Integrated IoT river monitoring network for real-time flood detection and water quality assessment in multi-station deployment /

By Siti Rasyidah binti Haji Ismail. Bandar Seri Begawan : Universiti Teknologi Brunei, 2025 . xiv, 155 pages : , Submitted for the partial fulfillment of the requirement for the degree of Master of Science in Computer Network and Security. | ABSTRACT Integrating mobile communication networks, with Internet of Things (loT) devices can provide a viable solution for early flood detection and mitigation strategies in flood-prone areas. This research examines how loT sensors have been deployed in flood-prone locations, areas near riversides, and roads that are susceptible to being affected by flood in Brunei Darussalam. By utilizing communication networks, loT devices can continuously monitor water levels in real-time enabling early detection of potential floods. This initiative incorporates a multidimensional approach, encompassing real-time monitoring of water quality, weather conditions, and water flow dynamics where experts assert that flooding have a significant impact on the water quality of water resources in rivers. The first monitoring region is along the riverbanks, where loT sensors provide alerts about flood events and changes in water quality allowing for mitigation efforts. The second monitoring covers road areas, where loT sensors detect and monitor the fluctuations in water level as a subsequent alert for prompt evacuation. Through an analysis of the deployment process, data collection methods, and operational effectiveness, this study showcases the effectiveness of flood monitoring systems powered by solar, ensuring energy efficiency and sustainability to improve community resilience and minimize the negative impacts of floods. These findings emphasize the significance of harnessing mobile communication networks to successfully implement solutions in flood areas providing valuable insights, for policymakers, urban planners and disaster management authorities striving to develop more resilient communities amidst climate change challenges.

Development of reduced-fat halal chicken sausages using emulsion gels containing whey protein isolate and guar gum /

By Nur Hamizah Haji Abd Hamid, Hajah. Bandar Seri Begawan : Universiti Teknologi Brunei , 2025 . xix, 312 pages : , Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the Doctor of Philosophy | ABSTRACT The study was conducted to evaluate the effect of whey protein isolate (WPI) and guar gum (GG) in emulsion gels on chemical, physical, antioxidant activity, and technological and sensory evaluation of chicken sausages. Nine different formulations of oil-in-water emulsion gels with three levels of inclusions (2%, 5%, 10 %) of fat substitute were prepared, analysed and compared with the control (CON - 100% chicken breasts) sample (without any fats). Three of the formulations are made up of PI only and six of the formulations are WPI and GG combinations, E treatments having 50% WPI and 50 % GG and GM treatments having 70% WPI and 30% GG. The physical properties of the chicken sausages studied were shown to be the most important for understanding sensory properties. The modified chicken sausages had high moisture, fat and ash content (p < 0.05) but low protein content (p < 0.05) compared to the control sausage. The protein, fat, ash, and carbohydrate contents for the formulated chicken sausages were significantly (p < 0.05) different, in the range from 15.58% to 20.71%, 11.59% to 16.83%, 4.88% to 6.61% and 27.86% to 34.77% respectively. The formulated sausages exhibited elevated average cooking losses of 13.26% (p < 0.05). Treatment E10 (50% WPI, 50% GG with 10% fats) had the highest cooking yield out of all treatments. Furthermore, the increase of WPI and GG mixture in the formulation was observed to improve the cooking yield (p <0.05) and showed to decrease the total expressible fluid (TEF%) significantly (p <0.05). The incorporation of WPI and GG, both alone and combined significantly increased (p < 0.05) moisture retention values of chicken sausages. The moisture retention of the sausages incorporated with WPI and GG ranged from 27.86% to 34.77%. Additionally, the results found that the addition of WPI and GG increased the percentage water-holding capacity (%WHC) but the values were lower than the control chicken sausages. Our results demonstrated that the pH values of the chicken sausages exhibited a significant upward trend (p < 0.05) during refrigeration and frozen storage. Water activity (Aw) decreased (p <0.05) during the 60-day storage period. Desirable ideal conditions for the treated sausages lie within freezer storage, with GM5 (70% WPI, 30% GG with 5% fats) having the lowest value of 0.33 Aw. Moreover, the sausage has higher total phenolic contents and high antioxidant capacities in DPPH (1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) Free Scavenging Method), which contributes to reducing lipid oxidations in sausages during storage. Although peroxide values remained below the acceptable threshold for oily food, the TBARS (Thiobarbituric Acid Reactive Substance (TBARS) Assay) value exceeded the permissible limit for lipid oxidation for both refrigerated and frozen storage, indicating that the products developed off-odour and flavour for both storage conditions. Additionally, the total viable count was not significantly affected (p > 0.05) by the addition of WPI and GG under freezer conditions. Consequently, it can be inferred that the cooked chicken sausages can be safely stored under frozen conditions for an extended period of 120 days. Similarly, the yeast and mould count increased (p > 0.05) in refrigerated storage and frozen storage. The modified chicken sausages had no apparent impact on the yeast and mould count for up to 60 days in frozen condition. The inclusion of WPI and GG changed the antioxidant activity of the chicken sausages differently. E treatments with greater GG concentration had higher total phenolic content than GM (70% WPI, 30% GG) treatments. In this study, a decreasing trend of total flavonoid content was demonstrated as the concentration of WPI alone and WPI/GG combinations increased, along with during the storage (p > 0.05). GM2 (70% WPI, 30% GG with 2% fats) recorded the highest percentage inhibition of DPPH in the whole treatment (68.64% on day 1, 60.45% on day 15 and 45.48% on day 60). Furthermore, E2 (50% WPI, 50% GG with 2% fats) exhibited the highest lethality value towards brine shrimp with LC50 (Lethal Concentration 50) of 1696 ug/mL, but it can be inferred that there are no active compounds that were found to be hazardous or induce the mortality of the brine shrimps. Textural properties decreased significantly (P < 0.05) throughout both storage conditions. The concentration of PI increased the firmness of the chicken sausages (p < 0.05). The addition of GG in WPI resulted in products with lower firmness, less elasticity, less cohesive and less gummy compared to other samples in refrigerated storage. Sensory evaluation showed that the panelists regarded the CON samples as being acceptable overall. Despite having the lowest texture scores, the panelists showed no significant preference, indicating that the addition of chicken sausage and the reduction of fat did not compromise the overall acceptability of chicken sausages. Overall, the chicken sausages treated had acceptable sensory scores independently of the added Overall, this study added to the scientific understanding of the inclusion and usefulness of WPI and GG as fat replacers in chicken sausage product developments. The combination of both WPI and GG has significant benefits in terms of WHC, CL (cooking loss), cooking yield and moisture retention. Further enhancement could be achieved through proper, better and optimized packaging strategies.

