Abstract
The reactions of soot particulates and carbons with three oxidising ag ents expected in the exhaust gases from a diesel engine have been stud ied. Nitrogen dioxide has been found to be an efficient gasifying agen t for carbons, carbon oxides and nitric oxide being produced. The reac tion with diesel particulates commences above c. 150 degrees C: with g raphite, gasification became significant only above c. 550 degrees C. The presence of oil on the particulates does not affect gasification. (C) 1998 SCI.
