Abstract: A method including preparing a molecular sieve material in a first chamber; transferring the molecular sieve material from the first chamber to a second chamber comprising at least one support; in the second chamber, contacting the at least one support with the molecular sieve material under conditions that promote the crystallization of molecular sieve material on the at least one support; and synthesizing crystals of molecular sieve material on the at least one support. A system including a first chamber defining a volume sufficient to accommodate a volume of molecular sieve material, an inlet and an outlet; a heating element coupled to the first chamber; and a second chamber comprising a pair of inlets and defining a volume sufficient to accommodate a support.

Abstract: A method including contacting a support with a composition including an aluminum, silicon, phosphorous (SAPO) gel and/or an aluminophosphate (AlPO) gel; heating the support and the composition; and forming SAPO and/or AlPO crystals from the composition on the support; and after forming the crystals, modifying the contact between the support and the composition within a time to inhibit solubilization of a portion of the crystals. A method including seeding a support with an amount of uncalcined silicoaluminophosphate (SAPO) and/or aluminophosphate (AlPO) molecular sieve crystals; after seeding the support, contacting the support with a composition including a SAPO or AlPO gel; and heating the support and the composition to form SAPO and/or AlPO molecular sieve crystals from the gel on the support.

Abstract: Method of producing a total product are described. A method includes providing a feed and a supported inorganic salt catalyst to a contacting zone. Contact of the supported inorganic salt catalyst with the feed in the presence of a hydrogen source and steam in the contacting zone at a temperature of at most 1000° C. and a total operating pressure of at most 4 MPa produces the total product.
