Local education programmes on climate
1. Development of Thailand’s Air Pollutants and Greenhouse Gases (GHGs) Emission Inventory and Projection for Air Quality Simulations and Future Energy Related Emission Reduction Assessment (Phase VII)
This project aims to develop Thailand’s air pollutants and greenhouse gases (GHGs) emission inventory and projection for use in air quality models, in order to (1) assess air quality related issues at national and regional levels, in particular surface ozone and haze pollutions; (2) evaluate level and trends of key emission sources in Thailand against global and regional emission datasets; (3) document effective emission mitigation options to reduce ozone and haze pollution from energy related sectors over Thailand by developing future emissions under different future national energy demand scenarios; (4) evaluate cost-effectiveness or cost-benefit of emission mitigation options through source-receptor relationship analysis using air quality simulations outputs. The outputs and outcome of this project have been used by Pollution Control Department (PCD) to support air quality management policy measures formulation.
2. Estimation of Emission Reduction Potential of Air Pollutants from the Transportation Sector in Thailand
This study aims to better understand the situation of air pollution caused by the transportation sector in Thailand and to grasp an emission reduction potential by introducing emission mitigation measures such as Euro 5/6 in the country. Study results are to be submitted to the Ministry of the Environment of Japan as one of discussion items between the Government of Japan and the Government of Thailand in the environmental management field.
3. Precipitation Modeling in Greater Bangkok with Impact of Urbanized Land Cover and Air Oollution using WRF-Chem-UCM-GBK
This study prepared and configured WRF–Chem–UCM–GBK, a modeling system for advanced precipitation modeling in Greater Bangkok. It incorporates updated land–related data and urban parameters from our previous studies, and the latter supports the use of Single-Layer Urban Canopy Model. For emission data, they include a local inventory for GBK and a global inventory for areas outside GBK. Biogenic and fire emissions were also computed using available WRF-Chem processors. Three precipitation events selected for modeling are a general event in the summer (EV1), a general event in the wet season (EV2), and a heavy event in the wet season (EV3). Two double–nested domains at 10–km and 2–km resolutions and a set of physics and chemistry options were employed. Observation data from a network of stations and satellite-based precipitation data were used to evaluate model performance. For EV1, characterized by frontal precipitation over one single day, the model fails to produce precipitation over GBK due possibly to inability to capture frontal passage temporally. For EV2 and EV3, overall the model performs fairly. Due to the poor model performance in EV1, no reliable assessment can be made for the effects of urban physics and emissions for this event. Turned–off urban physics alone for EV2 tends to give more precipitation within and around GBK systematically partly because moisture is more easily transported to urban perimeters due to less surface roughness and no anthropogenic heat and heat storage by infrastructure are present to enhance convection within GBK. For EV3, abundant moisture dominantly regulates precipitation processes, precipitation difference then becomes less systematic. Turned–off emissions alone in EV2 tends to produce more precipitation within and around GBK, attributed partly to less aerosols to compete for available moisture and in turn large cloud droplets are more viable. But EV3 has less precipitation within GBK due partly to less aerosols to take up moisture to form clouds under the abundant moisture condition. Both turned–off urban physics and emissions appears to give the synergetic effects. These findings directly suggest the effects to be dependent on the type of precipitation event. In the end, a number of recommendations for future work are given.

Carbon Neutrality or Net Zero carbon emissions is one of the problem-solving models for the current seriousness of the climate change situation. A lot of organizations in many countries are increasingly aware of and have started making mitigation plans to tackle this severe problem. King Mongkut’s University of Technology Thonburi (KMUTT) as an educational institution responsible for disseminating new knowledge to society and taking part in driving the country’s policies, has prepared to deal with the global climate change resolving policy which is relevant to one of the KMUTT’s sustainability strategies. KMUTT also aims to be a part of an important movement that contributes to Thailand’s achievement in Carbon Neutrality Goals by the year 2050 according to the declaration of intent ‘KMUTT Carbon Neutrality 2040’ announced on November 2, 2021.

