Beet-pulp, bagasse and other waste of sugar manufacture; whether or not in the form of pellets

HS v2017 Code: 230320

About beet-pulp, bagasse and other waste of sugar manufacture; whether or not in the form of pellets

HS code 230320 covers the waste products generated during the manufacture of sugar, including beet-pulp and bagasse. These by-products are an important part of the sugar industry, as they can be repurposed and utilized in a variety of applications. The efficient management and utilization of these waste streams contribute to the overall sustainability and profitability of the sugar production process.

Production process

Sugar production involves extracting sucrose from sugarcane or sugar beets. The remaining fibrous material, known as bagasse, is a significant by-product. Beet-pulp is another waste stream generated during the extraction of sugar from sugar beets. These waste materials can be dried, compacted, and processed into pellets or other forms for further use.

Production inputs

The primary inputs for the production of HS code 230320 products are the waste streams generated during sugar manufacturing, specifically bagasse and beet-pulp. Additionally, energy sources, such as electricity or fuel, may be required for the drying and pelletizing processes. Machinery and equipment used for processing and compacting the waste materials are also essential inputs.

Production outputs

The main outputs of HS code 230320 are the processed and compacted forms of beet-pulp, bagasse, and other sugar manufacturing waste. These materials can be used as animal feed, fuel for power generation, or as raw materials for the production of 470630 cellulose pulp or 441231 particle board. The efficient utilization of these waste streams contributes to the overall sustainability and circular economy of the sugar industry.
