  • Patent number: 6751958
    Abstract: A method and apparatus is disclosed to increase the pressure of a feed gas through chemical compression. A feed gas such as natural gas is introduced into a vessel and is adsorbed onto material contained therein. The vessel is heated, for example by the waste heat from a turbogenerator. The feed gas desorbs and is released from the vessel at an increased pressure. Multiple vessels may operate in cooperation to collectively provide a substantially continuous flow of feed gas at an increased pressure. An accumulator also may be provided to collect, cool and store the feed gas at the increased pressure.
