It's not. A device that rapidly cools things down placed inside it isn't implausible. He's not asking for a beam of absence, he's asking for an enclosed space that subtracts heat.

Shooting something with “cold energy beams” is an anti-microwave

We aren’t talking about machines to make things cold, I was asked if we could make microwaves that make stuff cold

I do believe that's a freezer.

Yes or one of those weird ice cream things that has an extremely cold surface, or one of those things where you roll it in ice water or a million machines. "Machine that makes things cold" isn't sci fi.
