]. ". S Kaufman. a practical en-
gineer of this city, is placing on the
market a de-carbonizer OUTFIT, the
purpose Of which is to remove car
bon in gasoline explosive engines
Mr.. Kaufman was employed for a
number of years in the Washington
Navy Yard and later chief engineer
of the Hydraulic Company. During
the period OF the war he was engaged
in special work for the Washing ton
Steel and Ordnance Company and
also co-operated with the Bureau Of
Standards in making engineering
tests on Liberty motors.
The device of which he is the in
ventor is known as the Kaufman De-
water system to be attached. to the
intake manifold or carburetor of au-
tomobiles. Its operation is similar
to an atomizer in that the suction,
while motor is running, feeds water
in mist form into the combustion
chamber. thereby coming into con-
tact with the carbon deposits.
Its action on the valves, tops OF
pistonsN and explosion chamber in
general loosens the carbon and trans
forms into steam; this steam brought
into contact with glowing carbon
forms water gas, which is composed
of hydrogen and carbon. The steam
is decomposed by the carbon and is
broken up into it's constituent ele-
ments-hydrogen and oxygen. The
free oxygen then combines with the
carbon. AS soon as the carbon heats
to -redness it is consumed by the free
oxygen liberated from the steam.
The Kaufman De-CarboniZer is
claimed by its manufacturers to
solve the problem Of pre-ignition
carbon knocks), faulty valves and
short-clrcuited spark plugs, eliminat-
ing the one great enemy OF smooth
operation and long life OF gasoline
motors.
