Residues of starch manufacture, similar residues; beet-pulp, bagasse and other waste of sugar manufacture, brewing or distilling dregs and waste, whether or not in the form of pellets
HS v2022 Code: 2303
About residues of starch manufacture, similar residues; beet-pulp, bagasse and other waste of sugar manufacture, brewing or distilling dregs and waste, whether or not in the form of pellets
HS code 2303 covers a diverse range of residues and waste products generated from various industrial processes, primarily related to the manufacture of starch, sugar, and alcoholic beverages. These byproducts, though often overlooked, play a crucial role in the broader economy, finding applications in industries such as animal feed, biofuel production, and even as raw materials for further processing.
Production process
The production of the materials covered under HS code 2303 typically involves the separation and collection of residues and waste generated during the manufacturing of starch, sugar, and alcoholic beverages. For example, the production of starch often results in the creation of residues, which are then dried, pelletized, or further processed to be used as animal feed or in other applications. Similarly, the production of sugar from sugar beets or sugarcane generates bagasse, a fibrous byproduct that can be used as a fuel source or in the manufacture of various products.
Production inputs
The main inputs required for the industries covered under HS code 2303 include the raw materials used in the primary manufacturing processes, such as corn, wheat, or potatoes for starch production, and sugar beets or sugarcane for sugar manufacturing. Additionally, the production of these residues and waste products requires various processing equipment, such as drying, pelletizing, or separation machinery, as well as energy sources and labor.
Production outputs
The primary outputs of the industries covered under HS code 2303 are the various residues, waste, and byproducts generated during the manufacturing of starch, sugar, and alcoholic beverages. These outputs can be further processed or utilized in a variety of applications, such as 2309 Preparations used in animal feeding, 4101 (Raw hides and skins of bovine (including buffalo) or equine animals (fresh, or salted, dried, limed, pickled or otherwise preserved, but not tanned, parchment-dressed or further prepared), whether or not dehaired or split), and 2701 Coal; briquettes, ovoids and similar solid fuels manufactured from coal.
