Abstract

L'invention concerne un appareil (10 ; 110 ; 210) pour comprimer un gaz (G), qui comprend un premier agencement de récipient (12 ; 112 ; 212) comprenant un ou plusieurs premiers récipients (16A ; 116A ; 216A), et un agencement de communication fluidique (18 ; 118 ; 218) configuré pour fournir une communication fluidique entre une source d'un fluide de compression C et le premier agencement de récipient (12 ; 112 ; 212). Le premier agencement de récipient (12 ; 112 ; 212) est conçu pour recevoir le gaz (G) à mettre sous pression. L'appareil (10 ; 110 ; 210) est configuré et/ou utilisable pour diriger le fluide de compression (C) vers le premier agencement de récipient (12 ; 112 ; 212), le fluide de compression (C) étant incompressible ou sensiblement incompressible de façon à former un piston de fluide agissant sur le gaz (G) contenu dans le premier agencement de récipient (14 ; 114 ; 214), comprimant ainsi le gaz à proximité de l'isothermique (G). L'invention concerne également un appareil de transfert sans perte de gaz sous pression (G).
