About manganese; articles thereof, including waste and scrap

hs code 8111 covers manganese and articles made from manganese, including waste and scrap. Manganese is a critical industrial metal, essential for the production of steel and other alloys. It plays a vital role in the global economy, supporting industries ranging from construction and transportation to electronics and renewable energy. As a key ingredient in steel manufacturing, the manganese industry is closely tied to the health and growth of the broader industrial sector.

Production process

Manganese is primarily extracted from manganese ore deposits through mining operations. The ore is then processed through a series of crushing, screening, and beneficiation techniques to concentrate the manganese content. Smelting and refining processes are then used to produce various manganese products, including ferromanganese, silicomanganese, and pure manganese metal.

Production inputs

The manganese industry relies on several key inputs, including manganese ore, energy sources (such as electricity and fuel), and specialized equipment for mining, processing, and smelting operations. Access to high-quality manganese deposits is a critical factor, as is the availability of reliable and cost-effective energy supplies. Skilled labor and advanced technologies also play important roles in the efficient production of manganese-based materials.

Production outputs

The primary outputs of the manganese industry include ferromanganese, silicomanganese, and pure manganese metal. These materials are then consumed by a wide range of downstream industries, such as 7207 Steel, 8501 Electric motors, and 8507 Electric accumulators. Manganese is also used in the production of batteries, ceramics, and various chemical compounds.
