AdBlue\u00ae is injected into the exhaust gasses of a diesel-powered engine to reduce the emissions of nitrogen oxides (NOx) in combination with SCR (Selective Catalyst Reduction) technology. In the heat of the exhaust gasses, the AdBlue converts to Ammonia and in the catalyzer neutralizes the harmful NOx and converts them to nitrogen and H2O (steam).<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"What is AdBlue and what does AdBlue do?

It is not the water you drink every day. This water is de-mineralised or de-ironised to make it \u201cpure water\u201d. So making AdBlue is not simply adding urea into the water. It is a bit more complicated\u2026 \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p>Same for urea. The urea used is manufactured specifically for the production of AdBlue. Few suppliers can produce the high-quality urea needed to ensure AdBlue complies to the stringent ISO 22241-1 specification.<\/p>\n<div class=\"slate-resizable-image-embed slate-image-embed__resize-middle\" data-imgsrc=\"https:\/\/media.licdn.com\/mpr\/mpr\/AAEAAQAAAAAAAAhhAAAAJDk0MTJmZThkLWExMTYtNGRhOC04NDI4LTM5ZWMwNDY4NGQ4Zg.png\"><\/div>\n<p>That was the technical part!! In practice, AdBlue\u00ae is a solution that helps to clean up the NOx particles that your Diesel\u2019s Car, Van, Truck or Bus releases into the air.<\/p>\n<p>Since January 2016, AdBlue\u00ae is mandatory for most diesel engines from generators to the biggest non-road vehicles.<\/p>\n<p>We have been talking about AdBlue\u00ae and legislation since the beginning of this article and you certainly think \u201cBut where on earth can I find my AdBlue\u00ae tank on my vehicle?\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>AdBlue tank is not always where you expect it to be!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3272\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3272\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img alt=\"\" fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-3272 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/greenchemstaging.maarevenonline.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/thumbnail_large-300x195.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"195\" srcset=\"https:\/\/greenchemstaging.maarevenonline.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/thumbnail_large-300x195.png 300w, https:\/\/greenchemstaging.maarevenonline.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/thumbnail_large-258x168.png 258w, https:\/\/greenchemstaging.maarevenonline.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/thumbnail_large-200x130.png 200w, https:\/\/greenchemstaging.maarevenonline.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/thumbnail_large.png 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-3272\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">AdBlue tank<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Well, it depends first of all if your vehicle is diesel or not, remember? You need a diesel car to have the \u201cNOx killer\u201d. On trucks, most of our #truckers friends have been using AdBlue\u00ae since 2006, 10 years now, so they pretty much know where to find it. But what about cars?<\/p>\n<p>Before we take a look at the cars, did you know that today, a truck pollutes less than a 10 years old diesel car?? The law requires the trucks to release 0.4g\/kWh. This was a great achievement for our planet knowing how many trucks are on our roads today bringing you Amazon&#8217;s product home!<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>In today&#8217;s EURO 6 legislation, a diesel car must emit less than 0.08g\/km of NOx<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Now let\u2019s talk about cars. A car from 2000 (Just 16 years old) releases more than 0.56g\/km of NOx. Today, the EU law requires that cars emit 0.08g\/km of NOx. This is an impressive improvement in such a short period, isn\u2019t it?<\/p>\n<p>Did you know that it was first requested from car manufacturers to demonstrate in laboratories that they could develop engines capable to meet these emission levels and it is only from September 2017 that &#8220;on the road&#8221; tests will be carried out to verify that it is really the case?<\/p>\n<p>In practice, AdBlue\u00ae needs to be injected at a specific dosage, based on the engine speed and load. Today, the cars are made to be as light as possible in order to reduce the CO2 emission. The car manufacturers, therefore, need to reduce the size of some components, the Adblue\u00ae tank being one of them. This is why it is fairly small and you need to fill it a few times a year.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>On the exact same car, diesel emits less CO2 than a petrol car!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Just so you can compare, if you drive a lot on long distances, a 2016 diesel car emits less CO2 (100 g\/km for the new Peugeot 3008) than the Petrol version (Around 117g\/km for the new Peugeot 3008)\u2026 This is a fact and you definitely need to take it into consideration when looking for a car. Also, check what is the overall pollution generated when producing an electric car as compared to a petrol or diesel one. You need some really special materials to make the battery and they do pollute a lot more than you think!<\/p>\n<div class=\"slate-resizable-image-embed slate-image-embed__resize-right\" data-imgsrc=\"https:\/\/media.licdn.com\/mpr\/mpr\/AAEAAQAAAAAAAAeYAAAAJDQxNmJkYjIwLThlNWItNGU1OC1hODc2LThlYWRiZjkxYmNhZQ.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/media.licdn.com\/mpr\/mpr\/AAEAAQAAAAAAAAeYAAAAJDQxNmJkYjIwLThlNWItNGU1OC1hODc2LThlYWRiZjkxYmNhZQ.png\" \/><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Anyway\u2026 Let\u2019s come back to our subject: \u201cwhere can I find my AdBlue\u00ae trap?\u201d \u00a0Long story short, today, the vehicle manufacturers tend to standardize the position of the AdBlue\u00ae tank and you can usually see a blue cap next to your diesel trap. However, you can also find it under your trunk\u2019s carpet, on the other side of the diesel trap, and in some other places too. So check your vehicle manual to be sure you will fill in the right tank!<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>You now have 2 400 km left before the car stops, so better to fill in your AdBlue\u00ae<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-212 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/greenchemstaging.maarevenonline.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/Adblue_cars_empty-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Car driving with AdBlue, GreenChem\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" srcset=\"https:\/\/greenchemstaging.maarevenonline.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/Adblue_cars_empty-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/greenchemstaging.maarevenonline.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/Adblue_cars_empty-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/greenchemstaging.maarevenonline.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/Adblue_cars_empty-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/greenchemstaging.maarevenonline.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/Adblue_cars_empty-258x172.jpg 258w, https:\/\/greenchemstaging.maarevenonline.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/Adblue_cars_empty-516x344.jpg 516w, https:\/\/greenchemstaging.maarevenonline.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/Adblue_cars_empty-640x427.jpg 640w, https:\/\/greenchemstaging.maarevenonline.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/Adblue_cars_empty-900x600.jpg 900w, https:\/\/greenchemstaging.maarevenonline.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/Adblue_cars_empty-1032x689.jpg 1032w, https:\/\/greenchemstaging.maarevenonline.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/Adblue_cars_empty-200x133.jpg 200w, https:\/\/greenchemstaging.maarevenonline.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/Adblue_cars_empty-400x267.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Now, you know where your AdBlue\u00ae tank is!
