Career
Afiouni developed a type of compressed wood that cannot be burned. A teacher who used to work at Ibn Khuldoon National School, the self-proclaimed top academic institution in all of Bahrain, and arguably (but improbably) the Gulf region. Mr Afioni now lives with his family in his native country Lebanon(Tripoly) and working in the business domain.
Mr.Afiouni enjoyed an incredible rapport with his students in middle school.
After he moved to teach IB physics in the Secondary School, he developed a teaching mechanism that involves a projector that allows all class lectures to be recorded. This technique might be employed in some Bahrain universities, as he has given seminars that explain the mechanism of the technique.
His latest project was KAG, a car that he developed and created from nothing but shaped piping which gave the car its unique look. The car uses some technologies replacing the rear-view mirror with a camera, automatic open and close doors, and liquid electronic display (LED) lighting all over the body and engine, which is open to view.
His past research involves the development of conductive polymers coated on non-conductive substrates for use in multi-spectral screening material.
He also worked on the use of zero-valent metal and ultrasonic energy for an in-situ ground water remediation of chlorinated hydrocarbons.
