When Euro 4 emission standards began to be implemented, two exhaust treatment technologies were adopted by car manufacturers: Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) and Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR).The SCR technology offers advantages such as low equipment cost, durability, high exhaust treatment efficiency, low maintenance costs, and not overly high fuel and lubricant standards requirements, so it is commonly chosen by car manufacturers for use in commercial vehicles using diesel engines.<\/p>\n

What is the SCR exhaust gas treatment system?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) technology is the name of an active emission control system widely applied to diesel engines in both road and marine vehicles, reducing pollutant emissions into the environment. This technology requires the use of urea solution injected into the exhaust stream of diesel engines. The SCR exhaust treatment system<\/strong> is designed to allow chemical reactions to occur to eliminate harmful nitrogen oxides present in engine exhaust.<\/p>\n

\"S\u01a1<\/p>\n

The catalyst used for the SCR system is called AdBlue or urea solution, also known as Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF). DEF initiates a chemical reaction that converts nitrogen oxides into nitrogen, water vapor, and a small amount of carbon dioxide (CO2), which are then emitted through the vehicle\u2019s exhaust pipe.<\/p>\n

Why is SCR important?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The SCR technology is the most advanced technology to date with low costs and optimized fuel savings.<\/p>\n

In Vietnam, as of January 1, 2018, all imported or domestically assembled diesel engines must meet Euro 4 standards<\/p>\n

As of January 1, 2022, all newly imported or domestically assembled diesel engines must meet Euro 5 emission standards, which reduce harmful emissions into the environment by over 85%.<\/p>\n

SCR can reduce NOx emissions by up to 90%. It also reduces HC and CO emissions by 50-90% and PM (particulate matter) emissions by 30-50%. SCR systems can also be combined with diesel particulate filters to further reduce emissions of PM.<\/p>\n

In the transportation industry, some companies with fleets equipped with SCR emission control systems have observed fuel savings of 3-5% compared to vehicles equipped with EGR systems.<\/p>\n

Where is SCR used?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

SCR has been used for many years in road transportation engines, maritime engines, industrial machinery, and construction vehicles\u2026With increasingly stringent emission standards for the maritime industry, SCR systems are also being used on ships to meet IMO Tier 3 standards.<\/p>\n

With its high economic and environmental benefits, the SCR exhaust treatment system is also recognized as a particularly useful emission control technology in meeting the emission standards of Euro 4 diesel engines and above.<\/p>\n

Special considerations when using vehicles equipped with SCR systems?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

When operating a vehicle equipped with an SCR system, you need to refill the Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) as soon as the warning for low fluid level appears \u2013 This container is installed on the vehicle and completely independent of the diesel fuel tank. Users are extremely careful to avoid confusion between the diesel tank and the AdBlue solution, and vice versa.<\/p>\n

The consumption of AdBlue depends on various factors: vehicle type, operating conditions, distance traveled, load, and driving style\u2026<\/p>\n

Where is the Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) tank located?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The diesel engine exhaust treatment fluid is a mandatory catalyst for the SCR emission control system. When the AdBlue level drops to a low level, warning lights or sounds will appear on the vehicle to signal the need to refill this fluid.<\/p>\n

Once the AdBlue level in the tank reaches a low threshold. The vehicle\u2019s starting system may be disabled, or the engine power significantly reduced. Normal operation will resume after adding this catalyst. Nowadays, DEF (Diesel Exhaust Fluid), also known as AdBlue, refilling stations have become increasingly available at gas stations and retail points across the country, making it more accessible to refill this solution.<\/p>\n

The DEF (Diesel Exhaust Fluid) tank, commonly referred to by drivers as urea solution or AdBlue, is usually located in the rear trunk near the engine in passenger vehicles, while in travel or commercial trucks, this tank is often placed alongside the diesel fuel tank. In hot and humid conditions like those in our country, it\u2019s advisable to store DEF away from direct sunlight and heat sources.<\/p>\n

DEF is a non-toxic, colorless liquid primarily composed of deionized water (DI) and pure urea.<\/p>\n

DEF solution is now widely available on the market with various packaging sizes and brands, offering a wide range of capacities and types. This solution is evaluated for quality according to the ISO 22241 standard.<\/p>\n
