Thermochemical conversion of CO2 with biomass to CO in fluidized bed gasifiers is promising for a sustainable carbon economy.Knowledge about this process is expanded by investigating experimental parameters influencing CO2 conversion in such a system and combining them to demonstrate effective conversion.Wood char and CO2 are fed to a lab-scale gas
