The main objective of this paper is to assess the thermal performance of the RKEF process based on the actual operational data by using exergy analysis method. To identify the factors affecting exergy efficiency loss, exergy destruction caused by the main chemical reactions (fuel combustion, reduction reaction, decomposition reaction and slagging reaction) is investigated in detail.
