Abstract (en)

[origin: EP2899408A1] A method for pumping a liquid (121) with a pumping device (110) which comprises an inlet (215), an outlet (216) and chamber (214), wherein by means of the pumping device (110) liquid (121) to be pumped is introduced portion wise into the chamber (214) via the inlet (215) for liquid to be pumped and is discharged from the chamber (214) via the outlet (216). Herewith the method comprises the following steps: - introducing a gas into the chamber (214) that contains the liquid (121) to be pumped, - discharging the liquid (121) from the chamber (214) by the gas that is in contact with the liquid (121) to be pumped via the outlet (216), and - allowing the liquid (121) to be pumped to flow into the chamber (214) under the influence of gravity and allowing the gas introduced into the chamber (214) to flow out of the chamber (214), via two routes.
