    摘要: An apparatus for waste heat recovery is provided. The apparatus includes a base block disposed adjacent to a heat source, a thermoelectric generator including a first end and a second end, the first end being thermally coupled to the base block and configured to receive heat from the heat source, and a thermoelectric cooler including a third end and a fourth end, the third end being thermally coupled to the second end. The thermoelectric cooler is configured to receive an electric current, which causes the third end to cool and the fourth end to heat such that the third end conducts heat from the second end. Related apparatus, systems, techniques, and articles are also described.

    摘要: A system exchanges pressure and heat from a source stream to a sink stream. The system includes a source exchanger and a sink exchanger. The source exchanger includes a first pressure exchanger and a first heat exchanger. The first pressure exchanger converts pressure of the source stream to electrical energy. The first heat exchanger converts temperature from the source stream via a first temperature differential to electrical energy. The sink exchanger includes a second pressure exchanger and a second heat exchanger. The second pressure exchanger uses electrical energy received from the source exchanger to change a pressure of the sink stream. The second heat exchanger uses electrical energy received from the source exchanger to change a temperature of the sink stream. Related apparatus, systems, techniques, and articles are also described.

    摘要: A purification system can provide for efficient heating of liquid via film heating, which, rather than heating a large volume of liquid, can heat a thin layer of liquid thus reducing the amount of energy required to evaporate the liquid. Film heating can enable evaporation of liquids using less energy than other methods. In addition, when liquids (e.g., seawater) having dissolved solids (e.g., salts) are heated, both the liquid and the solids must be heated. As evaporation occurs, the concentration of solids increases and more energy must be supplied to the liquid in order to cause evaporation. Because purification system can heat only a layer of liquid, less energy is required to heat the solids, which can allow for higher energy efficiencies in purifying liquids. These efficiencies can lead to decreased cost of potable water. Related apparatus, systems, techniques, and articles are also described.
