Abstract

The research project series entitled “Developing community innovations for managing and building a foundation economy and a circular economy in community areas in Phetchaburi Province” aimed to create innovative communities and knowledge sets to develop people in the community to have a better quality of life and preserved the environment by applying community innovation, including the creation of local innovators, and introducing innovation into the district development plan, transfer knowledge and innovations that are appropriate to the target group context. The research intended to create a circular economy and upgrade the basic economy in the community, Ban Laem District, Phetchaburi Province. In addition to conducting research, the expanded work is dedicated to developing a mechanism for research management especially for Rajamangala University of Technology Phra Nakhon to be strong and able to support innovative research systems to help develop highly potential areas. The research program mentioned has been conducted by The Research and Development Institute, an important unit acting as a research manager with duties in managing and maintain the overall research works until achieving the objective goals. By conducting research in the area of Ban Laem District Phetchaburi Province, the collaboration with the area-based agencies was done at the subdistrict level, totaling 10 units, consisting of
1) Bang Khrok Subdistrict Administrative Organization
2) Ban Laem Subdistrict Administrative Organization
3) Khun Sai Subdistrict Administrative Organization
4) Bang Tabun Subdistrict Administrative Organization
5) Bang Tabun Subdistrict Administrative Organization
6) Tha Raeng Subdistrict Administrative Organization
7) Pak Thale Subdistrict Administrative Organization
8) Bang Kaeo Subdistrict Administrative Organization
9) Laem Phak Bia Subdistrict Administrative Organization and
10) Tha Raeng-Ok Subdistrict Administrative Organization.

The output from the research series created 9 sub-projects which was comprised of more than 15 innovations including:
1) Innovation of online learning center (Innovations.rmutp.ac.th)
2) Innovation of pure culture of microorganism for shrimp feed
3) Innovation of premix formula in shrimp feed
4) Innovation of a hot extruder for white shrimp feed production
5) Innovation of a fertilizer pellet machine
6) Innovation of a rotary disk molding machine for fertilizer seed
7) Innovation of energy-saving mixer
8) Innovation of a fertilizer mixture sorting machine
9) Innovation of waste incinerator
10) Innovation of an incinerator for wood wastes
11) A waste trap with accessories with appropriate technology for community
12) Packaging innovation 7 for economic aquaculture feed
13) Packaging Innovation for processed seafood
14) innovation of packaging for organic fertilizer
15) Innovation of participatory marketing model for economic aquaculture feed and marine food processing products
16) Innovation of drying greenhouses and marine processed products for the household industry on a limited space
17) Innovation of a solar and infrared light- drying machine. The research could create a total of 37 innovators composed of 5 young researchers and 27 students who are participated in the project.

Additionally, it produced 10 learning manuals, developing innovators courses that has been used to develop innovators from diverse project series but still within the framework of a spatial context. The Learning and Innovation platform was created for Ban Laem District to serve as an online learning center for innovators. The innovators have used it as a tool to broadcast in the community. The project series brought all innovations into the development plan for all 10 sub-districts through a cooperation with the president of the sub-district administrative organization. Their outputs were next delivered to the Governor of Phetchaburi Province. Some of the innovations of the project have already been used in the sub-district development plan. Every innovation delivered to the area has been taken into a foundation economy and a circular economy in the Phetchaburi community area to increase income by more than 10%. At Rajamangala University of Technology Phra Nakhon, training programs have been set to develop teachers, researchers in the project, and staffs of the Research and Development Institute. These people have gained knowledges in many dimensions. In addition, a mechanism for research management was applied to strengthen and support innovative research systems for highefficient area-based development. Research and development institute staffs were developed and trained as research managers, and gained more experience by working with researchers, participated working on-site, collecting and extracting data, and storing it in a centralized database. Even though the research was completed, Rajamangala University of Technology Phra Nakhon and the research team have continued to work on-site in a consultative manner, transfer knowledge, and perform academic services to the community through the Sub-District Administrative Organization in Ban Laem District Phetchaburi Province. The outcomes were thus expanded and impacts of the research were also driven on a broader scale.
