Coal; (other than anthracite and bituminous), whether or not pulverised but not agglomerated

HS v2022 Code: 270119

About coal; (other than anthracite and bituminous), whether or not pulverised but not agglomerated

HS code 270119 covers a broad range of coal types, excluding anthracite and bituminous coal. This non-agglomerated coal is an essential energy source, powering industries and generating electricity across the globe. As a widely traded commodity, the production and trade of this coal variety play a significant role in the global energy landscape and economy.

Production process

The production of coal covered under HS code 270119 typically involves mining, extraction, and processing techniques. Coal is extracted from surface or underground mines, then crushed, screened, and sorted to meet specific size and quality requirements. Depending on the end-use, the coal may undergo further processing, such as washing or drying, to remove impurities and improve its energy content.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of coal under HS code 270119 include the raw coal deposits, mining equipment and machinery, transportation infrastructure, and energy sources to power the extraction and processing operations. Additionally, labor, technology, and environmental compliance measures are crucial inputs for this industry.

Production outputs

The primary output of HS code 270119 is the non-agglomerated coal, which is then consumed by various industries, including 271112 Natural gas, liquefied, 271111 Natural gas, liquefied, and 271320 Lignite, whether or not pulverised, but not agglomerated. This coal is used for power generation, industrial processes, and residential heating, among other applications.
