Why do new cars have AdBlue on board AdBlue for Passenger Cars

AdBlue for Passenger Cars Why do new cars have AdBlue on board? New cars have to fulfill European
emission legislation, which is called EURO 6. In EURO 6 there is a limited set to the maximum
hazardous NOx (nitrogen oxide) emission, which is only reached by using AdBlue
and a SCR catalyst technology. How do I know if my car has AdBlue? Simply take a look in your car's manual.
If your car has a small cap (usually blue), which says AdBlue near your diesel filling cap,
you can be certain your car is equipped with AdBlue. Sometimes this AdBlue filling point is located
near the engine or in the boot of your car.

How much AdBlue does my car use? It all depends on your driving style
and what kind of car you drive. An SUV uses more than a small sedan, of course.
The usage is related to diesel usage. On average for EURO 6 cars this will be
1 up to 3 liters for each 1.000 Kilometers. How do I know when
to fill up my AdBlue tank? Your car will give you an signal (light or message) when
you can still drive 2.400 Km before your tank is empty.

Depending on the make and model of your car,
you will get messages at 1.800 Km, 900 km, up to "Fill up now." The car will show a warning, well before
the tank is empty, so you will not miss it. And if you drive on until the tank is empty,
your car will limit performance... And at the end not start at all. How large is my AdBlue tank actually? Between 5 and 25 liters large,
again depending on make and model.

Do I only fill up during service intervals? No, because most EURO 6 cars will need a refill
before the next service interval... Due to the limited tank capacity. Why does my car have
such a small AdBlue tank? At first the idea was to have a
service to service interval for the AdBlue tank, but that would mean cars would need
20 or 50 liter tanks in some cases. Cars would become too heavy and therefore
would become too expensive due to car-tax regulations.

These are based on the CO2 emission of cars
which is directly related to fuel consumption, and every kilo a cars weighs
is translated into more fuel consumption, thus more CO2, and possibly
a higher purchase value hence the small tanks. It is possible to ask your local car dealer
to fill up your car in between service intervals, as you could also do with
oil and windscreen washer. If I would like to do it myself,
how can I best fill up the tank? You need a device that stops flowing when the tank
is full and does not drip or spill when you stop refilling. AdBlue is corrosive.

It crawls and
produces rock hard crystals when dried, so make sure you do not spill AdBlue in
or on your car as it can leave stains. If you spill AdBlue, make sure if possible
to first wipe it with a paper cloth... And then rinse it off with plenty of water. Buy a GreenChem starterkit
for passenger cars.

This contains a 4 liter bottle of AdBlue
and a special non-drip spout, which also stops the flow when the tank is full. GreenChem Efficient Quality Solutions for you:
