Cement Kiln
A rotary kiln that produces cement and concrete products.
Notes
The Cement Kiln is an advanced crafting station that produces cement, reinforced concrete, fiber reinforced concrete, and sulfurcrete, and requires placement inside a Tier 3 room with at least 24 m³ of free volume. It emits 2.4 air pollution PPM per hour while running and accepts Advanced or Masonry Advanced Upgrade modules to reduce resource and labor costs. If your settlement is transitioning to concrete infrastructure, build this kiln inside a high-grade room to keep pollution manageable and maximize upgrade efficiency.
