Disclosed are an isentropic booster and a method thereof. The booster comprises a main body pump having a chamber provided with a fixed division plate, a left piston, a right piston and a connecting rod separating the chamber into a plurality of independent booster chambers. The connecting rod passes through the division plate and connects at its two opposite ends with the left piston and the right piston. The volume of the booster chambers is changed with the movement of the left piston and the right piston. A part of the plurality of the booster chambers connect between high-pressure gas source and a medium-pressure gas pipeline network, and the rest of the plurality of the booster chambers connect between low-pressure gas source and the medium-pressure gas pipeline network. The isentropic booster of present invention improves efficiency of using high-pressure gas.

An apparatus employing pressure transients for transporting fluids from a first reservoir to a second reservoir, includes at least one partly enclosed space and a body. The body is movable relative to the interior of the space. The apparatus also includes at least one first conduit and at least one second conduit in fluid communication with the opening via a third conduit, and connected to the first and second reservoir, respectively. An opening in the enclosed space allows a fluid to flow alternately in the direction into and out of the space and which opening is connected to a third conduit. At least one solid object is arranged to fall onto and collide with the body so as to generate pressure transients in the space to produce a flow of fluid in the direction from the space towards the second reservoir, and to produce a flow of fluid in the direction from the first reservoir towards the space.

An apparatus employing pressure transients for transporting fluids from one reservoir to another, includes an at least partly enclosed space, and a body herein, where the body is movable relatively to the interior of the space. The apparatus further includes an opening in the enclosed space to allow a fluid to flow alternately in the direction into and out, and conduits in fluid communication with the opening and connected to the reservoirs. Further, an object is arranged to collide with the body so as to generate pressure transients in the partly enclosed space in order to produce a flow of fluid in the direction from the partly enclosed space towards the second reservoir, and to produce a flow of fluid in the direction from the first reservoir towards the partly enclosed space.

An air-driven pump system comprising: a directional unit that defines a directional air chamber and comprises a directional piston, a first process air intake, and a second process air intake; two pump units each including a liquid chamber, an air chamber, and a piston; a shaft affixed to the pistons; an efficiency valve system comprising an efficiency piston, wherein the efficiency unit is configured to divide inlet air entering the air-driven piston pump into control air, first process air, and second process air, and wherein the efficiency piston is in communication with the control air, first process air, and second process air before the air is distributed to the directional unit; and a second shaft which is in communication with the efficiency piston. The efficiency valve system is to prevent overfilling of the air chambers.
