A method of coating the interior of a gas storage container, the method comprising the steps of providing a precursor for chemical vapor deposition to the storage container, and forming a metal coating on the interior surface of the container. A method wherein the coating is formed from a precursor for chemical vapor deposition. A gas storage container including a gas storage container having an inner surface, the gas storage container having a liner formed on the inner surface of the storage container. The liner may comprise about 99% by weight or more pure tungsten metal. Furthermore, a system for making a metal-lined gas storage container that may include a chemical vapor deposition precursor generator and a precursor injection assembly for transporting the precursor into the gas storage container. The system may also include an exhaust outlet for removing gaseous deposition products from the gas storage vessel. |
