Vanadium oxides and hydroxides
HS v2022 Code: 282530
About vanadium oxides and hydroxides
HS code 282530 covers vanadium oxides and hydroxides, which are important compounds used in various industrial applications. Vanadium is a transition metal with unique properties that make it valuable in the production of specialty steel, catalysts, and energy storage devices. The global vanadium market is expected to grow steadily in the coming years, driven by increasing demand from the steel and chemical industries.
Production process
Vanadium oxides and hydroxides are typically produced through the processing of vanadium-bearing ores or the recycling of vanadium-containing materials. The main production methods involve roasting, leaching, and chemical precipitation to extract and purify the vanadium compounds. The specific techniques may vary depending on the raw material sources and the desired end-products.
Production inputs
The primary inputs for the production of vanadium oxides and hydroxides include vanadium-bearing ores, such as magnetite, vanadinite, and carnotite. Additionally, vanadium-containing materials, such as spent catalysts, slag, and fly ash, may be used as secondary raw materials. The production process also requires various chemical reagents, energy sources, and specialized equipment for processing and purification.
Production outputs
The main outputs of HS code 282530 are vanadium pentoxide (V2O5), vanadium dioxide (VO2), and vanadium trioxide (V2O3), which are used in a wide range of applications. These vanadium compounds are consumed by industries producing 722410 Flat-rolled products of stainless steel, 854231 Processors and controllers, and 854232 Memories, among others. The vanadium oxides and hydroxides are also used in the production of catalysts, pigments, and energy storage devices.
