Includes
This class includes the manufacture of chemicals using basic processes (for example, thermal cracking, distillation). The output of these processes is usually separate chemically defined organic compounds.
- manufacture of basic organic chemicals:
- acyclic hydrocarbons, saturated and unsaturated
- cyclic hydrocarbons, saturated and unsaturated
- acyclic and cyclic alcohols
- mono- and polycarboxylic acids, including acetic acid
- other oxygen-function compounds, including aldehydes, ketones, quinones and dual or poly oxygen-function compounds
- synthetic glycerol
- nitrogen-function organic compounds, including amines
- fermentation of sugar cane, corn or similar to produce alcohol and esters
- other organic compounds, including wood distillation products (e.g. charcoal), etc.
- manufacture of synthetic aromatic products
- manufacture of methane, not for the provision as a gaseous fuel through a permanent supply network
- distillation of coal tar
- manufacture of ethyl alcohol, other than for bioethanol fuel
- manufacture of refrigerant gases
Excludes
- extraction of natural gas, consisting predominantly of methane, see 06.20
- manufacture of plastics in primary forms, see 20.16
- manufacture of synthetic rubber in primary forms, see 20.17
- manufacture of crude glycerol, see 20.41
- manufacture of liquid biofuels (e.g. bioethanol fuel), see 20.51
- manufacture of natural essential oils, see 20.59
- manufacture of salicylic and O-acetylsalicylic acids, see 21.10
- manufacture of ethanol from biomass, see 20.51
- production of methane for the provision as a gaseous fuel through a permanent supply network, see 35.21
