I've always felt chemical engineering was very intangible outside of industry, and then there's you making heat pumps and chemical reactors in your garage. Please never stop.

Don't know why you don't have 1 million subs. informative, meme-tastic, and just the right amount of science. Keep up the great work!

Thank you for your content. This process is so valuable to have published on youtube, I will have you to thank for future DIY inspirations. You like a few others set an example of how great a platform for educational content that youtube can be.

The key with LNG production is to do it at high pressure. When it lets down to atmospheric pressure use the supercooled vapour that flashes off to precool your feed to the main exchanger. Also, you've reinvented the Conoco Phillips cascade cycle. I suggest you use all your vapour waste to precool your inlet gas streams.

That's awesome 😎, I want to do liquid air at some point too..

Can't wait for you to get into diy hydrogen storage! Also do you know of the channel S³ ? They released a video of a company which creates methane from the Hydrogen and CO2 that's in the air. You should take a look I think it's right up your alley. All the best!

Seeing it spelled out "joule-thomson" just made me realize I'm an idiot. I thought it was "dual Thomson" this whole time.

Down to around 20-30 watts of heat lift at -147C (the critical point of nitrogen), so it looks like I'll be making some LN2 in the near future with the mixed-gas joule-thomson system. As a slightly easier test, i managed to liquify a little bit of methane from my natural gas line (highlighted in red), which is at -162C at 1 atmosphere of pressure. A lot of it boils off, so some extra heat exchangers are gonna need to be used to capture the cooling energy of the boiloff gas. For the video-after-next I'm planning to make some more liquid and then freeze it under vacuum (-182C).
