A system for the storage and on-demand dispensing of a fluid that is sorbable on a physical sorbent and that subsequent to sorption is desorbable from the sorbent by pressure-mediated desorption and/or thermally-mediated desorption. The system includes a storage and dispensing vessel containing the physical sorbent; a surge tank for holding fluid that is desorbed from the physical sorbent and flowed to the surge tank for subsequent discharge; a first flow passage joining the surge tank in flow communication with the storage and dispensing vessel; a pump operatively coupled with the first flow passage means, and selectively operable to effect desorption of fluid in the storage and dispensing vessel, and transfer of desorbed fluid through the first flow passage to the surge tank for holding therein; an actuating assembly for monitoring pressure of fluid held in the surge tank and responsively thereto actuating or deactuating the pump, to maintain a predetermined pressure range of fluid in the surge tank; a second flow passage for discharging fluid from the surge tank; and flow control means operatively coupled with the second flow passage, to selectively control flow of fluid from the surge tank through the second flow passage.
