Dear Participants in the PACCON Conference
2024,
On behalf of Kasetsart University, I would like to
invite you to the Pure and Applied Chemistry International
Conference 2024. The conference will be held 26–27
January 2024 at the Bangkok International Trade &
Exhibition Centre (Bitec Bangna), Bangkok. The theme
of the conference is
“Chemistry for Bio-Circular-Green Economy.”
Kasetsart University is the largest university in Thailand.
As part of the university’s mission, we seek to build a
new generation of students with a passion for learning,
researching, and creating innovation that has a global
impact. KU promotes advanced research in diverse
fields of study and offers more than 50 international
degrees to undergraduate and graduate students.
Our university is particularly well-known for academic
excellence focusing on agriculture and forestry—this
year, according to the QS World University Rankings,
KU is ranked number 1 in Thailand and 53 in the world
for agriculture and forestry. Additionally, the UI
GreenMetric World University Rankings ranked KU
number 1 in Thailand and 40 in the world. We are
honored to gain this recognition as a green and
sustainable university.
Kasetsart University was founded in 1943 and on the
2nd of February 2023 we celebrated our 80 th Anniversary.
We are pleased to organize the PACCON conference as
a continuation of this special occasion.
The Department of Chemistry at Kasetsart University is
one of the best chemistry departments in Thailand. It
has three centers of excellence: Center of
Nanotechnology, Center of Excellence for Innovation in
Chemistry, and Center of Excellence-Palm Oil.
The research undertaken by these Centers focuses on
agricultural productivity, food safety, environmental
analysis and monitoring, natural products and drug
discovery, natural rubber and biodegradable polymer,
renewable energy, and nanomaterials. Each of the
areas of research follows Thailand’s BCG models, which
target four industries: agriculture and food, wellness and
medicine, materials and biochemicals, and tourism and
creative economy.
PACCON 2024 will be an excellent opportunity for
researchers to share their expertise and to explore new
ideas, discoveries, and innovations in chemistry and
related fields, especially those related to the BCG
model. It is also an excellent opportunity to meet old
friends and make new friends who share common
interests. I am confident that the conference and interaction
between participants will lead to strong collaboration
initiatives far into the future.
I wish you all the best and look forward to seeing you at
the Bangkok International Trade & Exhibition Centre
(Bitec Bangna) for the PACCON Conference, Chemistry
for Bio-Circular-Green Economy, 26–27 January 2024.
