Welcome to the Yan Group 

We are an electrochemical engineering group that focuses on the catalysis and polymer electrolytes used in hydroxide exchange membrane (HEM)-based electrochemical devices such as electrolyzers, fuel cells, and carbon capture technology.

Center for Clean Hydrogen

Professor Yan

Yushan Yan is the Henry Belin du Pont Chair in Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering at the University of Delaware. He is the founding director of the Center for Clean Hydrogen launched in 2022 to accelerate the transition to clean energy by reducing the cost of hydrogen and hydrogen-related technologies.  He specializes in electrochemical engineering and develops catalysts and membranes for green hydrogen, fuel cells, and carbon capture in hopes of creating cheaper, more durable products.
