ICCEM Soft-Launches Student-Developed Plastic Sorting Machine

The Institute for Climate Change and Environmental Management (ICCEM), in partnership with the Department of Information Technology, ASKI Foundation, and Coca-Cola, soft-launched a new Plastic Sorting Machine, to help manage waste on campus. This was held on March 12, 2025, at the OVPAA Amphitheater as part of the weeklong anniversary celebration of ICCEM. Three ICCEM interns namely, Mr. Leusam Jay G. Jimenez, Mr. Erroyd Kevin G. Tolentino, and Mr. Jay Raizen M. Musngi from the Department of Information Technology, under the guidance of their adviser, Asst.Prof. Marycris A. Manalang, developed an innovative sorter equipped with a specialized system capable of categorizing polyethylene terephthalate (PET) bottles into five classifications - Clean, Not Clean, Good Plastic, Blue, and Reject. The said machine will decrease the manpower required for the sorting of different plastic types, while also fostering environmental sustainability through encouraging students to practice responsible plastic waste disposal. University President Dr. Evaristo A. Abella expressed his congratulatory words and gratitude to the interns and other people behind its success.

Int’l Collab Fuels Tilapia Vaccine Breakthrough

Dr. Alvin T. Reyes, a faculty researcher at the College of Fisheries (CoF) and the Freshwater Aquaculture Center (FAC), has achieved a significant breakthrough in aquaculture by developing an inactivated vaccine formulated with hydrogen peroxide to prevent major bacterial pathogens that threaten red Nile tilapia production. The bacterial pathogen called Streptococcus agalactiae poses a serious threat to large-scale tilapia aquaculture operations in the ASEAN region, resulting in substantial economic losses. Collaborating with Dr. Chanagun Chitmanat, a senior researcher at Maejo University, Dr. Reyes has introduced a practical and effective approach to enhancing fish health and sustainability in aquaculture. The vaccine has been tested on experimental fish, and while the final study results are still pending, initial observations indicate promising efficacy in protecting against bacterial infection. Dr. Reyes expressed optimism, stating, “We are hopeful for positive results, even though the final study results are still being processed.” The collaboration between Central Luzon State University (CLSU) and Maejo University was crucial in the vaccine’s development. Access to Maejo University's advanced laboratories and research methods significantly aided in the rigorous testing and refinement of the vaccine. This partnership underscores the importance of international collaboration in tackling critical challenges within the aquaculture sector. #CLSUR4D #SievingForExcellence #SDG14
