WHAT IS DEF, AND WHAT IS DEF USED FOR?
Diesel Exhaust Fluid (known as DEF) is a solution composed of 67.5% de-ionized water and 32.5% urea, which is used with SCR (Selective Catalytic Reduction) to break down nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions from diesel vehicles. DEF works by breaking down the nitrous oxide in exhaust steam into nitrogen and water. DEF is sprayed into the exhaust of diesel vehicles, where it breaks down the NOx in the exhaust steam into nitrogen and water.