The Benefits of Spectral Gamma Ray Log For Clay Minerals Identification in Brunei's Wells and Outcrops /

By 'Amila Fashihah binti Haji Abu Bakar. Bandar Seri Begawan : Universiti Teknologi Brunei , 2025 . v, 109 pages : , Thesis submitted for the degree of Master of Science Universiti Teknologi Brunei | Shale and clay-rich formations pose significant challenges in the oil and gas industry, primarily due to wellbore instability issues such as shale sloughing and clay swelling. These problems arise when reactive clay minerals, particularly montmorillonite, interact with drilling fluids, resulting in hydration and subsequent volumetric expansion. In Brunei, most wells contain slurry montmorillonite, which presents a substantial risk of formation swelling and collapse when exposed to water-based drilling fluids. Consequently, the appropriate selection of drilling equipment, tools, and fluid systems is critical for maintaining wellbore stability and optimizing drilling performance. The integration of geomechanical analysis and advanced drilling fluid design plays a crucial role in mitigating these challenges, reducing non-productive time, and enhancing hydrocarbon recovery. This study aims to predict potential problematic zones by analyzing the distribution and proportion of mixed-layered clay minerals relative to residual clay compositions. A comprehensive geostatistical approach is employed to examine the spatial variability of radioactive elements such as thorium, potassium, and uranium within the formations. Variogram modeling and kriging interpolation techniques are utilized to establish correlations between these elements and clay mineral composition, offering insights into the geological and petrophysical characteristics of the subsurface. Additionally, the study applies cross-plotting techniques between thorium and potassium values, obtained through the Spectral Gamma Ray Logging (SGRL), to enhance clay mineral characterization. By integrating geostatistical analysis with spectral gamma-ray logging data, this research seeks to improve the identification and classification of clay minerals in Brunei’s subsurface formations. The findings are expected to contribute to more effective assessments of formation stability, aiding the development of optimized drilling strategies and reservoir management practices. Ultimately, this study enhances the understanding of clay mineral distributions, supporting improved wellbore design, increased drilling efficiency, and reduced formation-related challenges in hydrocarbon exploration and production. 30 cm..

