Basics
- A device for compressing combustible gasses {Hydrogen, Syngas, Natural gas/Methane) from low or near atmospheric pressure, to high pressur for storage
- This does not do much cleaning of the gas,outside of a small failsafe
- It need clean inputs such as from a Biogas Upgrader
- Uses a Diaphram Pump or an Ionic Liquid Piston Based Gas Compressor
Industry Standards
- BÜHLER Models (Diaphram or peristalic? it says "bellows") ]

- A Site Selling High Pressure "Gas Boosters" (supposedly used to compress low pressure (yet still slightly higher than ambient) gas to high pressure for either scientific use, or for bottle filling. Does it work with combustables, and/or hydrogen? (Hydrogen tends to leak due to it's size allowing it to diffuse even through metals)
