Gas storage modules, apparatus, systems and methods utilizing adsorbent materials

摘要

A gas storage module includes a two-dimensional body and a heat exchanging structure. The body includes a packed adsorbent having a composition and porosity effective for adsorbing a gas such as methane. The body may be self-supporting or encapsulated in a porous support structure. The body includes gas flow channels. Several modules may be stacked together and provided in a storage tank.
