Abstract
The aim of this work is the understanding of the changes in the structure of soot during the combustion process. Soot formation in the combustion process of diesel engines and changes of structure during after-treatment are important topics because of the risk of penetration of the soot particles into the lungs and harmful interference with the human body. The oxidation behaviour is therefore an important issue for the elimination of soot in the after treatment process.
