Two Omani projects among top 13 globally
MUSCAT: Two Omani research projects have been selected among the top 13 global projects to be showcased at the 66th edition of the London International Youth Science Forum (LIYSF) 2025.
Oman is represented at the forum by five innovative scientific projects, chosen from over 340 local innovative and research projects. The selection of two Omani projects for this elite global list reflects the excellence of Omani youth in scientific research and innovation.
Innovator Hala al Zaabi presented the project titled 'Tannova: an Omani Solution – Statistically Optimised Leachate Treatment with Date Pit Tannins and AOP.' This project offers an innovative environmental solution for treating industrial waste through eco-friendly methods that utilise local natural resources.
The second project by innovator Al Muntaser al Maamari, titled 'Ecofie: AI-Driven Green Hydrogen Production From Mesquite and Industrial Effluents', aims to develop and provide sustainable solutions in clean energy using artificial intelligence technologies.
The selection of these two projects embodies the level of scientific excellence achieved by youth in Oman and their growing role in presenting innovative research solutions to address global challenges, particularly in the fields of environment, energy and modern technologies. The forum, taking place in London, from July 23 to August 6, 2025, with the participation of elite researchers and talented students from various countries worldwide, is considered one of the most prominent scientific platforms. — ONA
