A plastic recycling system and method thereof is provided, wherein one or more plastic products are contained in a reaction unit and heated by an electric heating unit which converts electrical energy into thermal energy. The one or more plastic products in the reaction unit are decomposed to produce one or more decomposed product in gas phase through a decomposition reaction, such as pyrolysis reaction, to form one or more gaseous fuel products which are condensed into one or more liquid phase fuel products by a condensation unit.

An arrangement for the recycling of carbon and hydrocarbon compounds from organic input material is provided. The arrangement includes: a reactor comprising a chamber that is limited by a jacket and upper and lower end-wall sections, gas inlet means for the supply of heated inert gas to the input material, whereby the gas inlet means is connected in a manner that transfers gas to a gas emission source, and gas outlets for leading the gas out of the chamber, where the gas outlet means comprises openings through which gas flows intended to supply the gas into the chamber, whereby the openings through which gas flows are arranged such that a fall in pressure is generated during the supply of gas that exceeds the fall in pressure of the gas during passage through the input material that has been introduced into the chamber. A corresponding method is also described.
