white-nest swiftlets in sampled colonies was one (K = 1). The lack of genetic differentiation among swiftlet house colonies could be a result of high gene flow between colonies and large population sizes. The results suggest that A. fuciphagus living in recently established man-made houses in Thailand should be considered members of a single panmictic population.
