Zusammenfassung:	An electrochemical compressor Includes one or more electrochemical cells through which a working fluid flows, and an externa! electrical energy source electrically connected to the electrochemical cell. Each electrochemical cell includes an anode connected to the electrical energy source; a cathode connected to the electrical energy source; an ion exchange.membrane disposed between and in electrical contact with the cathode and the anode to pass an eiectrochemicaliy motive material of the working fluid from the anode to the cathode, the ion exchange membrane comprising polar ionic groups attached to nonpolar chains; and a non-aqueous solvent comprising polar molecules, the polar molecules of the non-aqueous solvent being associated, with and electrostatically attracted to the polar ionic groups of the ion exchange membrane.
