Tenneco and Gentherm (formerly BSST/Amerigon) are part of a US Department of Energy (DOE) consortium actively developing a thermoelectric generator (TEG) for capturing waste exhaust heat in vehicles and converting it to electrical energy to be used to power electrical systems within the vehicle.

Cool Planet has devised a biomass-to-liquids thermochemical conversion process that simultaneously produces liquid fuels and sequesterable biochar useful as a soil amendment. One of the catalytic conversion processes creates the high-octane gasoline blendstock. Earlier post.). Earlier post.).

At that level of efficiency, TE materials become useful in practical applications such as waste heat recovery in vehicles, Kaviany noted. But we did not know what features we could manipulate to maximize the conversion of heat into electricity. Example of the structure of a partially filled CoSb skutterudite. Click to enlarge.

Researchers at Michigan State University have developed a microbial electrolysis cell (MEC) which will allow biodiesel plants to eliminate the creation of hazardous wastes while reducing their dependence on fossil fuel. Geobacter removes any waste produced during glycerol fermentation to generate electricity. Click to enlarge.

for the materials and possibly good enough for consideration for waste heat recovery in automotive exhaust systems. And a team from Northwestern University and the University of Michigan reported experimentally achieving a ZT of 1.7 at 700 °C (973 K), in half-Heusler alloys—about 60% higher than the best reported ZT of 0.5
