TELLURIUM WILL LOWER AUTO COST | Operation Will Be Less Expensive, It Is Hoped Think of an automobile running twice as far on a gallan of fuel as your present car, and giving half as| much engine troutle as the machine of today! This wonder, research, soon will be plished fact, Tellurium, herefofore considered a useless by-product in the electrolytic refining of copper and lead, is now put to use in increasing the efficiency of gasoline. 8o much so, that a compound of this metal has been obtained which, its Inventors say, will give 100 per cent greater mileage in high compres- slon motors, Thomas Midgley and Thomas A. Boyd, Dayton, O., chemists, have ac- complished this result in an automo- bile equipped with a high compres- sion motor and gear ratio altered to suit. They also found that the tellurium compound, added to the gasoline, pre- thanks te scientific an accoms- vented the knock which is so familiar |, to motorists when the engine is labor- ing up a grade with the throttle open. Production of tellurium by the cop- || per and lead refineries, however, is insufficient for the demand, it is found. Therefore search has been begun, through the American Chemi- cal society, for further production of the metal. Sulphurless Gasoline. Promise of less engine trouble is| given by the producers of a com- pound called silica gel, used in the physical refining of oil. According to J. R. Wilson, secretary of the Balti- | more corporation controlling the silica gel refining process | “We have definiteiy proven in our laboratory that the elimination of practically all the sulphur content in gasoline and lubricating oil prevents the forming of gummy compounds on valve seats and the carbon deposit in the cylinders, which causes so much annoyance to motorists. “In refining operations with silica gel, not only is the sulphur content removed to many times the extent that the present treatment removes it but the unsaturated hydro-carbons are not eliminated except the small proportion that may be in combina- tion with some of the sulphur com-|!
