Abstract: A pressure control device for controlling a pressure in a beverage container comprises a gas filled pressure control chamber enclosed by a wall of the pressure control device. The wall has an inner surface facing the chamber and an outer surface facing away from the chamber, the inner surface and outer surface defining a thickness of the wall. A scavenger material is provided in the pressure control device for capturing gas that enters, during use, into the pressure control chamber. The scavenger material is distributed over the wall thickness with a predetermined concentration from the inner surface towards the outer surface of the wall such that a rate of gas capture by the scavenger material changes over time.

Abstract: A pressure regulating system for a beverage container includes a first compartment for containing a pressurized gas. The first compartment is in fluid communication with a surrounding space through a gas valve for opening and closing a passage between the first compartment and surrounding space. A gas valve control system includes a deformable and/or movable wall or wall part, which is in contact with the gas valve for opening and/or closing the gas valve. A second compartment is provided at a side of the deformable and/or movable wall part. The movable and/or deformable wall part forms a wall of said second compartment and the second compartment forms a pressure regulating space and includes a wall part formed by or including at least a gas permeable, liquid tight permeable wall part.
