Kiln Modifications. Cement kilns may require modifications to handle different types of alternative fuels. For example, a kiln that burns tires or waste oils may need additional burners or preheating systems. Retrofitting these systems can be expensive, but the long-term cost savings from using cheaper fuels often justify the investment.
