The simultaneous reduction of NOx and soot emissions from diesel engines is a major research subject and a challenge in today's world. One prospective solution involves diesel fuel reformulation by addition of oxygenated compounds, such as dimethoxymethane (DMM). In this context, different DMM oxidation experiments have been carried out in an atmospheric pressure gas-phase installation, in the 573-1373 K temperature range, from pyrolysis to fuel-lean conditions. The results obtained have been interpreted by means of a detailed gas-phase chemical kinetic mechanism. Results indicate that the initial oxygen concentration slightly influences the consumption of DMM. However, certain effects can be observed in the profiles of the main products (CH4, CH3OH, CH3OCHO, CO, CO2, C2H2, C2H4, and C2H6). Acetylene, an important soot precursor, is only formed under pyrolysis and reducing conditions. In general, a good agreement between experimental and modeling data was observed.
