    filters make it possible to start reducing and dosing NOX at an early stage. A disadvantage of using such an SCRF is that NO 2 (nitrogen dioxide) is reduced to a relatively high degree. N02 is needed in the SCRF system to enable soot to be burned in the filter, so-called passive regeneration. A filter coated with SCR function here shows greatly impaired passive regeneration compared with a conventional particle filter.
    To effect regeneration of an SCRF, the so-called active regeneration required. This is undesirable for several reasons. One reason is that expensive components comprising precious metal are necessary to achieve the desired function.
    In some cases, an external injector for a hydrocarbon-based reducing agent will be required.
    WO 2010/075345 describes a system and method for exhaust gas treatment.
    The system comprises a particle filter coated with SCR function.

    A further object of the invention is to provide an alternative method, an alternative device and an alternative computer program in an SCR system.
    These objects are achieved by a method in an SCR system according to claim 1.
    According to one aspect of the invention, there is provided a process in an SCR system in which reducing agent is supplied to an exhaust gas stream from an engine for purifying the exhaust gases with respect to, inter alia, NOX content comprising an SCR catalyst and an upstream SCR catalyst arranged and for SCR-coated first supply of reducing agent arranged upstream of said filter and a second function filter, a dosing unit for dosing unit for supplying reducing agent arranged upstream of said SCR catalyst and downstream of said filter, comprising the steps of: - continuously determining a differential pressure over said filter; - where applicable, controlling the dosage of said first and said second dosage unit based on the differential pressure thus determined across said filter.
    By providing two dosing units for supplying reducing agent, dosing of reducing agent upstream of said filter can be adapted to soot load in said filter. Said differential pressure across said filter is proportional to a prevailing soot load. The SCR system can be arranged to dose a smaller amount of reducing agent by means of the said In this case, a process is advantageously provided where a sufficient amount of NO 2 comes to the first dosing unit when the differential pressure is relatively high. be present for passive regeneration of soot stored in said filter. According to this aspect, the SCR system can dose a higher amount of reducing agent to achieve desired NOX conversion in the SCR catalyst downstream of said filter.
    At normal soot load in said filter, both the first dosing unit and the second dosing unit can be used to achieve maximum NOX conversion and minimal ammonia slip.
    According to one aspect of the invention, passive regeneration of said filters coated with SCR function can be made possible. Advantageously, the need for an external dosing unit for the supply of a hydrocarbon-based reducing agent is reduced.
    Advantageously, the risk of crystal formation of dosed reducing agent is reduced because the two dosage units provided can cooperate with respect to the total dosed amount of reducing agent.
    Advantageously, a less bulky SCR catalyst can be provided since said filters coated with SCR function are partly arranged to act as an SCR catalyst.
    The method may further comprise the step of: - determining NOX content in the exhaust gases upstream of said filter as a basis for total need for reducing agent dosing. In this case, a need for reducing agent dosage can be determined in a robust and reliable manner.
    The method may comprise the step of: - at a high determined differential pressure corresponding to high particle accumulation in the filter, controlling the dosage of said dosage units to a smaller dosage of said first dosage unit. Hereby, passive regeneration of said filter can be achieved in a simple and robust manner. In this case, clogging of said filter can be effectively avoided.
    The method may comprise the step of: - at a low determined differential pressure corresponding to low particle accumulation in the filter, controlling the dosage of said dosage units to a higher dosage of said first dosage unit. In this case, a high degree of conversion of NOX into an exhaust gas stream from an engine can be achieved.

By operating temperature is meant a said and said reached temperature where the SCR catalyst can operate in the intended manner. Said operating temperature can be within a respective temperature range where the SCR catalyst has its normal operating range.
    In cold start, the dosing of reducing agent can take place only by means of said first dosing unit independent of said differential pressure. In cold start, the dosing of reducing agent can take place only by means of said first dosing unit based on a determined NOX flow in said exhaust gases.
    In this case, an efficient exhaust gas treatment can be initiated at an early stage, without having to wait for the SCR catalyst to reach its operating temperature. In this case, an environmentally friendly procedure is achieved with an SCR system.
