The signing ceremony for the memorandum of understanding (MOU) on the “Zero Construction Wastes and Upcycling Products” project between Siamese Asset PCL, Ritta Co., Ltd., and the Faculty of Engineering, Chulalongkorn University, took place at Siamese Club, 22nd floor, Cassia Rama 9 Bangkok by Banyan Tree Group.
This collaboration reflects the shared recognition of the intensifying global climate change crisis, which affects the quality of life and societal well-being while posing challenges to various aspects of security. The construction industry, as a key driver of economic development, requires significant natural resources and energy throughout its operational cycle and generates a substantial amount of waste.
This presents an important opportunity to establish policies and strategies for efficient waste management, reducing waste generation, and repurposing waste into higher-value products for reuse. This approach promotes the efficient use of resources, reduces greenhouse gas emissions, and, importantly, lowers costs while enhancing competitiveness in the low-carbon economy both domestically and internationally.
The objectives of this memorandum of understanding (MOU) are as follows:
- To develop new knowledge, products, and best practices that serve as models and guidelines for applications in commercial, academic, and social contexts.
- To promote the practical application of knowledge and research outcomes in the construction industry and related industries, contributing to sustainable development.
- To encourage and support undergraduate and postgraduate students from the Faculty of Engineering, Chulalongkorn University, to gain opportunities for internships, cooperative education, and research under the supervision and guidance of experienced personnel from all three parties involved.