Reformulation of Brunei's Traditional Kuih Sapit Using Fruit Based Natural Sugars /

By Hasna Basirah Binti Mazalan. Bandar Seri Begawan : Universiti Teknologi Brunei, 2025 . xi, 107 pages : , Dissertation Submitted in Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Science | ABSTRACT Brunei Darussalam, a Southeast Asian country rich in cultural heritage, is experiencing a shift towards contemporary lifestyles. This trend has sparked interest in the food industry to innovate traditional snacks to meet evolving consumer preferences for ready-to-eat and nutrient-dense options. This study focuses on reformulating kuih sapit or crispy egg rolls, which are traditional Brunei-Malay snacks by substituting white sugar with fruit-based natural sugars derived from banana (Musa acuminata cv. Berangan) and papaya (Carica papaya L. cv. Betik). The objective is to enhance the nutritional value of these snacks while preserving their flavour and health benefits for consumers. The experimental methodology involved both qualitative and quantitative analyses of 10 extracted fruit-based natural sugars and 10 reformulated kuih sapit samples. The analyses included consumer perception surveys, proximate composition analysis, physicochemical characterisation, antioxidant analysis (DPPH), cytotoxicity activity assessment, microbial analysis, and sensory evaluation. Based on consumer perception survey of 101 participants, kuih sapit was chosen for reformulation as the potential for innovation, as less research data are available compared to kuih bahulu and kuih cincin. Results indicated that the kuih sapit with M. acuminata cv. Berangan natural sugar and pectinase enzyme (KSBP) sample demonstrated the highest potential for hedonic acceptability (5.83+1.83) based on the 9.00 hedonic scale. From a nutritional perspective, KSBP stands out for its high protein content (0.50z 0.02 g/100g) and rich phenolic content of 51.82 # 0.00 mg GAE/g. Physicochemical analysis indicates KSBP has the highest hardness score of 7.74 ÷ 0.72, contributing to the second highest texture preference (5.90 ÷ 0.00) based on sensory analysis. It is also evaluated be safe for consumption based on the cytotoxicity assessment against PANC-1 cells, as cell viability indicated 87.82 ÷ 0.83% in high glucose medium and 78.52 ÷ 0.15% in low glucose medium. The findings highlighted the potential of using fruit-derived natural sugars to create healthier snack options, contributing to better public health outcomes. 30 cm.

Development and Application of Durian Seed Waste as Food Packaging : An Approach Toward Circular Economy /

By Siti Nur Asyifa Nazihah binti Andey Asmara. Bandar Seri Begawan : Universiti Teknologi Brunei , 2025 . xiii, 135 pages : , Thesis submitted for the degree of Master of Science in Food Science and Technology Universiti Teknologi Brunei | The escalating global crisis of plastic pollution calls for innovative and sustainable solutions to reduce reliance on conventional plastics. This study focuses on the development and application of biodegradable films derived from durian seed, assessing their potential for food packaging applications, including edible film and intelligent pH sensing film, in alignment with circular economy principles and waste valorisation. Durian seed-based films were formulated using varying concentrations of durian seed solution (2-10 wt%). All films were examined for their mechanical, chemical, and thermal properties. The optimal film was identified at 10 wt% and exhibited a thickness of 0.335 ±0.068 mm, tensile strength of 0.24±0.01 MPa and elongation at break of 158.40±50.71%. A hydrophobicity angle of 93.73 ± 0.65° indicated significant water resistance. Thermal analysis confirmed increased heat stability at higher concentration, while morphological studies revealed uniform film dispersion with no cracks and voids. The film also demonstrated an opacity value of 0.81 mm⁻¹, making it suitable for the application of biodegradable and edible packaging. For edible film application, food samples wrapped in durian-seed based films exhibited significantly lower increases in moisture content compared with commercial food wrappers. To enhance functionality and scalability, butterfly pea flower extract was incorporated as a secondary material for pH-responsive application. The durian seed-based pH sensing film exhibited visually perceptible colour changes between pH 1-12. During the storage of fish samples over 5 days, the colour of the film changed from blue to greyish green with an increase of pH from 6.8 to 9.3 which was a clear indication of spoilage of food material. The optimised durian seed starch film incorporated with carboxymethyl cellulose demonstrated promising properties, but it cannot fully replace conventional packaging, hence further refinement is needed to improve reliability. Overall, this research underscores the dual benefits of reducing food waste and combating plastic pollution, offering a biodegradable alternative for food packaging applications. 30 cm..

