Mr. Yang Wu | Zhejiang University | China

Mr. Yang Wu is a dedicated researcher in power and energy engineering whose work centers on hydrogen storage and cryogenic adsorption for enhancing the safety and performance of liquid hydrogen (LH) systems. His research investigates how residual gases compromise high-vacuum multilayer insulation in LH tanks and explores advanced adsorbent materials, including metal oxides, zeolites, and cryogenic compounds, to improve gas removal efficiency. With several peer-reviewed publications, including a comprehensive review on materials, methods, and integrated systems for LH storage, Yang Wu’s studies establish new perspectives on adsorbent selection and system integration. His ongoing projects focus on experimental evaluation of cryogenic adsorbents and the conceptual development of a residual-gas scavenging module to optimize LH tank reliability. By bridging materials science, thermodynamics, and engineering design, his work contributes significantly to defining standardized testing methods and advancing next-generation hydrogen storage technologies. Through his innovative approach, Yang Wu provides a foundation for safer, more efficient, and sustainable cryogenic storage systems that support the global transition to clean hydrogen energy.
