About hydrogen peroxide; whether or not solidified with urea

HS code 2847 covers the classification of hydrogen peroxide, a widely used chemical compound with diverse industrial and commercial applications. As a powerful oxidizing agent, hydrogen peroxide plays a crucial role in various sectors, including chemical manufacturing, water treatment, healthcare, and personal care products. Its importance within the broader economy stems from its versatility and growing demand across multiple industries.

Production process

Hydrogen peroxide is primarily produced through the anthraquinone process, which involves the catalytic oxidation of 2-ethylanthraquinone with air or oxygen. The resulting hydrogen peroxide is then extracted, purified, and may be further concentrated or stabilized, depending on the intended application.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of hydrogen peroxide include the anthraquinone compound, catalysts, solvents, and energy sources. Additionally, specialized equipment such as reaction vessels, distillation columns, and storage tanks are necessary for the various stages of the manufacturing process.

Production outputs

The primary output of HS code 2847 is hydrogen peroxide, which can be found in various concentrations and forms, including aqueous solutions and solid formulations. Hydrogen peroxide is a versatile chemical that is widely consumed by other industries, such as 2844 Nuclear reactors, boilers, machinery and mechanical appliances; parts thereof, 3402 (Organic surface-active agents (other than soap); surface-active preparations, washing preparations (including auxiliary washing preparations) and cleaning preparations, whether or not containing soap, other than those of heading 3401), and 3808 Insecticides, rodenticides, fungicides, herbicides, anti-sprouting products and plant-growth regulators, disinfectants and similar products.
