Summary:
A general overview of the potential use of waste heat sources for the generation of energy will be described in this paper. Attention will be specially placed on low and medium levels of heat sources, in particular in appliances that are used almost daily. In order to demonstrate the effectiveness of the use of such waste heat sources, two applications are described: the generation of electricity from the heat of an overhead projector and the use of heat sources to charge batteries of domestic equipment such as telephones, radios and secutiry systems.
