Abu Dhabi, UAE – Khalifa University of Science and Technology showcases a range of pioneering projects and solutions in the fields of artificial intelligence and sustainability.
This was during her participation in the World Future Energy Summit 2026 in Abu Dhabi.
Professor Bayan Sharif, Academic President at Khalifa University, said that the university’s projects reflect some of the most prominent pivotal technologies in the fields of artificial intelligence and sustainability, which emerged from its main research centers, and cover diverse applications including “intelligent waste sorting”, “advanced water desalination”, and “Desert agriculture technologies”.
He added that the university, by integrating artificial intelligence and pioneering solutions in the water, energy and agriculture sectors, constitutes a world in which smart systems and sustainable practices combine to ensure the survival of the planet for future generations.
During the summit, Khalifa University Projects Company, the university’s commercial arm, will present to commercial marketing two technologies with high potential and clear paths.
The first is sustainable solutions to improve soil properties extracted from plant-derived agricultural waste fibres.
The second is a solvent-based material separation process using a tubular reactor to enable efficient recycling of photovoltaic modules.
The projects reviewed by the university also include a self-sorting device for materials based on artificial intelligence and functional membranes supported by 2D motion technology for water treatment and desalination.
In addition, members of Khalifa University’s Young Leaders for Future Energy program will present their project proposals, participate in dialogue sessions, and network with business leaders.
In addition to attending a variety of sessions at the World Future Energy Summit.
