Urea DEF Storage
Containment Solutions (CSI) was the first fiberglass tank manufacturer in North America to complete independent third party testing for Urea DEF compatibility. CSI underground fiberglass chemical tanks meet the quality and storage requirements in the ISO standard and the PEI Recommended Practice for storing Urea DEF.
Understanding Urea DEF
Urea DEF (Diesel Exhaust Fluid) is used to control diesel engine discharges in order to meet EPA emission standards. Most new diesel vehicles use SCR (Selective Catalytic Reduction) systems to inject Urea DEF directly into the exhaust stream to chemically neutralize about 90% of harmful NOx emissions. Urea DEF, or AUS 32, is a mixture of 32.5% urea solution in demineralized/deioni
zed or distilled water. The purity of the Urea DEF is critical for the SCR process to work. This process also improves fuel efficiency 3%-6%.
As the number of SCR systems on the road increase to meet EPA standards, diesel dispensing facilities will require ample storage to meet the growing demand. Most estimates project that by 2014, DEF demand will reach between 300 and 750 million gallons nationwide.
What separates a CSI fiberglass Urea DEF tank from other options?
Thanks to a unique computer driven manufacturing process, our inner tank wall is not air-inhibited resulting in a glossy, smooth surface without the need for wax coatings/liners. The automated process produces a consistent, uniform tank thickness and allows for advanced fabrication methods like surface veil on the inner surface.
We utilize a special surface veil on the inner tank wall to meet the ASTM D4097 standard for FRP tanks for chemical storage. Though not required by ISO 22241, this extra layer of protection will keep your system working properly for years. Inferior tanks without this added level of security risk future contamination and loss of product.
The purity requirements of diesel exhaust fluid makes your storage decision an important one. Choose the company that is recognized as an equipment supplier for DEF products, choose Containment Solutions.
Containment Solutions was the first bulk storage tank provider recognized by Terra Environmental Technologies (TET). TET, the largest North American producer of Diesel Exhaust Fluid, added CSI to their list of Equipment Suppliers for both the US and Canadian markets.
