Combustion engines, the engines in gas-powered cars, only use a quarter of the fuel’s potential energy while the rest is lost as heat through exhaust. Now, a study published in ACS Applied Materials & ...

The global automotive thermoelectric generator (ATEG) market is entering a decisive growth phase as vehicle manufacturers ...

About three-quarters of the energy produced by a typical combustion engine is lost through heat and released through a car’s exhaust system. But what if some of that heat could be captured and turned ...

Absorption heat transformers (AHTs) are advanced thermal systems designed to upgrade low-grade waste heat to higher, more useful temperature levels. By exploiting the thermodynamic properties of ...

In neighborhoods around the world, a potent resource slips away unnoticed. This buried treasure is waste heat — a powerhouse for low-carbon energy that often remains untapped. Buildings, factories and ...

How does it work? Have a look, including a quick tour of a Canadian project where the technology drives down emissions and preserves more usable energy. There are many industrial processes that ...

Forty percent of the energy in the fuel used in cars and trucks escapes through the tailpipe as waste heat. Thermoelectric generators convert this heat to electricity, reducing alternator loads and ...

A research team led by Prof. Guo Bin from the Hefei Institutes of Physical Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has designed and optimized an organic Rankine cycle (ORC) system specifically for ...
