Abstract

Low-grade waste heat harvesting and conversion into electric energy is an important way of renewable energy development and thermo-electrochemical cells are promising devices to solve this problem. In this paper, we report original data on the current density and maximum output power dependents on voltage of the thermos-cells with nickel hollow microspheres electrodes and different electrolyte concentration (from 0.1 to 3.0 mol/l)which exhibit excellent hypothetical Seebeck coefficient and accordingly high open-circuit voltage values at low source temperature. The composition, microstructure and morphology of the hollow nickel microspheres based electrodes are included here. Because of the low cost of nickel based thermo-cells could be commercially feasible for harvesting low-quality thermal energy, in this connection, the raw data of measurements of their properties are given here.The data is related to “High Seebeck coefficient thermo-electrochemical cell using nickel hollow microspheres electrodes”, Burmistrov et al., Renewable Energy, 2020 [1].
