Liquid Thermocells Enable Low-Grade Heat Harvesting

Matter, 2020
Recently, two Science papers tackled the challenge of harvesting low-grade heat via liquid thermocells. One combines TGC and TDC to significantly enhance thermopower by an order of magnitude, and the other reveals the selectively thermosensitive crystallization/dissolution at two electrodes. These intriguing and inspiring advances in terms of materials,

Enhanced Heat Transfer for Thermomagnetic Generation in Low‐grade Waste Heat Harvesting

Advanced Materials
Abstract Thermomagnetic generation (TMG) is a potential technology for harvesting low‐grade waste heat. However, the limited heat transfer of TMG materials constrains their practical performance. In this study, low‐melting point metal indium (In) with high thermal conductivity is introduced into a Ni─Mn─In Heusler

Development and testing of a steam compression heat pump for low-grade waste heat recovery.

Industrial high-temperature compression heat pumps are considered a technology suitable for decarbonizing industrial processes through electrification. This technology utilizes synthetic or natural working media to operate. Depending on the type of working medium, each of these has a specific disadvantage: (1) the environmental impact of the synthetic ...
