The invention relates to a pressurised gas container with a minimum volume of 1 m3 and a maximum filling pressure for filling with, storage and dispensing of a fuel which is gaseous under the storage conditions, the combustion of which can be used to propel a vehicle, characterised in that the pressurised gas container has a filter through which the fuel can flow at least on filling and dispensing, the filter being suitable for removal of possible contaminants in the fuel from the flow, said contaminants being able to reduce the storage capacity with regard to the fuel gas of an adsorbent used for storage of the fuel gas. The invention further relates to the use for such a pressurised gas container for filling a further pressurised gas container, the further pressurised gas container being arranged in or on a vehicle and containing an adsorbent for storage of the fuel gas. La invención se refiere a un recipiente de gas presurizado con un volumen mínimo de 1 m3 y una presión máxima de llenado para llenar, almacenar y surtir un combustible que se encuentra en estado gaseoso en las condiciones de almacenamiento, cuya combustión puede ser utilizada para impulsar un vehículo, que se caracteriza porque el recipiente de gas presurizado tiene un filtro a través del cual el combustible puede fluir por lo menos en la etapa de llenado y surtido, el filtro es adecuado para remover posibles contaminantes en el combustible provenientes del flujo, dichos contaminantes pueden reducir la capacidad de almacenamiento con relación al gas combustible de un adsorbente utilizado para almacenamiento del gas combustible. La invención se refiere además al uso de un recipiente de gas presurizado de este tipo para llenar un recipiente de gas presurizado adicional, el recipiente de gas presurizado adicional se coloca dentro o bien sobre un vehículo y contiene un adsorbente para el almacenamiento del gas combustible.
