Undenatured ethyl alcohol of an alcoholic strength by volume of 80% vol or higher

cpc code 24110 covers the production and trade of undenatured ethyl alcohol with an alcoholic strength of 80% or higher by volume. This high-purity ethanol is a critical industrial input, finding applications in a wide range of sectors including chemical manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, and fuel production. As a versatile and valuable commodity, the global trade in undenatured ethyl alcohol plays a significant role in supporting economic activity across numerous industries.

Undenatured ethyl alcohol of 80% or higher alcoholic strength is typically produced through the fermentation of sugar-rich feedstocks, such as molasses, sugarcane, or corn. The fermentation process converts the sugars into ethanol, which is then distilled to increase the alcohol concentration. Further purification steps, such as rectification and dehydration, are used to remove impurities and achieve the desired high-purity ethanol product.

The main inputs required for the production of undenatured ethyl alcohol under cpc code 24110 include sugar-rich agricultural feedstocks, fermentation equipment, distillation columns, and various chemical reagents used in the purification process. Specialized machinery and energy sources, such as steam or electricity, are also essential for the efficient operation of the production facilities.

The primary output of cpc code 24110 is high-purity undenatured ethyl alcohol, which can be used as a feedstock or solvent in a variety of industries. This ethanol may be further processed or blended with other materials to create a wide range of products, including 24200 Chemical and organic basic materials, 21000 Pharmaceuticals, medicinal chemical and botanical products, and 19200 Refined petroleum products.
