Carbonates; n.e.c. in heading no. 2836 and other than lithium or strontium

HS v2022 Code: 283699

About carbonates; n.e.c. in heading no. 2836 and other than lithium or strontium

HS code 283699 covers a diverse range of carbonates that are not classified elsewhere under heading 2836, excluding lithium and strontium carbonates. These carbonates play a crucial role in various industries, from construction materials to chemical manufacturing, contributing to the broader economy. Their versatility and wide-ranging applications make them an important commodity in international trade.

Production process

The production of carbonates under HS code 283699 typically involves chemical reactions between carbon dioxide and various metal oxides or hydroxides. The specific techniques used depend on the type of carbonate being produced, but generally involve processes such as precipitation, filtration, and drying. Manufacturers may also employ purification and crystallization steps to obtain the desired purity and quality of the final product.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of carbonates under HS code 283699 include carbon dioxide, various metal compounds (such as oxides, hydroxides, or salts), and energy sources for the chemical reactions and processing steps. Depending on the specific carbonate, manufacturers may also require specialized equipment, such as reactors, filters, and drying chambers, as well as skilled labor to operate the production facilities.

Production outputs

The carbonates produced under HS code 283699 have a wide range of applications, including use as fillers, absorbents, and pH regulators in industries such as 282510 Calcium carbonate, 283620 Sodium carbonate, and 283630 Potassium carbonate. These carbonates may also be used as precursors for the production of other chemicals, such as those classified under 284019 Carbides, whether or not chemically defined and 284410 Natural uranium and its compounds; alloys, dispersions, ceramic products and mixtures containing natural uranium or natural uranium compounds.
