Abstract - Current scenario concerns include increasing world power consumptions and raising greenhouse heat emission posing serious considerations. Thermoelectric energy conversion incorporates direct energy conversion from heat sources to electric energy conservation. It incorporates direct energy conversion from heat sources to electric energy conservation and the underlying physical into rapid effect has been well recovered in this past century. The thermoelectric effect is that the use of temperature differences to electric voltage creation and vice versa. A considerable amount of primary fuels could be stored if some of the waste heat generated from Ovens, Kilns, Boilers, Furnaces, IC engines etc. are recovered through waste heat generating system. In a diesel engine, substantial energy (10 to 30%) is lost through the engine exhaust gas as waste heat. It means a large fraction of the fuel energy remains untapped and gain of energy from waste heat is appreciable. This waste heat can be used for generating the thermoelectric power by using thermoelectric materials. Recently, the "nanoparticle-in- nanocomposite" is formulated to enhance thermoelectric characteristics which augment the interface scattering of photons for reducing the lattice as well as bipolar thermal conductivities. The high-energy ball-milling is an effective methodology to produce thermoelectric nanocomposites in large scale. The desirable characteristics of the thermoelectric materials are high Seebeck coefficient, high conductivity and low thermal conductivity.
