A pyrolysis reactor and process for processing or recycling waste material. The pyrolysis reactor defines an internal cavity, and includes an inlet for the transfer of feedstock material into the internal cavity and an outlet for the transfer of processed material out of the internal cavity. The pyrolysis reactor also includes an induction heating apparatus comprising up to three induction heaters arranged outside of the internal cavity and an induction susceptor within the internal cavity e.g. granules up to 50 mm diameter and/or a helical stirrer including an induction susceptor material. The induction heating apparatus is configured to heat feedstock material within the internal cavity.
