In the case of the global warming impact, however, direct burning was shown to be more beneficial when coal is displaced. If fuels other than coal or pet coke were to be displaced in cement kilns by the direct burning of used oil the analysis would conclude that the regeneration of used oil is overall beneficial compared to direct burning.
