Well I for one would be interested in what, where and how you consider DPMG to be an advantage over Maxwells technique. I know nothing about Maxwells except the name and that Tesla bought it. So it seems to be the major competitor in the market. I am also a bit confused as to when the DPMG is used in anode making. Clearly petcoke needs heating to 3,000 degrees to form graphite then presumably the DPMG forms it into spherical particles of the right size and then it is "filtered" so the too small and large particles are removed and re used but then the video suggests it is re scintered to form crystals, surely he was confusing cathode production with anode production. That was my take anyway. Probably need to watch it again. Feral

Maxwell's technology had been out there before the Tesla acquisition. Novonix is more recent, although it sounds like a more advanced cement mixer from this vid. Maxwell is also a long established battery manufacturer engaged in the commercial market. Novonix is basically a university testing lab that has been bought on spec by an entrepreneur from the energy and mining industries. But the guy has pedigree.
