During the spread of the coronavirus disease 2019 <\/span><\/font>(COVID-19), the development of innovative medical devices <\/span>to take care of patients and to prevent the spread of germs <\/span>are of significant importance. A proper identification <\/span>of research and product development requires close <\/span>collaboration between researchers, manufacturers, users, and <\/span>agencies that supervise relevant regulations and standards, <\/span>thus accelerating the transition from prototype to production <\/span>and allowing for prompt delivery to the users as planned. <\/span>Curently, MTEC\u2019s recent works are developed in response to <\/span>COVID-19 on research management that focus on practicality.<\/span><\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the Thai government had declared the <\/span>BCG (Bio-Circular-Green) economy model to be part of the <\/span>National Agenda in January 2021. MTEC thus responded to <\/span>this policy by revising the R&D management plan to develop <\/span>prototypes and design products and their manufacturing <\/span>processes in conformity with the circular economy <\/span>concepts that focuses on 3 principles, namely (1) Reduction in <\/span>resource consumption and Promotion of recycled material <\/span>usage (2) Preservation of material value, and (3) Retrieval <\/span>of the unusable an unused portion. Materials technology <\/span>plays an important role in driving the circular economy <\/span>from the very beginning by designing and developing <\/span>products to reduce the use of resources, as well as promoting <\/span>recycling, such as Design for Disassembly (DfD), materials <\/span>development and selection that are compatible with the <\/span>management system, and selection of the chemical that <\/span>are not harmful to the recycling system and environment.<\/span><\/p>

The world is changing rapidly and disruptions occur <\/span>more frequently than ever. MTEC, therefore, has planned <\/span>to cope with these changes through systematic management <\/span>and data analysis by focusing on strengthening materials <\/span>science and engineering design as the basis for further <\/span>development and synergy with other disciplines to <\/span>enhance the country\u2019s competitiveness, achieve sustainable <\/span>production, and bring about a good quality of life. MTEC <\/span>realizes that the collaboration between all stakeholders is <\/span>the most critical factor in achieving operational excellence, <\/span>overcoming obstacles and ensuring accomplishment. MTEC <\/span>also places high importance on planning and developing <\/span>research agenda with stakeholders in all aspects, especially <\/span>the critical product features that truly respond to the needs <\/span>of the users, thus increasing the prospect of the actual use <\/span>of the output of research works.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
