Operating temperatures of rotary kilns range from 500°C (as a gasifier) to 1450°C (as a high-temperature ash melting kiln). When used for conventional [[combustion]], the kiln temperature is generally higher than 850°C and temperatures range from 900°C to 1200°C when [[Incineration|incinerating]] [[Hazardous Waste|hazardous wastes]]. Generally, and depending on the [[waste]] input, the higher the temperature, the greater the risk of fouling and thermal stress damage to the refractory kiln lining<ref name="ref1" />. | Operating temperatures of rotary kilns range from 500°C (as a gasifier) to 1450°C (as a high-temperature ash melting kiln).
