๐ข This week Scott Priest and Leah Matsinha from our R&D team will be presenting posters at YoungMOFmeeting hosted by the University of Cambridge. ๐จโ๐ฌ ๐ฉโ๐ฌ If you're also at the meeting, make sure you check out their posters! #innovation #manufacturing #carboncapture #climatechange


๐ Well done to Scott and Leah who presented their posters at the YoungMOFmeeting last week. They discussed our work on cost effectively scaling-up the production and shaping of high quality MOFs, and demonstrating their use in carbon capture. #MOFs #innovation #manufacturing


๐ Happy Halloween! ๐ Our growing team recently took part in some spooky fun by showing off their pumpkin carving skills! Please admire the #Halloween handiwork on display at Promethean Particles, which added a seasonal touch to our site at this time of year!


โ Today kicks off Royal Society of Chemistry's #ChemistryWeek. To celebrate, we asked the chemists in our team about their careers & passion for chemistry. We'll share their answers every day this week, starting with Andy Jones who recently joined the Promethean Particles team as a synthetic chemist.


โ Itโs Day 2 of the Royal Society of Chemistry's #ChemistryWeek, and we're celebrating by showcasing the talented chemists in our team. Today itโs the turn of our senior synthetic chemist, Leah Matsinha, who highlights what chemistry and her work in the field means to her.


โ It's Day 3 of Royal Society of Chemistry's #ChemistryWeek and we're continuing to showcase the chemists in our team! We asked our process chemist, Scott Priest, about when his interest in chemistry started and how he decided that a career in chemistry was for him.


โ It's Day 4 of Royal Society of Chemistry's #ChemistryWeek, and weโre celebrating by asking our chemists for their thoughts on the impact of chemistry. Today, our process chemist Rebecca Ryder-Brown describes a book by Bonnie Garmus as her favourite reference to chemistry in popular culture.


โ All week we've been celebrating the Royal Society of Chemistry's #ChemistryWeek by sharing the perspectives & stories of our chemists. We conclude with our laboratory technician, Kale Cooke, who explains why the work of hip-hop star The Alchemist is like doing chemistry with music!! ๐ถ ๐


๐ข Our CEO & BDM are attending Chemindix2024 in Dhahran, KSA, this week. Promethean Particles will be showcased as a portfolio company in the AramcoVentures area. James & Chris will be there 26th - 27th Nov, so make sure you connect with them if you're also there! #PortfolioHighlight


๐ซOur CEO, James, and BDM, Chris, had a fantastic Day 1 at Chemindix2024 in Dhahran, KSA, and they're ready for Day 2! ๐ Our thanks to our investors AramcoVentures for hosting the Promethean Particles pod as part of their exhibition area to showcase their portfolio companies.


We're delighted to welcome David Van Gelder Adjar to our growing team! David recently joined Promethean Particles as a process development engineer, having previously worked as a technology project and process engineer in the lubricants industry. #manufacturing #MOFs #Nottingham


We're excited to welcome another new starter! Andy Jones recently joined the Promethean Particles team as a synthetic chemist after completing his PhD at the Uni of Nottingham #WeAreUoN. Before that, he obtained his MSc degree from the University of York. Great to have you on board, Andy! #MOFs

We love developing new talent so we're thrilled to announce that our new starter, James Dale, is taking a year out of his degree in Chemical and Environmental Engineering at the Uni of Nottingham #WeAreUoN, to spend his industrial placement with us as a process engineer. Welcome, James!๐จ๐ฝโ๐



Promethean Particles has been mentioned in an article from Nature Materials! Our work in scaling up #MOF production is recognised as key to fast tracking their commercialisation, for use in tackling global issues. Full article below ๐ go.nature.com/4gsqHaT


We're excited to announce that Greg Searle has joined the Promethean Particles team as our commercial director! Greg brings a wealth of knowledge of net zero and carbon capture technologies, and has a strong record of success in both commercial and technical environments. Welcome, Greg!


This week our product manager Selina Ambrose is at the 5th annual The Carbon Recycling Network conference in Cheshire, UK. As an invited speaker, she'll be discussing our work to develop #MOFs for #carboncapture, and how collaboration with utilisation technologies will drive a #NetZero future.
