    might be a kiln ... high chimney is to get stronger breeze and thus better draft

    Where do you live?  Never seen such a building.  But if i was guessing I'd say sewage waste pump or maybe a air vent to reduce air locks.  The tall pipe is to vent the odor high so it gets disbursed So the public doesn't smell the sewage odor.

    Possibly part of a waste water/sewage system. The pipe is to vent gases harmlessly.  Do you hear a pump running inside?

    It looks like an old time local trash burner.