Revamping End-of Life Waste Management in Buildings /

By Nurul Ahsha Binti Haji Roslan. Bandar Seri Begawan: Universiti Teknologi Brunei, 2025 . xii, 199 pages : , Dissertation Submitted in Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master in Science | ABSTRACT Waste generated from demolition of buildings at their end-of-life (BOL) stage forms the highest volume in construction. Most of such wastes are thrown away, although they contain higher share of recoverable materials and components, and contribute to environmental degradation, economic loss and resource depletion. This can be significantly saved by deploying the principles of Circular Economy (CE), through using building information modelling (BIM) and extensively practicing alternate/modern methods of construction (MMC). However, country specific design and waste management practices should be identified and included in a regulatory framework, along with their barriers and relevant strategies. This study was approached through the multiple methods of structured literature review, a questionnaire survey, and a mini validation survey. The literature review offered insights and inter-relatedness between CE and MMC in reducing EOL waste, and how BIM can assist in their practice. The questionnaire survey assessed industry awareness on the conceptualization, identified underlying issues and prioritized various strategies/methods of CE underpinned BIM-based MMC practices. Overall, the findings revealed that although construction stakeholders are generally aware of EOL waste management, the lack of education and training is perceived as a major factor hindering its effective implementation. Stakeholders noted that BIM, particularly its cost-benefit analysis feature, can play a crucial role in helping companies make informed decisions and reduce long-term costs, thereby supporting EOL waste practices. Consequently, the most strategic course of action is to implement clear guidelines for the use of recycled or recovered construction materials, along with strengthened government support. A framework was formulated based on these survey outcomes, which was refined, further developed and validated through the interview-based mini validation survey. This framework presents the existing waste management practices, highlighting the generation and flow of waste from the initial extraction of raw materials to the final disposal. For the proposed EOL waste management, the framework then emphasizes on the design phase, particularly through the integration of various CE underpinned BIM-based MMC techniques, and the EOL phase to promote CE underpinned conservation efforts namely reduce, reuse, and recycle. It also clarifies how recovered materials can be effectively repurposed in new construction, eventually contributing to more efficient and environmentally friendly practices in the industry. As such, this framework will further empower regulators to establish effective policies while providing implementers with a clear roadmap for adopting CE-supported EOL waste management practices. 30 cm.

Implementing Adaptive Reuse for Existing Buildings in Brunei Darussalam /

By Mohammad Nor Adha Shah bin Sarugi. Bandar Seri Begawan: Universiti Teknologi Brunei, 2025 . xiii, 137 pages : , Dissertation Submitted in Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Science | ABSTRACT This study investigates adaptive reuse as a sustainable strategy for existing buildings in Brunei Darussalam, positioning it as an alternative to demolition and new construction. The research employed a mixed-methods approach consisting of professional interviews with eight industry experts, a public perception survey, a case study of Panggong Bolkiah, and a review of relevant policies and regulations. The objectives were to identify the benefits of adaptive reuse, examine institutional and technical barriers, assess the applicability of international strategies, and propose a context-sensitive implementation framework. Findings demonstrate that adaptive reuse can generate economic and environmental advantages while supporting cultural continuity. However, significant challenges persist, including regulatory ambiguity, financial uncertainty, and limited public awareness. Comparative insights from Malaysia highlighted useful strategies but also revealed the need for frameworks tailored to Brunei's regulatory and cultural conditions. In response, a four-stage Adaptive Reuse Implementation Framework was developed, comprising Feasibility and Policy Alignment, Design Development and Technical Assessment, Implementation and Construction, and Post-Occupancy Evaluation and Monitoring. The framework was refined through a two-round Delphi exercise with professionals, which provided expert feedback and improved its structure. Nevertheless, the framework remains exploratory as it was not tested in practice. The study concludes that adaptive reuse holds promise for advancing Brunei's sustainable development goals but requires stronger policy support, clearer legal mechanisms, and broader community engagement. Key limitations include the small number of professional participants, the limited scope of public input, and the preliminary nature of the framework validation. Future research should focus on pilot project testing, expanding stakeholder participation, and conducting deeper policy analysis to strengthen adaptive reuse practice in Brunei Darussalam.
