Sukhothai Thammmathirat Open University (STOU) has taken a significant step towards environmental sustainability. On 6 September 2024, the university delivered over 100 kg of obsolete electronic equipment to SK tes Thailand Company. This donation marks the conclusion of a 3-4 month-long campaign to collect and properly dispose of unusable electronics. By partnering with a specialized recycling company, STOU ensures that these devices are handled responsibly, reducing their negative impact on the environment and maximizing the potential for resource recovery.
On the same day, led by Assoc. Prof. Dr. Gan Chanyawudhiwan, Acting Vice-President for Academic Services, Cultural Preservation, and International Affairs, STOU delivered ‘orphan waste’ to the Head Office Power Plants Dams of the Electricity Generating Authority of Thailand (EGAT) as part of an N15 Technology project.
“Orphan waste” refers to waste that unrecycleable or sold for value, but can be cut and incinerated, such as fabric scraps, old clothes, fabric softener bags, mousepads, plastic cups, sponges, toothbrushes, expired medicines, etc. N15 Technology is a leader in managing non-hazardous community and industrial waste. Orphan waste is processed using modern technology to produce quality RDF (Refuse Derived Fuel), which is then supplied to cement plants and waste-to-energy power plants as a coal substitute for cement kiln combustion, instead of sending this waste to landfills in various provinces.
These activities aligned with the Green University Project, not only enhancing environmental sustainability but also making a positive contribution to society.
Sukhothai Thammathirat Open University (STOU) made a difference in the lives of rural students by donating educational and sports equipment to Klongjang Wittaya School in Nakhon Ratchasima on 13 September 2024. STOU led the “STOU Voluntary for Overcoming Barriers to Education for Children in Rural Areas” initiative.
This initiative aims to empower young minds and inspire a love of learning among students and teachers in resource-limited rural areas like Klongjang Wittaya School, which continues to face water scarcity, particularly during the dry season. The activity was led by Asst. Prof. Witoon Wong-A-Mart, Director of the Department of Corporate Communications, and was supported by the STOU Nakhon Ratchasima Student Club.
