Bottom line is you can't.

PNG won't save adjustment layers.

A PSD file will save adjustment layers and you can also save adjustment presets but they are only saving the details of the adjustment to be applied by Photoshop when rendering the image. Without Photoshop to render the file, the details of the adjustment and the presets will do nothing.  If you want to make use of Photoshop adjustment layers then you need to use Photoshop.
