Apparatus, compositions, and methods for making solid methane gas

An apparatus for producing solid methane comprising:

• a drum containing gaseous methane,
• a cooling case having a pipe with a first end and a second end, and a coolant cavity having
• a coolant,
• a gas storage container enclosed by a gas storage cryogenic jacket, and
• a chamber enclosed by a chamber cryogenic jacket, the chamber having a base configured to allow a solid methane bed complex to be placed inside the chamber,
• a mixer located within the chamber,
• a vacuum,
• the drum connected to the first end of the pipe within the cooling case,
• the pipe within cooling case connected to the gas storage container and the chamber from the second end of the pipe, and
• the coolant cavity connected to the gas storage cryogenic jacket and the chamber cryogenic jacket,
• wherein the vacuum is configured to remove air from the chamber after the solid methane bed complex is placed within the chamber,
• wherein coolant flows from the coolant cavity to the gas storage cryogenic jacket and the chamber cryogenic jacket to maintain a cold temperature in the cooling case, gas storage container, and chamber,
• wherein the gaseous methane is configured to flow from the drum through the pipe into the gas storage container resulting in the formation of liquid methane,
• wherein the liquid methane is configured to flow into the chamber
• wherein the mixer is configured to mix the liquid methane with the solid methane bed complex within the chamber to create solid methane.
