UK Firm Achieves Tonne-Scale MOF Manufacturing

Promethean Particles, a UK-based specialist manufacturer, has developed a tonne-scale metal-organic framework (MOF) synthesis using its proprietary flow reactor technology.

This technology enables the production of carbon-capturing material at a rate of 100kg/hr, increasing reliability and consistency.

Industrial production of MOFs remains relatively scarce, mainly due to a lack of scalable manufacturing routes and, in turn, prohibitively high costs.

According to Owen Cartmell, operations manager at Promethean, the company has completed an initial shipment of 4 tonnes of the material, marking a significant milestone in MOF production.
