A method for converting a carpet, rug, plastic material and/or other waste source to a Clean Fuel Gas source and a Char source comprising: inputting a carpet, rug, plastic material and/or other waste source into a thermolysis system; optionally increasing the moisture content of the waste source by injecting steam into the system; undergoing a depolymerization and a cracking reaction of hydrocarbons in the carpet, rug and/or other polymeric material waste source; destroying and/or removing toxic compounds present in the carpet, rug and/or other polymeric material waste source; and generating the Clean Fuel Gas and Char source, wherein the thermolysis system comprises at least one primary reactor and at least one secondary reactor; wherein the at least one primary reactor or the at least one secondary reactor has a process temperature of from 300°C to 800°C for the waste source to undergo at least partial gasification; wherein any oils and tars created are recycled into the secondary reactor and a cracking reactor to be converted into additional Clean Fuel Gas source; wherein the method comprises a gas scrubber(s) step, wherein the Clean Fuel Gas source is scrubbed and vapor components undergo fractionated condensation; wherein the method does not generate any toxic halogenated organic compounds in the process of converting the waste source to the Clean Fuel Gas source and the Char source; wherein the Clean Fuel Gas source is used for power to a system or application; wherein the Char source can be recycled and/or contains recoverable metals; wherein the Clean Fuel Gas source and the Char source do not include tars and/or oils; and wherein the Clean Fuel Gas and Char source contain less than 10 ppb of halogenated organic compounds. inputting a carpet, rug, plastic material and/or other waste source into a thermolysis system; optionally increasing the moisture content of the waste source by injecting steam into the system; undergoing a depolymerization and a cracking reaction of hydrocarbons in the carpet, rug and/or other polymeric material waste source; destroying and/or removing toxic compounds present in the carpet, rug and/or other polymeric material waste source; and generating the Clean Fuel Gas and Char source, wherein the thermolysis system comprises at least one primary reactor and at least one secondary reactor; wherein the at least one primary reactor or the at least one secondary reactor has a process temperature of from 300°C to 800°C for the waste source to undergo at least partial gasification; wherein any oils and tars created are recycled into the secondary reactor and a cracking reactor to be converted into additional Clean Fuel Gas source; wherein the method comprises a gas scrubber(s) step, wherein the Clean Fuel Gas source is scrubbed and vapor components undergo fractionated condensation; wherein the method does not generate any toxic halogenated organic compounds in the process of converting the waste source to the Clean Fuel Gas source and the Char source; wherein the Clean Fuel Gas source is used for power to a system or application; wherein the Char source can be recycled and/or contains recoverable metals; wherein the Clean Fuel Gas source and the Char source do not include tars and/or oils; and wherein the Clean Fuel Gas and Char source contain less than 10 ppb of halogenated organic compounds. <EOS>
