Diesel engines — NOx reduction agent AUS 32 — Part 1: Quality requirements

ISO 22241-1:2006 specifies the quality characteristics of the NOx reduction agent AUS 32 (aqueous urea solution) which is needed to operate converters with selective catalytic reduction, so-called SCR (Selective Catalytic Reduction) converters, in motor vehicles with diesel engines. SCR converters are particularly suitable for selectively reducing the nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions of diesel engines.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 22241-1 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 22, Road vehicles, Subcommittee SC 5, Engine
tests.
This first edition cancels and replaces ISO/PAS 22241-1:2005, which has been technically revised.
ISO 22241 consists of the following parts, under the general title Diesel engines — NOx reduction agent
AUS 32:
⎯ Part 1: Quality requirements
⎯ Part 2: Test methods
The following parts are under preparation:
⎯ Part 3: Packaging, transportation and storage

Introduction
In order to protect the environment, keeping the air quality as clean as possible, exhaust emissions
regulations around the world have been strengthened considerably. In motor vehicles with diesel engines,
particulate matters (PM) and nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions are the main concern, and efforts have been
focused on the development of technology which can reduce them effectively with minimum fuel economy
penalty. Selective catalytic reduction (SCR) converters using urea solution as the reduction agent is
considered to be a key technology for reducing NOx emissions. The quality of the urea solution used for that
technology needs to be specified to ensure reliable and stable operation of the SCR converter systems. The
ISO 22241 series provides the specifications for quality characteristics, for handling, transportation and
storage and for the refilling interface as well as the test methods, needed by the manufacturers of motor
vehicles and their engines, by converter manufacturers, by producers and distributors of the urea solution and
by fleet operators.
The urea solution as specified in this part of ISO 22241 is commercially available, e.g. under the registered

Part 1:
Quality requirements
1 Scope
This part of ISO 22241 specifies the quality characteristics of the NOx reduction agent AUS 32 (aqueous urea
