A densification and storage system for fluids is provided by multitudes of closely spaced parallel planes of adsorptive material ( 88 ) that is contained within a substantially impervious barrier layer ( 2 ). In normal pressure-containing embodiments, reinforcement ( 4 ) is wrapped upon the impervious barrier layer ( 2 ) to increase the burst strength of the assembly that results. In higher pressure containing embodiments, material ( 88 ) provides reinforcement of barrier layer ( 2 ). |
