MUMBAI, India, May 1 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202611025765 A) filed by Swami Vivekanand Subharti University, Meerut, Uttar Pradesh, on March 5, for 'a system and method for recovering and converting industrial waste heat into electrical energy using a thermoelectric generator (teg).'
Inventor(s) include Amit Kumar; Er. Subham Tyagi; Sandeep Kumar; and Reshu Kumar.
The application for the patent was published on May 1, under issue no. 18/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present disclosure relates to a thermoelectric generator (TEG) system and method for recovering and converting industrial waste heat into electrical energy. The system comprises a conformal high-thermal-conductivity interface layer configured to be thermally coupled to an industrial heat source, a thermal gradient amplification chamber having micro-channel flow structures for intensifying thermal flux, and a plurality of high-ZT thermoelectric modules arranged in a segmented matrix architecture. A multi-zone phase change material (PCM) thermal stabilization layer is thermally coupled to the thermoelectric modules to provide cascaded thermal buffering and maintain temperature gradient stability under fluctuating heat conditions. A cold-side thermal management subsystem sustains the required temperature differential, while a reconfigurable electrical switching network dynamically adjusts module interconnections to optimize voltage and current output. A power management unit regulates and converts generated direct current electrical energy into conditioned output suitable for industrial loads or grid integration."
