Slag, ash and residues; (not from the manufacture of iron or steel), containing mainly lead; excluding leaded gasoline sludges and leaded anti-knock compound sludges

HS v2017 Code: 262029

About slag, ash and residues; (not from the manufacture of iron or steel), containing mainly lead; excluding leaded gasoline sludges and leaded anti-knock compound sludges

HS code 262029 covers a specific type of slag, ash, and residues that contain mainly lead. These materials are generated from various industrial processes, excluding those related to the manufacture of iron or steel. This industry plays a crucial role in the broader economy, as it helps manage and recycle waste materials that would otherwise pose environmental and health hazards. The proper handling and processing of these lead-containing residues are essential for sustainable industrial practices and environmental protection.

Production process

The main production techniques involved in this industry include collection, sorting, and processing of the lead-containing slag, ash, and residues. These materials are typically gathered from various industrial facilities, then sorted and processed to extract the lead and other valuable components. The processing may involve techniques such as smelting, chemical extraction, or other specialized methods to separate the lead from the other materials.

Production inputs

The key inputs required for this industry include the lead-containing slag, ash, and residues generated by various industrial processes. Additionally, the industry relies on specialized equipment and machinery for the collection, sorting, and processing of these materials. Energy sources, such as electricity or fuel, are also necessary for the various processing steps involved.

Production outputs

The main outputs of this industry are the recovered lead and other valuable materials extracted from the slag, ash, and residues. These outputs can be used as raw materials for 800120 Lead, unwrought production or other industrial applications. The industry also generates waste streams that may require further processing or disposal, depending on their composition and environmental regulations.
