[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Bong-su] The Korea Research Institute of Chemical Technology announced on the 23rd that it was designated as a testing institution for conformity to manufacturing standards of automotive catalysts (AdBlue) by the National Institute of Environmental Research on the 22nd. The Chemical Analysis Center at the institute plans to begin AdBlue testing services from the 6th of next month, based on its analytical equipment infrastructure and testing capabilities required for AdBlue inspection.

Until now, conformity inspections for manufacturing standards of automotive catalysts such as AdBlue could only be conducted by two organizations: the Traffic Environment Research Institute of the National Institute of Environmental Research and the Korea Petroleum Management Service. To contribute to the smooth supply of AdBlue, the institute applied for designation as a testing institution to the National Institute of Environmental Research on the 18th of this month and was selected this time. The Chemical Analysis Center at the institute possesses infrastructure and related analytical platform technology capabilities, including elemental analyzers, inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometers, density testers, refractometers, spectrophotometers, and automatic titrators necessary for AdBlue testing.

Testing is conducted by applying for catalyst (AdBlue) testing through the Chemical Analysis Center’s website and submitting the automotive catalyst test application form along with the test samples.
