Novel two-stage bubbling fluidised bed enabled waste wood gasification without additional bed material, Combined secondary air and steam-saturated air improved stability and inhibited slag formation, Steam addition reduced PAH16 and BTX by up to 85 % and 65 %, High gas yields (1.9-2.8 Nm3kg-1) achieved cold gas efficiencies up to 57.8 %, Low tar contents without gas cleaning: PAH16 120-403 mgNm-3, total 0.9-2.8 gNm-3
