Design, fabrication, and usage of a reactor are presented for synthesis of structured materials from a liquid-phase precursor by heating. The structured materials are particles, membranes or films of micro-porous molecular sieve crystals such as zeolite and meso-porous materials. The precursor solution and structured materials in the reactor are uniformly heated by a planar heater with characteristic heat transfer dimension in the range of 3 mm to 10 cm. A planar heater having width and length at least three times of the characteristic heat transfer dimension provides at least one surface of uniform temperature distribution for heating purposes. Heating is conducted over a temperature range of 20 to 300° C. The planar heater can be heated by electrical power of by thermal fluid.

Systems and methods for molten media pyrolysis for the conversion of methane into hydrogen and carbon-containing particles are disclosed. The systems and methods include the introduction of seed particles into the molten media to facilitate the growth of larger, more manageable carbon-containing particles. Additionally or alternatively, the systems and methods can include increasing the residence time of carbon-containing particles within the molten media to facilitate the growth of larger carbon-containing particles. 1. A process for molten media pyrolysis , comprising:introducing methane gas into a reaction vessel comprising molten media, the reaction vessel having a bottom surface, wherein the molten media is present in a first layer, and wherein a first side of the first layer contacts the bottom surface;converting at least a portion of the methane gas into hydrogen and carbon-containing particles by exposing the methane gas to the molten media;removing at least a portion of the molten media from the first layer;introducing the at least a portion of the molten media into a region within the reaction vessel that is opposite from the bottom surface, wherein the at least a portion of the molten media transfers to the first layer, thereby creating a molten media current directed toward the bottom surface of the reaction vessel; andisolating carbon-containing particles having an average characteristic dimension of about 0.2 mm or more from the molten media.2. The process according to claim 1 , wherein the removing the at least a portion of the molten media from the first layer comprises introducing the least a portion of the molten media into a circulation conduit in fluid communication with the first layer of molten media.3. The process according to claim 1 , wherein the molten media comprises a molten metal claim 1 , molten salt claim 1 , or a combination thereof.4. The process according to claim 1 , wherein the molten media comprises the molten metal claim 1 , the ...
