The effects of compacting a highly microporous carbon, a graphite, and blends of the two carbons on CH_4 storage capacity, adsorption rate, and compaction properti4s were studied. Compaction was found to increase the uptake capacities and adsorption kinetics. High capacities, 97-119 ml CH_4 per ml carbon, were obtained with compacted, blended carbons when the methane adsorption rate was 9.3 e-5 g CH_4 per sec or better. The concentration of a more expensive microporous carbon component could be reduced by as much as 50percent by volume in compacted blended samples while maintaining storage capacities. This effect has economic implications for practical gas storage. Additionally, the compaction properties of the blended carbons were significantly better than the compaction properties of the highly microporous carbon alone.
