Norwegian company Yara International has opened the world's biggest AdBlue facility in Brunsbüttel, Germany, which has production capacity of 1.1 million tons. AdBlue is a urea solution which, when injected into the Selective Catalytic Reduction catalyst on vehicles, turns toxic NOx fumes into nitrogen and water vapour. The $34.5m (€28m) Brunsbüttel plant houses a 17,500 m3 AdBlue storage tank, as well as a deep sea ship loading facility and fully automated truck loading station. Yara has a total of five AdBlue plants globally which now have the capacity to remove approximately half a million tons of NOx emissions.
