Abstract
A honeycomb body, in particular for aftertreatment of exhaust gas from an internal combustion engine, includes an inlet surface, an outlet surface and a honeycomb structure through which a fluid can flow. The honeycomb structure is disposed between the inlet surface and the outlet surface. The honeycomb structure has a storage device for storing at least one component of the fluid. A measurement sensor measures a concentration of the component in the fluid. The measurement sensor is disposed in the honeycomb structure at a given minimum distance from the outlet surface. A method for treating a fluid with the honeycomb body is also provided. The honeycomb body and method advantageously enable components of the fluid, e.g. nitrogen oxides (NO), to be stored and reliably prevent the component which is to be stored from breaking through.
