Popis:	We present a highly-detailed discussion on the pore development in sewage sludge char to better understand its transformation and subsequent role in volatiles reforming. Interactions with the pyrolytic gas can change the porosity of biochar that subsequently participates in the volatiles reforming, thus affecting the product yield and quality. The results demonstrated that H2O activation was more susceptible to the catalytic effects of inorganics, pointing out the more selective nature of CO2. Interestingly, we found important difference between ultra- and supermicropores role in the CO2 activation and toluene conversion. Thus, we suggest distinguishing the micropore types in char porosity assessment.
