The generation of soot is a significant challenge in industries. The most effective approach to eliminate soot is to oxidize it in the high-temperature furnace. In this study, soot with different properties was produced the by non-catalytic partial oxidation process at high temperatures. The real-time oxidation processes of soot nanoparticles at 900°C were studied by in situ transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The industrial soot performs various oxidation models. The corresponding mathematical expressions of different oxidation models were developed. The incipient soot of shrinking core model (SCM) has a faster reaction rate than the partially matured soot of internal oxidation model (IOM) and the mature soot of SCM. A rare core-shell separation model (CSM) was studied. The nanostructures of soot in different oxidation models were characterized, and the relationship between macroscopic properties and nanostructures was established by Raman results and lattice fringe analysis, effective in the prediction of soot oxidation behavior.
