His work includes ecological improvements of the Red Sea reef, where damage began in 1997 with the advent of fish farming, resulting from tons of waste into the reef.[1] Kahn appeared on Time magazine's list of "Heroes of the Environment" October 2007.[2][3] Kahn's work has been done largely through Zalul Environmental Association, an environmental non-profit organization founded by his billionaire father and dedicated to protecting the seas and rivers in Israel. Kahn serves as chairman of Zalul.[2][4][1][5]
Kahn is the founder and CEO of Atlantium Technologies, a water purification technology firm established in 2005 that developed a hydro-optic ultraviolet technology used as a non-chemical means to control biofouling.[6][4] In 2017, Atlantium was chosen to install this system to prevent the clogging of piping at the Hoover Dam by quagga mussels.[4]
Kahn is the president of Coral World International Ltd, an operator of marine parks that specializes in ecologically-friendly tropical life systems in symbiotic environments.[7]
