Liang-Shih Fan's research focuses on multiphase flow systems (gas, solid particles, liquids) and chemical looping technologies, which are processes that use metal-oxide particles to carry oxygen between reaction steps for cleaner production of hydrogen, syngas, and other chemicals. His work combines fundamental fluid dynamics and particle behavior modeling, increasingly using machine learning, with applied energy technologies like fluidized beds and reactors for hydrogen production and emissions reduction.
