Abstract: Provided herein are systems, apparatuses, and methods for localized, on-demand diesel exhaust fluid (“DEF”) production. The systems can comprise a loading station for securing a container comprising a pre-measured quantity of urea and releasing the urea from the container. The released urea and water can then be fed into a mixing tank to produce the DEF product. The water can be pre-treated, for example, in a reverse osmosis and/or deionization process before being fed to the mixing tank. The DEF product can be immediately dispensed into a diesel vehicle or stored in a nearby intermediate storage tank. The systems and processes advantageously reduce or eliminate the need for over-the-road shipments and retail packaging of DEF.
