Readily available thermoelectric generators operating under modest temperature differences can power CO 2 conversion, ...

The idea is simple in theory: create a flexible thermoelectric generator that can wrap around hot pipes or other surfaces to gather otherwise lost heat. The full (paywalled) paper is also available.

Researchers at the University of British Columbia (UBC) propose using thermoelectric generators to harness energy from temperature differences. Interestingly, this tech could perform well even in ...
