Power plants waste huge amounts of energy as heat—about 40 to 80 percent of the total in the fuel they burn. A new device could reduce that waste, cutting fuel consumption and carbon emissions by as ...

Fuel- and emission-free generators convert low-grade waste heat from diesel generators into power. In 2014, three organic Rankine cycle (ORC) generators were installed to turn the waste heat from ...

Use of waste heat contributes largely to sustainable energy supply. Scientists of Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) and T?hoku University in Japan have now come much closer to their goal of ...

(Nanowerk News) Use of waste heat contributes largely to sustainable energy supply. Scientists of Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) and Tohoku University in Japan have now come much closer to ...

HAYWARD, Calif. — Alphabet Energy has introduced a new thermoelectric generator that captures exhaust heat and converts it into electricity. Called the E1, it attaches to an exhaust stack and uses ...

Dallas’ Southern Methodist University is now recycling energy with one of the first commercial electricity generators that use thermoelectricity—the act of drawing power from waste heat. The machine ...

Laird Technologies' eTEG Series thin film energy harvesting products are thermoelectric power generators that harvest waste heat and convert it into usable output dc power. Laird Technologies' eTEG ...

Waste heat from the UK’s growing stock of data centres could be harnessed to heat at least 3.5 million homes by 2035, ...

Converting waste heat into energy is an eco-friendly technology arguably better suited to dense downtown areas in the Pacific Northwest than wind and solar-powered systems. Waste heat recovery, ...

Waste heat generated by electronics is a big problem. Not only can it damage components if it gets out of hand, but it represents a large amount of energy going to waste. Now scientists at the ...

Use of waste heat contributes largely to sustainable energy supply. Scientists have now come much closer to their goal of converting waste heat into electrical power at small temperature differences.
