I am looking for references that have reported on the impact of autoclaving on biochar properties. If you know of a reference, please let me know. Thank you.

Drying and size distribution are important factors, https://www.omicsonline.org/open-access/poresize-and-water-activity-effects-on-survival-of-rhizobium-tropici-inbiochar-inoculant-carriers-1948-5948-1000300.php?aid=79272