According to the study results and the collected data based on different scenarios of KMUTT policies on carbon dioxide emissions in 2019 (base year), KMUTT released about 16,720 tons of carbon dioxide, both direct and indirect emissions, resulting from the organization of various activities in all 4 campuses including KMUTT Bangmod, KMUTT Bang Khun Thian, KMUTT Ratchaburi, and KX Building (KX). The highest proportion of KMUTT carbon dioxide emissions is from electrical use which accounted for 94% of total emissions. KMUTT has launched its action plans for implementing the carbon dioxide emission measures to achieve its Carbon Neutrality goals by 2040. Those measures include the improvement of Energy Efficiency in all buildings by managing the electrical usage, developing smart building integration with the Renewable Energy and Energy Storage System which will lead to the Net Zero Energy Buildings, developing the District Cooling System and the “So Cool” Project for decreasing the temperature inside KMUTT by 1-2 degree Celsius, producing electricity from Renewable Energy by installing Solar PV panels on all potential building rooftops, changing KMUTT cars and buses to EV, conducting the Zero Waste Projects to reduce the amount of waste sent out for disposal through refusing to use single-use plastic measures, 3R measures, producing Refuse Derived Fuel (RDF) from waste and applying Circular Economy concepts.



The university alerted the PM 2.5 situation to students, personnel, and communities nearby the university. Regarding the amount of PM 2.5 which exceeded the standard value (50 mg / m3), which was in the level that begins to affect health.

1.Development of Thailand’s Air Pollutants and Greenhouse Gases (GHGs) Emission Inventory and Projection for Air Quality Simulations and Future Energy Related Emission Reduction Assessment (PhaseVII)
This project aims to develop Thailand’s air pollutants and greenhouse gases (GHGs) emission inventory and projection for use in air quality models, in order to (1) assess air quality related issues at national and regional levels, in particular surface ozone and haze pollutions; (2) evaluate level and trends of key emission sources in Thailand against global and regional emission datasets; (3) document effective emission mitigation options to reduce ozone and haze pollution from energy related sectors over Thailand by developing future emissions under different future national energy demand scenarios; (4) evaluate cost-effectiveness or cost-benefit of emission mitigation options through source-receptor relationship analysis using air quality simulations outputs. The outputs and outcome of this project have been used by Pollution Control Department (PCD) to support air quality management policy measures formulation.
2. Estimation of Emission Reduction Potential of Air Pollutants from the Transportation Sector in Thailand
This study aims to better understand the situation of air pollution caused by the transportation sector in Thailand and to grasp an emission reduction potential by introducing emission mitigation measures such as Euro 5/6 in the country. Study results are to be submitted to the Ministry of the Environment of Japan as one of discussion items between the Government of Japan and the Government of Thailand in the environmental management field.
3. Precipitation Modeling in Greater Bangkok with Impact of Urbanized Land Cover and Air Oollution using WRF-Chem-UCM-GBK
This study prepared and configured WRF–Chem–UCM–GBK, a modeling system for advanced precipitation modeling in Greater Bangkok. It incorporates updated land–related data and urban parameters from our previous studies, and the latter supports the use of Single-Layer Urban Canopy Model. For emission data, they include a local inventory for GBK and a global inventory for areas outside GBK. Biogenic and fire emissions were also computed using available WRF-Chem processors. Three precipitation events selected for modeling are a general event in the summer (EV1), a general event in the wet season (EV2), and a heavy event in the wet season (EV3). Two double–nested domains at 10–km and 2–km resolutions and a set of physics and chemistry options were employed. Observation data from a network of stations and satellite-based precipitation data were used to evaluate model performance. For EV1, characterized by frontal precipitation over one single day, the model fails to produce precipitation over GBK due possibly to inability to capture frontal passage temporally. For EV2 and EV3, overall the model performs fairly. Due to the poor model performance in EV1, no reliable assessment can be made for the effects of urban physics and emissions for this event. Turned–off urban physics alone for EV2 tends to give more precipitation within and around GBK systematically partly because moisture is more easily transported to urban perimeters due to less surface roughness and no anthropogenic heat and heat storage by infrastructure are present to enhance convection within GBK. For EV3, abundant moisture dominantly regulates precipitation processes, precipitation difference then becomes less systematic. Turned–off emissions alone in EV2 tends to produce more precipitation within and around GBK, attributed partly to less aerosols to compete for available moisture and in turn large cloud droplets are more viable. But EV3 has less precipitation within GBK due partly to less aerosols to take up moisture to form clouds under the abundant moisture condition. Both turned–off urban physics and emissions appears to give the synergetic effects. These findings directly suggest the effects to be dependent on the type of precipitation event. In the end, a number of recommendations for future work are given.
