About:Wang is an associate research professor at Penn State. Wang received a B.S. in chemistry from Zhejiang Normal University in China and a Ph.D. in catalysis, physical chemistry from Xiamen University in China. After graduation, Wang joined Penn State as a postdoctoral researcher. He specializes in catalytic conversion of energy resources, including petroleum, natural gas, and biomass, and the synthesis, characterization, and evaluation of porous functional materials, such as microporous and mesoporous materials for energy related applications. His current research interests include catalysis and adsorption for fuel processing, desulfurization/purification of bio-gas, natural gas, and other fuel gases, reforming of hydrocarbons and bio-fuels for hydrogen production and carbon dioxide capture, conversion, and utilization. He has published more than fifty peer-reviewed journal articles and one book chapter; holds two U.S. patents and two world patents; and has delivered eighty-four presentations and twelve invited talks at international/ national conferences/workshops. Wang is a guest associate editor in carbon capture, storage, and utilization, and a review editor in catalytic engineering for the Journal of Frontiers in Energy Research. Wang is also a recipient of the Outstanding Young Researcher Award at the Fifteenth International Conference on Carbon Dioxide Utilization.Research Interests:• Carbon dioxide capture, conversion, and utilization• Gas separation and purification • Plasma catalysis for CO2 and methane conversion • Material synthesis, characterization and application for catalysis and adsorption Memberships & Committees:Service to the Profession• Member of Technical Program for the 12th International Conference on Carbon Dioxide Utilization (ICCDU-XII), Alexandria, VA, June 23– 27, 2013. • Session Organizer/Chair for the 12th International Conference on Carbon Dioxide Utilization (ICCDU-XII), • Session on CO2 Utilization for Plasma Processing and Thermochemical Cycles, Alexandria, VA, June 23–27, 2013. • Session Organizer/Chair for the 12th International Conference on Carbon Dioxide Utilization (ICCDU-XII), • Session on CO2 Utilization for Reforming and Gasification, Alexandria, VA, June 23–27, 2013. • Symposium Organizer/co-Chair, Symposium in Honor of Prof. Chunshan Song, 2011 PETR Outstanding Researcher, American Chemical Society, Petroleum Chemistry Division, Denver, CO, August 28 – September 1, 2011. • Award Reviewer: Outstanding Student Award, American Chemical Society Spring Meeting, Division of Petroleum Chemistry, Anaheim, CA, March 2011; and American Chemical Society Spring Meeting, Division of Petroleum Chemistry, Denver, CO, August 2011. • Manuscript Reviews (66): Year (total #) – Journal (#) 2006 – 2008 (12) – AIChE Journal (1); Fuel (2); Fuel Processing Technology (3); Topics in Catalysis (1); Journal of American Chemical Society (2); Journal of Catalysis (1); Microporous and Mesoporous Materials (2) • 2009 (7) – Chemical and Biochemical Engineering Quarterly Journal (1); Fuel Processing Technology (4); Langmuir (2) • 2010 (10) – Catalysis Today (1); Energy & Fuels (1); Fuel Processing Technology (4); Journal of Physical Chemistry C (2); Microporous and Mesoporous Materials (2). • 2011 (19) – Chemical Communications (1); Energy & Environmental Science (3); Fuel Processing Technology (5); Green Chemistry (2); Journal of Materials Chemistry (2); Langmuir (1); Microporous and Mesoporous Materials (3); RSC Advances (2). • 2012 (21) – Energy & Environmental Science (1); Fuel Processing Technology (2); Green Chemistry (11); Industrial & Engineering Chemistry Research (1); Langmuir (1); Microporous and Mesoporous Materials (1); Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (1); RSC Advances (3).
