They include waste heat, which is usually inducted in industries, car exhaust systems, and power plant systems which are usually released into the atmosphere. However, the innovation in TEG technology from waste heat in industries is now possible to convert into electric power, where the thermoelectric generator market is experiencing vast growth. Waste heat recovery is a route to address the energy wastage challenge whereby industries can be able to save energy bills, power a better efficiency, and minimal greenhouse gas emissions. This article describes how increased interest in the application of waste heat as a resource stimulates the emergence of the Thermoelectric Generator industry with examples.

Need for Waste Heat Recovery.

Most industries including manufacturing, oil and gas, transportation, and power industries release large quantities of waste heat. Indeed, energy utilization industrial processes have indicated that about 50% of the energy used goes to waste in the form of heat energy. In the past, it was believed that this heat had no real application and was simply a waste that caused energy losses and increased energy consumption. However, increased pollution and regulation of emissions to some specific levels have raised concern for industries to look for ways of either utilizing or capturing this wasted heat.

The shift is made possible by thermoelectric generators. These devices make use of the Seebeck effect where electricity is generated when two materials are connected and at different temperatures. They can, in this way, utilize energy that was previously wasted and thereby bring the associated processes into their industries increasing the energy efficiency of their systems. TEGs have therefore cropped up as being very useful in applications such as waste heat recovery.

Industrial Uses and Examples

The main areas that may benefit from implementing the technology of thermoelectric generators for waste heat recovery include industries that use high energy and or high temperatures.

1. Automotive Industry

The use of waste heat thermoelectric generators is brightly illustrated by the automotive industry where such systems are implemented. It is a well-known fact for instance the mechanical energy in vehicles particularly sparking the internal combustion engines tends to be dissipated more through exhaust techniques as heat. Car makers are increasingly including TEGs in vehicles to harness this heat and turn it into electricity to power other auxiliary functions like air conditioning, lighting, and entertainment systems; all of which are parasitic loads on the engine.

One good example is BMW’s Thermoelectric Generator Project in which the company seeks to incorporate TEGs into vehicle exhaust systems. Through the production of electricity from waste heat from the exhaust, BMW has been able to cut its fuel bills by up to 5%. It increases the energy distribution efficiency particularly to hybrid and electric vehicles, as a way of improving their environmental sustainability. The ever-increasing popularity of new technologies such as electric vehicles and hybrid vehicles is another factor, which should promote the utilization of TEGs for waste heat recovery.

2. Industrial Buildings and Factories

Some of the industries that generated high wasted heat include manufacturing industries, especially steel, cement, and chemical processing plants. In industrial plants conditions are hot and a large part of the utilized energy simply transforms into heat.

Siemens has always led the way in incorporating TEGs into industrial waste heat recovery power plants. In their steel plants, Siemens has installed recuperators of waste heat from hot output gases in steel-making processes. These gases which otherwise would have been emanated into the environment can now be used to produce power to support the operation of the company thus reducing energy usage and Green House Gas emissions into the environment. This not only saves costs but also contributes positively to the set worldwide sustainability objectives.

Furthermore, General Electric (GE), the manufacturing power and multinational conglomerate company has applied thermoelectric generators in its power plants, which exploit the waste heat and convert it into more useful electricity. The company’s technology is most suitable for CHP plants since these facilities generate electricity and heat from the same fuel.

3. Aerospace and Defense

The aerospace and defense products have also used thermoelectric generators for waste heat recovery, especially in space and the defense districts. For example, TEGs are used in space vehicles and technology such as NASA to produce electric energy from heat generated by radioactive substances. This has proved crucial in deep space missions where solar power is a problem, in that they can make power despite this.

Curiosity Rover on Mars after three hundred sols is run through Radioisotope Thermoelectric Generator (RTG) that converts the heat from decaying radioactive isotopes into electricity. This allows the rover to stay active, day and night, or when the Mars sandstorms obscure the Sun for extended periods. These findings suggest that TEGs have efficacy in space missions and confirm general trends concerning waste heat recovery in various fields of industries.
