  "abstract": "<p>Biomass gasification in Circulating fluidized beds (CFB) is one of the most promising<br>\nconversion processes in meeting future ecologically compatible and sustainable energy demand,<br>\nbased on a combination of flexibility, efficiency, and environmental acceptability. Widespread<br>\nindustrial use of CFB technology in coal and biomass combustion and gasification depends on<br>\nimproved control of the fluidization process that demands a better understanding of fluidized bed<br>\nhydrodynamics. However, its application to CFB systems is limited due to the high<br>\ncomputational requirements for understanding complex fluid flow behavior. The effect of<br>\ndifferent operating parameters on the hydrodynamic behavior of a two-phase gas-solid CFB<br>\nbiomass gasifier were studied in this thesis work systematically using computational fluid<br>\ndynamics (CFD) software FLUENT.</p>",
