Diesel Exhaust Fluid can save gasoline in addition to meeting industry-related emission criteria. According to industry study, a fleet of heavy-duty trucks equipped with EPA-compliant engines and Diesel Exhaust Fluid might save over 5% on fuel when compared to vehicles equipped with similar, non-compliant diesel engines manufactured before to 2007.
In contrast to petrol engines, where the standard three-way catalyst decreases CO, HC, and NOx, diesel NOx emissions can be reduced using an SCR catalyst, which entails a controlled dosing of AdBlue (32.5% high quality urea and 67.5% de-ionised water) into the SCR catalyst. AdBlue decomposes into Ammonia (NH3) and CO2 after being dosed into the catalyst. NOx is converted into water and nitrogen by the SCR catalyst and ammonia, which are both safe. AdBlue is stored in a tank onboard the vehicle and is used at a rate of 2-6% of the amount of diesel consumed. The amount is automatically dosed based on engine conditions, and the low usage rate guarantees that tanks only need to be topped up occasionally. Most truck diesel pumps at large highway rest stops will have an AdBlue dosing device nearby, allowing diesel and AdBlue to be supplied simply.
