RE: required amount of air
I looked in my copy of CE combustion handbook. Wood (dry basis) is typically close to 50% by carbon, 7% H2 and the balance is nearly all oxygen. Bagasse was given as just under 45% for carbon, 6% for H2 and the balance for oxygen. I have no data how bark compares to these numbers. The water content is also going to be significant.
% are weight percents.

The book also gives the % constituents of average wood.
