Abstract: A reactor system for pyrolysis of carbonaceous waste, a method of treating waste comprising carbonaceous waste by pyrolysis in the reactor system, and uses of particulate material in the reactor system and/or method, are provided. The reactor system comprises a fluidised bed pyrolysis reactor. The fluidised bed pyrolysis reactor comprises a shell defining a heating chamber, the heating chamber having a fluidised bed zone configured to contain a fluidised bed of particulate material comprising particulate material susceptible to inductive heating. The reactor system also comprises a pyrolysis induction heater assembly comprising an induction emitter configured to inductively heat the particulate material. The shell of the reactor is made from an inductively inert material.

Abstract: A process for treating waste comprising Mixed Plastic Waste is disclosed. The process includes feeding the waste to a pyrolysis reactor, pyrolysing the waste in the pyrolysis reactor to produce a fuel and using the fuel to run a generator to produce electricity.
