Abstract
Solid-phase physical sorbent medium holding adsorbed fluid is provided in a cartridge, for use in a sorbent-based fluid storage and dispensing system. One or more of such cartridges may be disposed in a fluid storage and dispensing vessel and opened prior or subsequent to sealing of the vessel, to provide desorbable fluid for dispensing from the vessel, e.g., by pressure differential, concentration differential and/or thermal desorption. Use of such cartridges thereby obviates the sorbent bake-out and sorbate gas loading steps necessary in prior practice, thereby simplifying the manufacture of the fluid storage and dispensing system.
