Thermoelectric effects enable efficient and direct conversion from thermal and electrical energy, which has the advantages of long service life, no noise and environment-friendly and etc. It has been applied in the fields of aerospace, aviation, civil industries and other areas for waste heat recovery. This article introduces the research progresses of the thermoelectric conversion technology in different application areas. Based on the latest development in domestic and abroad study, the conversion efficiency and reliability of the combined system were analyzed. The solutions for existing problems were proposed. Besides, it was pointed out that with the development of high-performance thermoelectric materials, solder and advanced welding technology, the reliability of thermoelectric conversion system would be improved, and the application would be more widely distributed.
