  • Boosting system, and boosting method of gas
    Patent number: 10570927
    Abstract: A boosting system which boosts a target gas to a pressure which is equal to or greater than a target pressure higher than a critical pressure includes a compression portion which compresses the target gas to an intermediate pressure which is equal to or greater than the critical pressure and is less than the target pressure to generate an intermediate supercritical fluid, a cooling portion which cools the intermediate supercritical fluid generated by the compression portion to a temperature near to a critical temperature to generate an intermediate supercritical pressure liquid, a pump portion which boosts the intermediate supercritical pressure liquid generated by the cooling portion to a pressure which is equal to or greater than the target pressure, and a cooling temperature adjusting portion which adjusts a temperature of the intermediate supercritical pressure liquid generated by the cooling portion in an upstream side of a pump.
