Quality management is a structured and organized system to ensure that the products or services produced meet predetermined quality standards. This system aims to achieve the main goal of customer satisfaction.
AdBlue® must meet quality standards that define the requirements for chemical composition, physical properties, and performance characteristics that AdBlue® must meet. AdBlue® manufacturers and distributors must have an effective quality management system (QMS) to ensure that products and operational activities meet the standards. PT Hasgara Cipta Gusana has ISO 9001 certification, where ISO 9001 is a standard that regulates international quality management systems.
An effective Quality Management System must include:
- Quality control processes: This includes raw material inspection, production process monitoring, and final product testing.
- Documentation procedures: The organization must document all quality management system processes and procedures.
- Staff training: The organization must train staff on the quality management system and its proper implementation.
- Internal audits: The organization should conduct internal audits periodically to ensure the quality management system runs effectively.
- Corrective and preventive actions: The organization should take corrective actions to address issues identified in internal audits. It must also take preventive actions to prevent future problems.
The quality control process for AdBlue® should include the following steps:
- Raw material inspection: The organization should check raw materials, such as water and urea, to ensure they meet quality standards.
- Monitoring of the production process: The organization should monitor the production process to ensure it produces AdBlue® according to specifications.
- Final product testing: The final product must be tested to ensure that it meets ISO 22241 quality standards.
- Internal and external audits should also be conducted periodically to ensure that the QMS is running effectively.
A good quality management system can have a significant impact on SCR performance and diesel vehicle emissions. By ensuring that AdBlue® meets stringent quality standards, quality management can play a role in producing high-quality AdBlue®, which helps SCR systems in diesel engines work more efficiently and leads to greater reductions in NOx emissions.
An effective quality management system is an important tool to ensure that AdBlue® meets stringent quality standards and maximizes the benefits of SCR systems. Distributors and manufacturers of AdBlue® should commit to implementing a robust quality management system to ensure that their products meet the highest standards and contribute to a cleaner environment.
