The King of Jordan congratulates Professor Omar Yaghi on winning the 2025 Nobel Prize in Chemistry
The King of Jordan, King Abdullah II, congratulated Professor Omar Yaghi on the occasion of his winning the Nobel Prize in Chemistry for the year 2025.
The King of Jordan said, in a post on the In various fields around the world, it proves that Jordanians are capable of making a difference wherever they are.”
Jordanian scientist Omar Yaghi, today, Wednesday, won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry for the year 2025, in recognition of his pioneering contributions to the development of “metal-organic frameworks.” (MOFs), revolutionary materials that have brought about a major transformation in the field of chemistry and advanced materials.
Omar Yaghi, born in Amman in 1965, is one of the most prominent scientists in chemistry in the world. He holds a doctorate from the University of Illinois at Chicago, worked as a professor at the University of California, Berkeley, and co-founded several startup companies to apply metal-organic framework technologies in carbon capture. And extracting water from the air and storing hydrogen.
Metal organic frameworks (MOFs) are among the most prominent scientific innovations in the field of modern chemistry, as they are used to extract water from the air in desert areas, trap carbon dioxide, purify water from pollutants, and store gases in an effective way.
