Titanium; waste and scrap

HS v2017 Code: 810830

About titanium; waste and scrap

hs code 810830 covers the classification of titanium waste and scrap. Titanium is a versatile and lightweight metal with a wide range of industrial applications, including aerospace, automotive, and medical industries. The recycling and reuse of titanium waste and scrap is an important aspect of the industry, as it helps to conserve natural resources and reduce the environmental impact of titanium production.

Production process

Titanium waste and scrap is typically generated during the manufacturing process of titanium products. This can include offcuts, trimmings, and other production byproducts. The waste and scrap is then collected, sorted, and processed for reuse. Common processing techniques include melting, alloying, and refining to recover the pure titanium metal for use in new products.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the titanium waste and scrap industry include the raw titanium waste and scrap itself, as well as specialized equipment for processing and refining the material. This can include furnaces, casting equipment, and other metalworking machinery. Additionally, the industry may require various chemicals and additives for the refining and alloying processes.

Production outputs

The primary output of the titanium waste and scrap industry is refined titanium metal that can be used in the production of a wide range of products. This includes 810820 Titanium; unwrought, waste and scrap, 810830 Titanium; waste and scrap, and 810840 Titanium; powders, which are all closely related HS codes within the broader titanium industry.
