DEF is treating products of combustion as I understand it, specifically oxides of nitrogen. No chemist or engineer, but seems like whatever is in diesel fuel that produces NOX in combustion would have to be removed from the fuel.
And on further reading, NOX formation seems to be related to high temperature combustion processes, which must be the major challenge in cleaning diesel exhaust.
Maybe if we all put it in our tires it would help!:R
Even though it's fairly new here, DEF has been in use in Europe for years.
Do you REALLY think the FEDS would allow companies to stop producing the stuff and make thousands of trucks non-runners??
feds thinking??? not the current model.
