ABSTRACT

This chapter presents an overview of the research of our group in natural gas and hydrogen storage, in which the behavior of diff erent carbon materials in methane and hydrogen storage has been studied. An in-depth analysis has been done in order to obtain the carbon material with the best methane and hydrogen adsorption capacity by unit volume of adsorbent. The important eff ect of the micropore volume, micropore size distribution (MPSD), and packing density of the carbon materials in methane and hydrogen adsorption capacity and delivery has been analyzed.
