We're glad you asked. Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) is a non-toxic, high purity solution comprised of 32.5% urea and 67.5% de-ionized water for specific use in Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) systems. Using this fluid in diesel-powered vehicles, such as trucks, buses, and tractors, helps to reduce the amount of nitrogen oxides (NOx) emitted into the air by 90%. It is not a fuel additive and must be filled into the dedicated Diesel Exhaust Fluid tank on your diesel vehicle.
Simply put, you need DEF to keep your trucks running. This is because many diesel engine manufacturers have chosen Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) technology to meet the 2010 EPA Emissions Standards. Diesel Exhaust Fluid is used in the SCR system for on-road diesel vehicles manufactured beginning in 2010. Without DEF, your diesel vehicles will not function. SCR and DEF are used to convert Nitrogen Oxide (NOx) into harmless Nitrogen and Water molecules. Nitrogen makes up about 78% of the air we breathe.
