What is AdBlue® and how does it work?

What is AdBlue® by BASF ?

AdBlue® is a high-purity urea solution used as a diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) in vehicles equipped with Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) technology. It is composed of 32.5% urea and 67.5% deionized water. The primary purpose of AdBlue® is to reduce the nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions produced by diesel engines, which are harmful pollutants contributing to air pollution and smog.

How does AdBlue® by BASF work?

AdBlue® is a high purity, 32.5% urea solution directly injected into the exhaust gas where it serves as reducing agent. The released ammonia subsequently reacts with the nitric oxides on the catalyst to form elementary nitrogen and water; both are natural constituents of the air we breathe. Hence, the amount of nitric oxides in the emission can be reduced.

Reduced fuel consumption and constant engine output

The combination of SCR Catalysts with AdBlue® by BASF needs higher temperatures in the motor to elevate the exhaust gas temperature for the effective AdBlue NOx reduction. This leads to higher fuel efficiency and less unburned fuels and less sooty particles in the exhaust gases without affecting engine output.

Perfect for your Diesel Engine

AdBlue® by BASF can be deployed in all diesel engines that feature SCR technology – including those in buses, trucks, ships, cars, stationary and mobile power plants, and mining, construction and agricultural vehicles.

Protects SCR systems

As the purity of AdBlue® is closely controlled, it does not damage SCR systems.

Reduces exhaust emissions

Exhaust emissions have been shown to be reduced by between 85 – 95 %

Delivered in Liquid Form

As AdBlue® is supplied in liquid form, it is easy to store and deploy.

Reduces Fuel Consumption

AdBlue® cuts fuel consumption by 5 % – without reducing engine output.

Environmentally Friendly

AdBlue® is fully biodegradable and does not pollute water and soil.

Safety

AdBlue® is a safe, non-hazardous aqueous solution that can be easily washed off if it contacts the skin.
