Thermoelectric material is the best at converting heat waste to electricity
Scientists
have developed a thermoelectric material that is the best in the world
at converting waste heat to electricity. This is very good news once you
realize nearly two-thirds of energy input is lost as waste heat. The
material could signify a paradigm shift. With a very environmentally
stable material that is expected to convert 15 to 20 percent of waste
heat to useful electricity, thermoelectrics now could see more
widespread adoption by industry.
