Urea synthesis primarily occurs in the liver. It is the primary organ responsible for converting ammonia, a waste product of protein metabolism, into urea, which is then excreted by the kidneys.
The organ located just below the diaphragm that converts waste materials from the blood into urea is the liver. It plays a crucial role in detoxifying harmful substances and metabolizing proteins, resulting in the production of urea, which is then transported to the kidneys for excretion. The liver also aids in various other metabolic processes essential for maintaining overall health.
The liver produces urea when it metabolises (breaks down) proteins. This is done in hepatocytes (liver cells). Amino acids are first broken down into ammonia, which is highly soluble and toxic in the blood plasma, so ammonia is joined with carbon dioxide to make urea, this is less soluble and less toxic but a build up of urea is toxic in the blood. Urea is then transported in the blood to be filtered out by the kidneys.
All cells make urea, it is a waste product. The urea is processed by the kidneys (reabsorbing most of the water) then transfered by the ureters to the urinary bladder.
Urea can be dangerous if ingested in large quantities as it can cause irritation to the gastrointestinal tract and potentially lead to dehydration and electrolyte imbalances. Exposure to high levels of urea in the blood can also lead to kidney damage and organ failure.

I think urea, rather than being a mix of substances urea is one substance. That being said, it is removed from the blood not created.That process of filtration occurs in the kidneys and liver (I don't know the liver's job, you'll have to look into that one

The organ that excretes Urea compounds are the kidneys, BUT they do not excrete HEAT. No organ of the human body EXCRETES heat.
The skin uses sweat to excrete water and urea.

liver
Urine always contains urea because it is a primary waste product formed from the breakdown of proteins and amino acids in the liver through a process called deamination. Urea is less toxic than ammonia, allowing the body to safely excrete excess nitrogen. The kidneys filter urea from the blood and concentrate it in urine for excretion, making it a consistent component of urine production.

Urea is primarily produced in the liver as a waste product of protein metabolism. It is then excreted by the kidneys through urine.
