Compositions and methods for preparing mesoporous and/or mesostructured materials from low SAR zeolites are provided herewith. In particular, methods are provided that involve: (a) providing a low SAR zeolite, (b) optionally subjecting the low SAR zeolite to an acid framework modification, and (c) subjecting the framework-modified zeolite to a mesopore formation treatment. The resulting mesoporous zeolites can have bi-modal mesoporosity and higher aluminum contents relative to existing mesoporous zeolites.

A method for the large-scale synthesis of a zeolite-templated carbon (ZTC). The method includes the steps of: introducing a bed material comprising a zeolite to a fluidized bed reactor and heating the bed material to a temperature between 550 C. and 800 C.; fluidizing the bed material with a fluidizing gas and maintaining the temperature of the bed material between 550 C. and 800 C.; introducing an organic carbon precursor while fluidizing the zeolite for a period of time such that carbon is deposited on the zeolite by chemical vapor deposition to produce a zeolite-carbon composite; and treating the zeolite-carbon composite with an acid solution such that the zeolite template is dissolved and the ZTC is obtained.
