One of the options to reduce industrial energy costs and the environmental impact is to
recover the waste-heat produce in some processes. This paper proposes the use of …

Thermoelectricity, in the form of thermoelectric generators, holds a great potential in waste
heat recovery, this potential has been studied and proved in several laboratory and …

Waste heat generation has a widespread presence into daily applications, however, due to
the low-temperature grade which presents, its exploitation with the most common …

The use of waste heat from exhaust gas of internal combustion engines in power plants and
CHP plants is considered a promising application field for thermoelectrics (TE). Some recent …

This paper presents the development and characterization of a thermoelectric generator
(TEG) system for waste heat recovery to low temperature in industrial processes. The …

A thermoelectric generator is a unique heat engine in which charge carriers serve as the
working fluid. It has no moving parts, is silent in operation and very reliable. However, its …

Solar-driven technologies for electricity production are very promising technologies for
developing sustainable and viable energy units. The objective of this work is the energy and …

In this paper the 'performance'of a commercially available thermoelectric module (Peltier
cooler) is investigated when operated in the Seebeck mode as a generator, to convert low …

A thermoelectric generator prototype has been built; it produces 21.56 W of net power, the
produced thermoelectric power minus the consumption of the auxiliary equipment, using an …

Thermoelectric (TE) energy harvesting is a promising perspective to use waste heat. Due to
