How do they process the rubber to turn it into pellets? When I toured the Cemex cement plant in Victorville, Ca at the NMRA Convention in 2008, they received trailer loads of used/scrap tires which were dumped into a conveyor, taken to a big grinder that ground the rubber. It then went to the burner where it was combined with ground up coal & coke to fire the kiln for processing the cement compound into clinker.
