1. A pressure driven dispensing appliance comprising: a device for receiving a container containing a liquid to be dispensed;a device for dispensing the liquid from the container, when mounted in the appliance;a chamber containing a solid adsorbent suitable for adsorbing air;a device for fluidly connecting the chamber with an interior of the container when mounted in the appliance;wherein, the appliance further comprises a connecting device for connecting in fluid communication an air compressor with the interior of the chamber. 2. A method for dispensing a liquid from a container comprising the following steps: providing a liquid dispensing appliance, the liquid dispensing appliance comprising:(a) a pressure driven dispensing appliance comprising: a device for receiving the container containing the liquid to be dispensed;a device for dispensing the liquid from the container when mounted in the appliance;a chamber containing a solid adsorbent suitable for adsorbing air; anda device for fluidly connecting the chamber with an interior of the container, when mounted in the appliance; and(b) an air compressor connectable to the chamber;connecting the air compressor to the chamber containing solid adsorbent and injecting compressed air therein, until a desired amount of air is stored in the chamber, after which the air compressor is disconnected;mounting the container into a device for receiving the container of the dispensing appliance;fluidly connecting the device for dispensing the liquid contained in the container;fluidly connecting the chamber with the interior of the container to increase the air pressure in the container to a desired level; anddispensing liquid from the container through the dispensing device driven by the air pressure obtained in the previous step. 3. The method according to claim 2, wherein compressed air is injected into the air chamber when the latter is in fluid communication with the interior of the container. 4. The method according to claim 2, wherein the pressure dispensing appliance further comprises: the chamber being detachable from the appliance;the solid adsorbent having a high affinity for nitrogen and/or oxygen;the container being mounted in the device for receiving the container of the dispensing appliance, the container being suitable for being connected to the device for dispensing and to the device for fluidly connecting to the chamber; andthe container being a bag-in-container or a bladder-in-container. 5. The method according to claim 4, wherein the pressure dispensing appliance further comprises: the device for dispensing the liquid from the container and device for fluidly connecting the chamber with the interior of the container comprising corresponding tubes, one connecting end of each tube being connectable to corresponding openings provided on a closure of the container mounted in the dispensing appliance to bring them in fluid communication with the interior of the container;the connecting ends of each of the dispensing tube and a gas tube being mounted in a lid of the dispensing appliance, the closing of which, upon the closure of the container mounted therein, drives them through the corresponding openings of the closure bringing the interior of the container in fluid communication with ambient and the chamber, respectively;a valve being provided between the two ends of the dispensing tube;a valve being provided between the two ends of the gas tube; andwhen sufficient gas is adsorbed on the adsorbent contained in the chamber, the dispensing appliance is suitable for dispensing a beverage contained in the container mounted therein without the supply of any electrical energy and, in particular, requiring no battery or connection to an electrical net. 6. A kit of parts for dispensing a liquid contained in a container, comprising: (a) a pressure driven dispensing appliance comprising: a device for receiving the container containing the liquid to be dispensed;a device for dispensing the liquid from the container, when mounted in the appliance;a chamber containing a solid adsorbent suitable for adsorbing air; anda device for fluidly connecting the chamber with an interior of the container, when mounted in the appliance; and(b) an air compressor connectable to the chamber. 7. The kit of parts according to claim 6, wherein, when sufficient gas is adsorbed on the adsorbent contained in the chamber, the dispensing appliance is suitable for dispensing a beverage contained in the container mounted therein without the supply of any electrical energy and, in particular, requiring no battery or connection to an electrical net. 8. The kit of parts according to claim 6, wherein the device for dispensing the liquid out of said container and the device for fluidly connecting said chamber with the interior of the container comprise corresponding tubes, one connecting end of each tube being connectable to corresponding openings provided on the closure of a container mounted in the dispensing appliance to bring them in fluid communication with the interior of said container. 9. The kit of parts according to claim 6, wherein the solid adsorbent has a high affinity for nitrogen and/or oxygen. 10. The kit of parts according to claim 9, wherein the solid adsorbent is selected from the group consisting of activated silica, activated carbon, and zeolites with a high affinity for nitrogen and/or oxygen LiX, LiLSX and other Li-containing zeolites, and mixtures thereof. 11. The kit of parts according to claim 6, wherein a container is mounted in the receiving means of the dispensing appliance, said container being suitable for being connected to the dispensing means and to the connection means to the chamber. 12. The kit of parts according to claim 11, wherein the container is a bag-in-container or a bladder-in-container. 13. The kit of parts according to claim 6, wherein the chamber is detachable from the appliance. 14. The kit of parts according to claim 13, wherein the solid adsorbent has a high affinity for nitrogen and/or oxygen. 15. The kit of parts according to claim 14, wherein the container is mounted in the device for receiving the container of the dispensing appliance, the container being suitable for being connected to the device for dispensing and to the device for fluidly connecting to the chamber. 16. The kit of parts according to claim 15, wherein the container is a bag-in-container or a bladder-in-container. 17. The kit of parts according to claim 16, wherein the container contains a beer. 18. The kit of parts according to claim 16, wherein the container contains a beverage. 19. The kit of parts according to claim 18, wherein the device for dispensing the liquid from said container and device for fluidly connecting the chamber with the interior of the container comprise corresponding tubes, one connecting end of each tube being connectable to corresponding openings provided on a closure of the container mounted in the dispensing appliance to bring them in fluid communication with the interior of the container. 20.
