Promethean Particles is delighted to announce the appointments of Georgia Rowe and Chigozie Obu, growing its research and development team and strengthening its manufacturing capability. Georgia joins the team as a synthetic chemist and will help to develop scalable processes for producing MOFs, while Chigozie has been appointed as a process operator. His role is to ensure the production processes in the manufacturing facility are running smoothly and safely. Their appointments are the latest in a number of new hires at the firm and follow the appointment of Greg Searle as commercial director earlier this year. Georgia, who comes from nearby Derby, has joined Promethean Particles directly after completing a PhD – studying MOFs – at the...
Attitudes to climate change are driving more action to implement decarbonisation solutions.
Promethean, through its use of continuous flow hydrothermal synthesis and patented reactor systems, is delivering the materials and technology to meet these demands via MOF-based carbon capture.

Unprecedented demand
Demand is accelerating for viable, energy-efficient carbon capture solutions. Promethean has already demonstrated its capability to produce MOFs at scale and is now actively developing and demonstrating their use in carbon capture applications. We’re focused on developing cost-effective solutions for hard-to-abate emissions from the power and industrial sectors, but have also seen significant interest in MOFs for direct-air capture applications.
Energy-efficient sorbent nanomaterials
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are a class of materials with incredibly high surface areas, some of which have the ability to preferentially adsorb materials like carbon dioxide. By flowing air or post-combustion gas streams over beds of selected MOFs, carbon dioxide can be selectively removed and later recovered in a controlled manner. Our continuous flow process and patented reactor designs are breaking some of the scale and cost paradigms that have historically held back the use of these incredible materials.
Cost-effective, scalable technology
As a world leader in continuous flow hydrothermal synthesis of nanomaterials, Promethean is enabling MOFs to be a viable carbon capture sorbent at an industrial scale, putting us at the forefront of the manufacture of MOFs for carbon capture. We’re uniquely positioned to provide industrial-scale, cost-effective MOFs for carbon capture applications.
Promethean Particles has invested £110,000 into new analytical equipment which it says will help accelerate the development of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). The company is pioneering the large-scale manufacture of MOFs, and developing the advanced materials for use...
Promethean Particles, a world-leader in the manufacture of industrial scale, cost-effective metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), is pleased to announce the appointment of Paul Capell as its new Board chair. Paul, an accomplished CEO, non-executive director, and strategic...
Promethean Particles has responded to increasing interest and demand for its ground-breaking metal-organic framework (MOF) products by creating new office space and taking on three new members of staff. The company has converted a mezzanine storage area at its site in...
Promethean announces new collaboration with the University of Nottingham and Drax Power Ltd , on novel approach to carbon capture using metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) as the solid sorbent material.
Novel approaches to carbon capture are a necessity to tackle the accelerating negative impacts of man-made climate change. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are a promising, cost-effective candidate to help solve this problem.
