Residual products of chemical or allied industries, not elsewhere specified or included; wastes of metal pickling liquors, hydraulic fluids, brake fluids and anti-freeze fluids

HS v2017 Code: 382550

About residual products of chemical or allied industries, not elsewhere specified or included; wastes of metal pickling liquors, hydraulic fluids, brake fluids and anti-freeze fluids

HS code 382550 covers a diverse range of residual products and waste materials from the chemical and allied industries. These materials are not classified elsewhere and may include items such as metal pickling liquors, hydraulic fluids, brake fluids, and anti-freeze fluids. This industry plays a crucial role in the broader economy by providing a means of managing and repurposing waste streams that would otherwise pose environmental and logistical challenges. The proper handling and disposal of these materials is essential for maintaining sustainable industrial practices.

Production process

The production techniques for the items covered under HS code 382550 can vary widely depending on the specific material. In general, the processes may involve collection, sorting, and treatment of the waste streams to prepare them for further processing or disposal. This can include filtration, distillation, or other separation methods to extract usable components or to prepare the materials for safe disposal. The goal is to minimize the environmental impact of these residual products while also recovering any valuable materials that can be reused or recycled.

Production inputs

The main inputs for the industries covered under HS code 382550 are the various waste streams and residual products generated by other chemical and industrial processes. This can include spent pickling liquors from metal processing, used hydraulic fluids, brake fluids, and anti-freeze fluids from automotive and machinery maintenance. The collection and processing of these materials requires specialized equipment, such as storage tanks, filtration systems, and distillation units. Additionally, the industry relies on skilled labor to handle the materials safely and efficiently.

Production outputs

The outputs from the industries covered under HS code 382550 can include a range of repurposed or recycled materials. This may include recovered metals, solvents, or other valuable components that can be reused in other industrial processes. The industry also produces waste streams that require proper disposal, such as contaminated liquids or sludges. These outputs may be consumed by other industries, such as 280110 Hydrogen, 281511 (Sodium hydroxide (caustic soda)), or 382490 Chemical products and preparations of the chemical or allied industries, not elsewhere specified or included.
