Abstract: The present invention relates to a thermoelectric power generation from waste materials utilizing thermoelectric Seebeck effect technology to convert waste heat generated from incineration into electrical energy. The system comprises a waste collection and sorting unit for preparing waste materials, a high-temperature incineration chamber for efficient combustion, and thermoelectric generators thermally coupled to the incineration chamber to directly convert heat into electricity without mechanical moving parts. A power conditioning unit regulates the electrical output, which is stored in an energy storage unit or supplied to external loads. The system further includes emission-control mechanisms such as electrostatic precipitators and particulate filters to minimize environmental impact. Residual ash produced during combustion is collected for material recovery or safe disposal. By utilizing waste heat that would otherwise be lost, the system enhances overall energy efficiency while reducing waste volume and greenhouse gas emissions. The invention provides a scalable, sustainable solution for renewable energy generation and efficient waste management.
