Thermoelectric Energy Harvesting From Non-Biodegradable Dry Waste

Thermoelectric energy harvesting presents a promising approach for converting waste heat into usable electrical energy. This study investigates the feasibility and potential of producing energy from dry waste materials through thermoelectric generators (TEGs). Dry waste, such as industrial exhaust, electronic devices, and household appliances, continuously emits heat during operation and disposal. By utilizing TEGs, this waste heat can be efficiently transformed into electricity, reducing energy wastage and contributing to sustainable energy solutions. This research explores the design, materials, and operating parameters of TEG systems for dry waste energy harvesting and assesses their performance in real-world scenarios. The results demonstrate the significant energy recovery potential of thermoelectric systems from dry waste, with implications for waste management, energy conservation, and environmental sustainability.
