Click here to read about after-treatment of diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) also known as AdBlue. We take a look at what diesel exhaust fluid is and why it’s needed.

While flow-through substrates are ideal to support catalytic activity and eliminate harmful gaseous pollutants, they are not focused on reducing particulates from exhaust. Particulates are usually the result of incompletely combusted fuel. In diesel vehicles, that is where Corning...
Is the Automotive Future Electric? The future of the automotive industry is undoubtedly leaning towards electric vehicles, as EVs do not produce emissions like petrol and diesel vehicles. Electric vehicles have lower operational costs compared to other biofuel vehicles. Additionally, these vehicles requir...
Greenwashing isn't always an overtly false claim; it can be a claim that isn't entirely accurate or is in some way deceptive or misleading. For example, the European Commission found in a 2020 study of 150 corporate environmental claims that 53% gave vague, misleading or unfounded information...
The WLTC is based on the class 3b vehicle driving standard procedure (DieselNet, 2019). The WLTC profile is the closest to the real-world data, even though it is still inappropriate considering all types of emissions (Chindamo and Gadola, 2018). Aged cells have also been tested for repurpos...
The base tax credit will decrease to 26% of the installed equipment cost in 2033 and to 22% for systems installed in 2034. Afterward, the credit is set to expire. There's no limit to the amount of credit you can claim so long as the equipment qualifies for the credit. Energy ...
Turbocharged engines generate more power than naturally-aspirated engines of the same size. And the combustion process becomes more efficient. Furthermore, this helps reduce emissions and enhance the driving experience. A turbocharger is highly engineered with high-value components. The next step ...
AdBlue is a diesel exhaust fluid, not a fuel additive. It's stored in a separate tank and is topped up via a (usually) blue filler cap located either next to your fuel filler, in the boot or under the bonnet. It’s extremely important that AdBlue is never added to the fuel tank ...
Limitations were set on how much coastal water and seafloor a nation could claim as its own. The territorial sea, that aquatic boundary along a nation's coast that extends its terrestrial boundaries, was set at 12 nautical miles (13.8 miles and 22.2 km). The convention also set clear ...
