<p>An apparatus for pyrolysing waste material comprises a reactor (1) for pyrolysing waste products, a plurality of containers (9) for the waste products, and means (3) for forming a stack (19) of the containers within the reactor and for moving the stack of containers through the reactor. Means (11, 29) are provided for adding a container (9) to a first end of the stack and for removing a container from a second end of the stack. Means (35) are provided for passing a hot non-oxidising gas, such as steam, through the containers within the reactor so as to pyrolyse the waste products in the containers, and means (45) are also provided for cooling gas exiting the reactor. The waste material may be tyres.</p> |
