eJoule Inc., a California-based company, will present at the Silicon Dragon CES 2026 9th Annual Look at Top Tech Trends from Silicon Valley to Asia, which highlights technology developments across electric vehicles, autonomous systems, and supply chain innovation. CES 2026 takes place January 6th to 9th in Las Vegas.
At the event, eJoule will discuss recent work to improve and simplify the synthesis and production of lithium-ion cathode active material (CAM), one of the most costly inputs in lithium-ion battery manufacturing and a key factor in determining maximum achievable energy capacity.
The company’s CAM is designed to meet performance specifications required by supply chains serving electric vehicles (EVs), autonomous aerial systems, and related applications. eJoule’s current scale-up efforts focus on CAM production for these markets, and the company is raising a Series D round to expand manufacturing capacity.
eJoule’s production approach is based on its patented and trade-secret-protected Dynamic Crystallization Process (DCP), which uses a closed-loop, modular, and scalable synthesis method. The process converts liquid droplets of engineered chemical solutions directly into cathode powder in a single thermal step. Each droplet contains the full metal salt and dopant profile, enabling uniform incorporation and reducing variability associated with co-precipitation and multi-stage calcination methods.
The company’s manufacturing plans include CAM production plants scalable from approximately 1 to 40 GWh, corresponding to capacities of up to 50,000 metric tons. Facilities are designed using a modular architecture, with plant layouts structured for incremental expansion. The process reduces water consumption, does not generate wastewater, and avoids sulfate waste streams commonly associated with conventional precursor-based methods.
Under comparable production capacity, the company reports that its plant designs require less land area and lower capital investment than traditional CAM production approaches.
