description Due to global warming and environmental issues in recent times, the world's concern is oriented nowadays toward discovering new renewable energy sources and energy management methods. Particularly, researchers are emphasizing on heat recovery technologies and applications in both residential and industrial sectors. While there are plenty of review papers in the literature on the subject matter, there is always a necessity to update the literature with the new advancements in the field. In this context, the purpose of this paper is to present a recent and complete systematic comprehensive review along with critical analysis and potential recommendations related to waste heat recovery (WHR) methodologies and applications. In methodologies, heat exchangers, Rankine cycle and thermoelectric generators are studied. Moreover, applications of WHR are discussed in automotive, and in both residential and industrial zones. Studies show that the optimization of heat recovery systems lead to significant magnitudes of energy savings. On the other hand, hybrid heat recovery systems prove to be the most trending research subject nowadays. For future work, the negative effect of backpressure should be taken into consideration when recovering energy from exhaust gases of engines and power generators, and more importance should be given to hybrid systems.
