AdBlue is a clear liquid and consists of a 32.5% urea solution mixed with demineralised water; this solution is made to an ISO standard with the AdBlue trademark being registered to the VDA (German Association of the Automobile Industry). This ISO standard ensures AdBlue is consistent in quality and will ensure maximum engine performance in an SCR vehicle. It is a critical part of AdBlue manufacture that the urea is free from imperfections. The urea used in fertiliser is not suitable for use in SCR engines. Being 67.5% demineralised water AdBlue is safe to handle with a minimum of safety precautions required. AdBlue is not harmful for humans or animals and non-explosive. If contact is made with skin, AdBlue only requires washing with water. AdBlue can go to ground with no harmful affects, In fact AdBlue is completely biodegradable.
