10.8D According to researchers, advances in nanomaterial
fabrication are leading to development of tiny thermoelectric
modules that could be used in various applications, including
integrating nanoscale cooling devices within the uniforms of
firefighters, emergency workers, and military personnel;
embedding thermoelectric modules in facades of a building;
and using thermoelectric modules to recover waste heat in
automobiles. Research two applications for this technology
proposed within the past five years. Investigate thetechnical
readiness and economic feasibility for each concept. Report yourfindings in an executive summary.
