You will need to first create a new class implementing IFacebookApplication.

private class RequestScopedFacebookApplication : IFacebookApplication
{
        private IFacebookApplication Current
        {
            get
            {
                var url = HttpContext.Current.Request.Url;
                var app = GetSettingsForUrl(url);
                return app;
            }
        }

        public string AppId
        {
            get { return Current.AppId; }
        }
        /* ....... */
}

Then in the Application_Start of global.asax, set your facebook application.

public void Application_Start()
{
     FacebookApplication.SetApplication(new RequestScopedFacebookApplication());
}
