Diesel Exhaust Fluid

A Catalyst for a Greener Future

Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF), or Aqueous Urea Solution (AUS32), is a 32.5% urea solution used to reduce NOx emissions in diesel engines equipped with Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) systems. It is injected into the exhaust system, where it decomposes into ammonia, which the SCR catalyst then converts to water. DEF helps vehicles meet emission standards and improve air quality.

Key Benefits of DEF

By embracing DEF technology, industries and individuals can contribute to a cleaner and healthier planet.

What is Diesel Exhaust Fluid?

Diesel Exhaust Fuel (DEF) is the name for an Aqueous Urea Solution of  67.5% water and 32.5% urea  (AUS32). It is found in vehicles and diesel generators as part of a process known as Selective Catalyst Reduction (SCR)

How DEF can reduce harmful vehicle emissions

When injected into the exhaust system of diesel engines, DEF significantly reduces harmful nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions. This reduction is achieved through a chemical reaction that converts NOx into harmless nitrogen and water vapour.

Urea’s popularity has increased not only because of regulations, but also due to its increased efficiency compared to exhaust gas recirculation systems. Research suggests that the catalyst reduction saves approximately 5% to 9% more fuel than a gas recirculation engine.
