Probably a dumb question, but I'd appreciate any help. Thanks.

Normally it is the combustion air coming from outside. There could
be some recirculation in the design. Gas would typically be
introduced to heat up the system before waste is introduced, and could be
used constantly if burning waste with a low heating value such that
auxiliary fuel was needed. My impression is these systems can be
tricky to design and operate. There could be an imbalance between
the amount of gas/air needed to fluidize the bed properly, and the amount
needed for proper combustion.....
I hope this is of some help.
