Abstract: Systems and methods for thermocatalytic treatment of material are provided. The system can have a charging region to supply starting material, a preconditioning zone in which preconditioned material is formed from the starting material, a pyrolysis zone in which pyrolyzed material is formed from the preconditioned material, and a separation unit for separation of the pyrolyzed material. In the preconditioning zone and the pyrolysis zone, a heater can be provided for heating of the material. Also provided in the pyrolysis zone are recirculation means with which a solid portion of the pyrolyzed material can be recirculated directly into the region of the pyrolysis zone facing toward the preconditioning zone.
