NOVELTY - The method comprises primarily removing gas from a sorption accumulator (5) up to reaching a predetermined working pressure at a constant removal temperature, secondarily removing gas from the sorption accumulator up to reaching a minimum removal pressure after reaching the predetermined working pressure at the same removal temperature, and compressing the gases obtained in the secondary removal step at the predetermined working pressure. The predetermined working pressure is a pressure between the minimum removal pressure and maximum filling pressure of the sorption accumulator.    USE - Method for removing gases from a sorption accumulator, which is useful as a gas accumulator for a fuel cell, in a gas storage device (all claimed) and in stationary applications, for heating buildings, in mobile applications, motor vehicles or gas-powered vehicles.    ADVANTAGE - The method is capable of effectively and safely removing the gases from the sorption accumulator without requiring additional energy effort.    DETAILED DESCRIPTION - The method comprises primarily removing gas from a sorption accumulator (5) up to reaching a predetermined working pressure at a constant removal temperature, secondarily removing gas from the sorption accumulator up to reaching a minimum removal pressure after reaching the predetermined working pressure at the same removal temperature, and compressing the gases obtained in the secondary removal step at the predetermined working pressure. The predetermined working pressure is a pressure between the minimum removal pressure and maximum filling pressure of the sorption accumulator. The minimum removal pressure is a pressure, which prevails in the sorption accumulator when no gas is obtained at the removal temperature. The gas stored in the sorption accumulator is hydrogen or gaseous hydrocarbon. The sorption accumulator is tempered at the removal temperature. An INDEPENDENT CLAIM is included for a device for storing gases.    DESCRIPTION OF DRAWING(S) - The diagram shows a schematic representation of a device for storing gases.    Gas storage device (1)    Tank (3)    Sorption accumulator (5)    Valve (13)    Bypass. (17)
