Abstract: A method and device for compressing a gas-phase medium, particularly hydrogen or natural gas, wherein the medium may have a water content up to total saturation with water and wherein the medium is compressed in a single or multiple stages in at least one liquid-filled chamber. The liquid(s) that is/are used are an ionic liquid that is not susceptible to attack by the water contained in the medium to be compressed and/or a liquid with low vapor pressure that is not susceptible to attack by the water contained in the medium to be compressed, and the compressed medium undergoes a water separation stage.

Abstract: A method and a device for compressing a gas-phase medium, particularly hydrogen or natural gas, in a single-stage or multistage process using at least one piston compressor, wherein the medium may have a water content up to total saturation with water. The medium to be compressed is heated before the compression at least to such point that the water is unable to condense out during the compression process, and the compressed medium undergoes a water separation process.

Abstract: Described is a method for filling a storage container with a gaseous, pressurized medium, preferably with gaseous, pressurized hydrogen. According to the invention, a determination of the internal storage container pressure takes place at the onset of the filling process by means of a pressure test impact and a filling process with time-controlled pressure increase up to the desired internal storage container pressure takes place subsequently as a function of the established internal storage container pressure.

Abstract: The invention relates to a compressor (1) for gaseous and/or cryogenically liquefied media comprising a first compressor piston (6) and a second compressor piston (7), which are operatively connected to an eccentric shaft (2), wherein the second compressor piston (7) is arranged substantially opposite to the first compressor piston (6) relative to the eccentric shaft (2). To solve the object of providing such a compressor with a small space requirement and low construction costs, it is proposed according to the invention for the compressor (1) to be embodied as an oscillating piston-type compressor, wherein the first compressor piston (6) is arranged on an eccentric ring (4), which is effectively connected to the eccentric shaft (2) and wherein the second compressor piston (7) is fastened to a pivot lug (8), which is effectively connected to the eccentric ring (4).

Abstract: A storage device for storing a compressed medium, for example hydrogen. The storage device encompasses a plurality of storage containers and a container, in which the storage containers are arranged. Furthermore a method for fueling a vehicle with gaseous hydrogen by means of a variable pilgrim step method, where the gaseous hydrogen is removed from a storage device, which is divided into at least two, preferably into four or more than four sections and is fed to the vehicle, which is to be fueled.

Abstract: The invention relates to a compressor for cryogenic media comprising at least one compressor cylinder in which a compressor piston is arranged, wherein the compressor piston interacts with a crankshaft by means of a connecting rod. To solve the object of attaining a secure operation and of attaining a long service life of the compressor by means of low production efforts, it is proposed according to the invention that the compressor piston is embodied as an oscillating piston.
