Residues of starch manufacture, similar residues; beet-pulp, bagasse and other waste of sugar manufacture, brewing or distilling dregs and waste, whether or not in the form of pellets

HS v2017 Code: 2303

About residues of starch manufacture, similar residues; beet-pulp, bagasse and other waste of sugar manufacture, brewing or distilling dregs and waste, whether or not in the form of pellets

HS code 2303 covers a diverse range of residues and waste products generated from various industrial processes, primarily related to the manufacture of starch, sugar, and alcoholic beverages. These byproducts, though often overlooked, play a crucial role in the broader economy, serving as valuable inputs for a wide range of downstream industries.

Production process

The production of the materials covered under HS code 2303 typically involves the separation and processing of residues and waste streams generated during the manufacture of starch, sugar, and alcoholic beverages. This can include techniques such as mechanical separation, drying, and pelletization to transform the raw materials into a more stable and transportable form.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of goods under HS code 2303 include the raw materials generated as byproducts from starch, sugar, and alcohol production processes. This can include 1108 Starches; inulin from starch manufacturing, 1701 Sugars; cane or beet, solid from sugar production, and 2208 Undenatured ethyl alcohol of an alcoholic strength by volume of less than 80% vol; spirits, liqueurs and other spirituous beverages from distilling operations.

Production outputs

The outputs of the industries covered under HS code 2303 are primarily used as animal feed, soil amendments, or as inputs for further processing in other industries. The residues and waste products can be consumed by 2309 Preparations of a kind used in animal feeding, 3101 Animal or vegetable fertilizers, whether or not mixed together or chemically treated; fertilizers produced by the mixing or chemical treatment of animal or vegetable products, and potentially 2207 Undenatured ethyl alcohol of an alcoholic strength by volume of 80% vol or higher; ethyl alcohol and other spirits, denatured, of any strength for further distillation or processing.
