Abstract (en)
[origin: DE10113725A1] The invention relates to a dimensionally unstable storage container, especially for storing gases and/or gas mixtures, which substantially consists of a gas-permeable material, such as for example a coated rubber or a textile-reinforced polyester. The invention also relates to a method of storing one or more gases or gas mixtures in such a storage container. The dimensionally unstable storage container of the invention is enclosed by at least one further storage container that likewise substantially consists of a gas-permeable material, and/or at least one further storage container that consists of a non-gas-permeable material. According to the inventive method the outer storage compartment(s) is/are filled with an oxygen-free gas or gas mixture, preferably an inert gas or gas mixture.
[origin: DE10113725A1] The gas storage container (2), with a flexible shape, is of a gas-permeable material e.g. coated rubber or textile-reinforced polyester shrouded by an outer container (4) of a gas-permeable material and/or of a gas-impermeable material. The outer container storage zone (3) is filled with a gas or gas mixture which is free of oxygen, or an inert gas. The inner container has a monitor (5,6) to register a gas concentration. The gas storage container (2), with a flexible shape, is of a gas-permeable material e.g. coated rubber or textile-reinforced polyester shrouded by an outer container (4) of a gas-permeable material and/or of a gas-impermeable material. The gas storage container has a system (7,8) to feed gas or a gas mixture into and out of the storage zones (1,3) within the container. The outer container storage zone (3) is filled with a gas or gas mixture which is free of oxygen, or an inert gas. The inner container has a monitor (5,6) to register a gas concentration, and preferably the level of oxygen present. The pressure and/or volume changes in one of the containers is controlled by adjusting the pressure and/or volume in the other container.
