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.

A feed system for a reactor, a reactor assembly comprising such a feed system, and a method of supplying a feed material to a reactor with a feed system are provided. The reactor may be a pyrolysis reactor, such as a fluidised bed pyrolysis reactor. A method of pyrolysing a feed material is also provided. The feed system may comprise a feed conduit extending from an inlet to an outlet, and may have a first section including the inlet and a second section including the outlet. The first section may accommodate an auger. The second section may comprise at least one plug forming zone in which feed material is compressed into a substantially gas-tight plug during operation. There may be a temperature regulator for controlling the temperature in the second section. The temperature regulator may comprise a cooling jacket.
