HS v2022 Code: 284290

About salts; of inorganic acids or peroxoacids, other than double or complex silicates, including aluminosilicates, whether or not chemically, excluding azides

HS code 284290 covers a diverse range of inorganic salts that have a wide variety of industrial and commercial applications. These salts are essential building blocks for many chemical processes and products, making them a crucial component of the global chemical industry. They are used in the production of fertilizers, pharmaceuticals, water treatment, and numerous other industries, underscoring their importance in the broader economy.

Production process

The production of salts under HS code 284290 typically involves the reaction of an inorganic acid with a base, such as a metal hydroxide or carbonate. This process results in the formation of the desired salt, which is then purified and crystallized. Depending on the specific salt, various techniques may be employed, including evaporation, precipitation, and ion exchange. The final product is then packaged and distributed for use in various applications.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of salts under HS code 284290 include inorganic acids, such as sulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid, or nitric acid, as well as various metal hydroxides or carbonates. Additionally, specialized equipment, such as reactors, filtration systems, and drying equipment, are necessary for the production process. Energy sources, such as electricity or steam, are also important inputs for the manufacturing of these salts.

Production outputs

The salts produced under HS code 284290 have a wide range of applications, including the production of 310000 Fertilizers, 300000 Pharmaceutical products, and 282000 Inorganic chemicals. These salts may also be used in water treatment, as well as in the production of various other chemical products. The specific end-use of the salts will depend on their chemical composition and properties.
