While the price of AdBlue is lower when purchased in bulk at the
home depot, this method can incur costly installation and equipment

No. AdBlue is a high purity chemical solution manufactured to a
strict specification and distributed through a secure supply chain.
It is highly unadvisable to attempt to create your own 32.5% urea

otherwise.
Remember - using a non DIN/ISO specification urea
solution will probably result in catalyst damage, invalidating the
vehicle's warranty!
