description Industrial furnaces play a significant role in industrial energy consumption and production. Minimizing losses from these furnaces can contribute to industrial sustainability. Exergy being an optimization tool can reduce energy loss and emission from furnaces and contribute to environmental sustainability. Currently, no exergy-based sustainability analysis has been adopted in the literature. In this analysis, a reheater furnace that is fired by natural gas is analyzed in terms of energy and exergy utilization. To address the sustainability of the furnace, several exergy-based sustainability parameters have been used. The overall energy efficiency of the furnace is 93.40%, while exergy efficiency is only 27.37%. From sustainability analysis, it is found that 72.63% of the fuel is diminished from the furnace, and it contributes to a lower sustainability index of 1.38. Higher exergy losses from this furnace positively affect the environment, which is validated from the higher value of the environmental destruction coefficient, the environmental destruction index, and the lower value of the environmental benign index. The value of the environmental destruction coefficient is 3.65, and the value of the environmental benign index is 0.38. Recovering waste energy and optimizing auxiliary equipment will increase the value of sustainability parameters.
