Decarbonisation Demystified:
Gist of Carbon formation:
The formation of Carbon in the fossil based Internal Combustion Engine is inevitable: the challenge being Carbon Management. The Carbon deposit in the internal chamber of Engine Cylinder, Piston top and Outer Diameter, in essential quantities are however desirable, depending on the Engine design.
There are multiple reasons, causes: (some known and a few unknown) for Carbon formation, deposit inside the Engine and its peripheral equipment’s. The primary source of Carbon, is the fuel itself. The fossil based fuels are primarily composed of simple to complex Hydro-carbon chains and during the combustion process, the hydro-carbons undergo thermo-chemical reaction, producing Energy and by-products, primarily: Carbon Mono-Oxide, Carbon Di-oxide, etc., resulting in carbon residue and deposit.
It is generally observed that Carbon starts accumulation on or after 25000 km and once this starts, there are cascading effects and multiple causes that goes on endlessly until further care is exercised. Then, comes the air intake system and this adds up further to the fuel system. Blockage, Leakage, choking of air intake leads to faulty fuel air ratio that misleads the entire engine control unit or engine management system, resulting in incomplete combustion and hence more Carbon build up in the Engine and peripherals like EGR (Exhaust Gas Re-circulation), DPF (Diesel Particulate Filter) / GPF (Gas Particulate Filter), Air Intake and Exhaust Manifold, Turbo fins (Air and Exhaust side), Turbo Waste Gate Valve, etc.
There-after comes the Engine Oil that starts accumulating Carbon repeatedly and periodically either through the Engine Oil that is circulating internally or through Turbo Charger Core externally. Adding more Carbon to the system sometimes is contributed by the faulty Coolant System if not corrected in due time, shall damage the life and performance of the Engine.

In Line Decarbonisation:
One of methods of Carbon Management is through feeding HHO Gas (Also referred to as Brown Gas) through the Intake Manifold when the Engine is operating, under controlled conditions. This results in removal of Carbon in the insides of the Engine as described above and to some extent the Engine Peripherals.
A Decarbonisation Machine by HHO process was developed by Henrich Fuel Tech for internal use and by regularly testing and verifying the results on different fuels, we have developed the complete process and control parameters for Carbon removal, management without dismantling the Engine. When an Engine is subjected to proper assessment and maintained with cyclic usage of In-Line Decarbonisation, the life, quality, drivability etc., of the vehicle shows a marked improvement.
To benefit the world at large, Henrich Automotive Solutions now supplies In-Line Decarbonisation Machine, built specific to the usage and requirement of the end-user, with front-end and back-end support, training, to properly use the equipment and provide long term service and maintenance of the machines.

Off-Line Decarbonisation:
Case 1:
A vehicle is perfectly maintained by carrying out necessary decarbonisation at periodic levels. Even though Carbon may have been being removed from the Engine and its peripherals, one item that captures all the carbon ejected from the Engine is the Silencer or more specifically a Particulate Filter or Catalytic Convertor.
We have developed a process to cleanse the chocked system with proper treatment required and restoring to near original condition. This is done by physically removing the item from the vehicle and carry out checks, manual cleaning, testing and later on tuning the Engine.
Case 2:
A vehicle is completely non performing according to standards, emits smoke and In line decarbonisation has not been able to restore the normal operating of the Engine. The Engine peripherals from Intake Air System upto and including the Silencer, EGR, DPF/GPF, Cat. Con., Inter-cooler, turbo etc., except the Engine are removed and subjected to different treatment process and are restored to near original condition.
