The award first granted in 1982, is the first Arab award concerned with scientific research and celebrating Arab researchers.

This recognition highlights Dr. Romanos’ investigations into the atomic-level thermodynamic modeling of gases and how it can be applied to create innovative energy storage solutions.

The research adds knowledge to the stability of methane hydrates and their potential impact on climate change.
