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 advisor, brings with him vast experience of launching and scaling up businesses across a range of industries, including oil and gas, water, renewables, and construction. His appointment follows the succesful completion of Promethean Particles’ £8 million Series A financing round last year, which saw it attract investment led by Mercia Ventures and Aramco Ventures. The investment is now being used to help fund Promethean Particles’ pioneering work into the large-scale...
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 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 Particles has appointed three new members of staff after embarking on a major project designed to scale up the production of its metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), for use in the fight against climate change. Project REMBRANDT (Rapidly AccElerating MOF-Based...
In a recent article, Marina Fuentes, investment manager at Mercia Ventures, describes her passion for climate tech and what drew her, and ultimately Mercia Ventures, to co-lead the Series A investment into Promethean Particles alongside Aramco Ventures. Why we...
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.
