In this study, the rotary kiln of cement industry is taken as the control volume having the length of 75 m,diameter of 4.35 m and capacity of 4400 MTD. The average operational data for the rotary kiln is collected for thewinter period in the December month of the 2015 for the rotary kiln situated at Gujarat Sidhee Cement Ltd, Morasa, GirSomnath, Gujarat, India for the numerical calculations. This paper reviewed mass and energy balance and analysis,exergy analysis for the dry process cement industry. The energy lost from the kiln shell is about 6.4 MW. The results forthe analysis show that the 33.63% of the total exergy is still wasted to the environment though the pre calcining and preheating of the raw material. The overall kiln exergy analysis show the irreversibility of 61.71% and the first and secondlaw efficiency for the rotary kiln of GSCL is 51.90% and 38.29% respectively.
