When it comes to the storage and dispensing of AdBlue, dedicated AdBlue holding tanks are a crucial component for any operation that relies on diesel-powered vehicles or machinery, whether large or small.
AdBlue, a high-purity aqueous urea solution, is essential for Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) systems, which are designed to reduce nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions from diesel engines. To maintain the integrity and effectiveness of AdBlue, proper storage is crucial.
Benefits of an AdBlue Tank
AdBlue is a carefully manufactured solution that can be sensitive to contamination and extreme temperatures. For this reason, it must be stored in dedicated AdBlue tanks, which offer:
-
Purity Preservation: AdBlue can be easily contaminated by dirt, dust, or other chemicals, which can damage the SCR system and lead to costly repairs. A dedicated AdBlue tank is designed to be clean and sealed, preventing any contamination.
-
Temperature Stability: AdBlue freezes at -11°C (12.2°F) and can also degrade at consistently high temperatures. AdBlue tanks are equipped with heating elements or insulation to maintain optimal temperature ranges, particularly in environments with fluctuating climates.
-
Corrosion Prevention: AdBlue is mildly corrosive to certain metals, particularly those that are incompatible with its chemical composition. Dedicated tanks are constructed from high-grade, compatible plastics (such as polyethylene) or stainless steel, ensuring longevity and preventing tank degradation or AdBlue contamination.
-
Convenience: For fleets, agricultural operations, or industrial sites, having a readily available supply of AdBlue on-site minimises downtime and ensures vehicles can be topped up efficiently when needed. Tanks can be equipped with integrated pumping systems, nozzles, and flow meters for easy and accurate dispensing.
-
Cost Efficiency: Purchasing AdBlue in bulk and storing it in large tanks is significantly more economical than buying it in smaller containers. This can lead to substantial savings for businesses with high consumption rates.
-
Environmental Compliance: Reliable access to AdBlue ensures that vehicles can consistently operate within emission standards, helping businesses meet environmental regulations and avoid potential fines.
Investing in a high-quality, purpose-built AdBlue holding tank will ensure the longevity of your SCR systems, optimise operational efficiency, and contribute to environmental responsibility.
