In a method for compressing a gas that is to be separated in a low-temperature CO2 separation unit using at least one partial condensation step and/or at least one distillation step, the gas that is to be separated has a variable composition and/or variable flow rate, the gas that is to be separated is compressed in a compressor to produce a compressed gas and the inlet pressure of the gas that is to be separated, entering the compressor, is modified according to the CO2 content and/or the flow rate of the gas that is to be separated so as to reduce the variations in volumetric flow rate of the gas that is to be separated entering the compressor.
A method for compressing a feed gas comprising CO2, in which the feed gas has a variable composition and/or variable flow rate, the method comprising the steps of:
An apparatus for compressing a feed gas comprising CO2, in which the feed gas has a variable composition and/or variable flow rate, the apparatus comprising a main compressor configured to compress the feed gas to produce a compressed gas;
