The
Center of Excellence in Particle Technology (CEPT)
TPTC and PTMP have recently merged their activities into
a Center of Excellence in Particle Technology in CU. The
objectives are to specialize in research investigation in
and generate fundamental knowledge in PT, in order to design
and develop new products and apparatuses in Thailand to
reduce the reliance on imported equipment, including the
developmentof relevant pollution control technology.
The Center of Excellence in Particle Technology has officially
been recognized by Chulalongkorn University under CU’s 5-year
TJTTP-JBIC Scheme. As mentioned above, since 2002 CEPT has
been designated as a member of MTEC Technology Network (Particle
Technology and Particulate Materials Unit) and received
annual subsidy from both CU and MTEC.

Objectives of CEPT
1.
To carry out research and development of products and processes
as well as the application and creation of knowledge in
Particle Technology and Nanomaterials
2. To produce human resources at the Bachelor, Master and
Ph.D. levels as well as researchers with core expertise
in Particle Technology and Nanomaterials
3. To disseminate and transfer Particle Technology as well
as provide technology consultations and technical services
concerning Particle Technology to interested industrial
parties
4. To support and collaborate with related organizations
in and outside Thailand in order to strengthen the capability
of the industry in Thailand to stand on its own and to be
competitive with other countries
5. To survey the current situation and future trend of Particle
Technology, including Nanotechnology, in the developed countries

Thai
Powder Technology Center (TPTC)
In 1993 the Faculty of Engineering,
Chulalongkorn University, set up a center to promote Powder
Technology in Thailand with strong support from The Association
of Powder Process Industry and Engineering, Japan (APPIE)
and The Society of Powder Technology, Japan (SPTJ).
Thirty-two TPTC-supporting corporate
members of APPIE donated over 20 pieces of powder technology
apparatuses and provided annual subsidy for TPTC’s operation
without any string attached. Simultaneously, SPTJ has agreed
to render technical cooperation and dispatch experts to
promote technology transfer and hold seminars. In 1998 a
sister Association of Thai Particle Industries was set up
as a separate legal entity.

the industrial and educational/ research sectors of Thailand
2. Organize technical seminars, including joint international
meetings with foreign organizations in order to transfer
and promote Particle Technology from the fundamental level
to advanced level
3. Join heads with other organizations and institutions
in organizing Particle Technology seminars in Thailand
4. Collaborate with the industrial sector and/ or external/
internal organizations in implementing research and development
projects
5. Provide experimental and testing services concerning
Particle Technology, including technical advice to CU students
and the public

Particle
Technology and Material Processing Laboratory (PTMP)
Soon after TPTC was established, Dr. Wiwut et al. set
up PTMP in the Department of Chemical Engineering, Chulalongkorn
University, to generate new knowledge and train new researchers
as well as carry out R&D focused on Particle Technology
and its applications for supporting Thailand’s diverse
industries.

Thai
Association for Particle Industries (TAPI)
In 1998, TPTC cooperated with a number of Thai
academic institutions and corporations in establishing Thai
Association for Particle Industries (TAPI), the first legally
registered non-profit association for the promotion of Particle
Technology in Thailand. Its stated mission includes technical
consultation, research implementation, and presentation/
publication of research results as well as promoting technological
advancement, standardization system and standard methods
in PT industries. In addition, TAPI closely cooperates with
TPTC in the organization of seminars, symposia and exhibitions.

Particle
Technology and Particulate Materials Unit
Particle Technology and Particulate Materials Unit (PTPM),
Chulalongkorn University, was established as the operating
unit of Center of Excellence on Particle Technology through
the combination of the activities of Thai Powder Technology
Center (TPTC), College of Engineering , and Particle Technology
and Material Processing (PTMP) Research Laboratory, Department
of Chemical Engineering. PTPM
will receive several major pieces of research equipment
from Thailand-Japan Technology Transfer Project (TJTTP)
of Chulalongkorn University and financial support from MTEC.
Our expertise or core competence may be classified into
the following three sub-areas
- Development
of Particulate Materials
- Separation
Technology
- Computer
Modeling and Simulation
Special seminar and internal
meeting
Objectives
1. To carry out research and development of products and
processes as well as the application and creation of knowledge
in Particle Technology
2. To produce human resourses at the Bachelor, Master and
Ph.D. level as well as researchers with core expertise in
Particle Technology
3. To disseminate and transfer Particle Technology as well
as provide technical consultations and technical services
concerning Particle Technology to interested industrial
plants
4. To support and collaborate with related organizations
in and outside Thailand in order to strengthen the capability
of industry in Thailand to stand on its own and to be competitive
with other countries
5. To survey the current situation and future trend of Particle
Technology in the developed countries |
