Fuel-Grade Denatured Bioethanol from Mexico
Fuel-grade denatured bioethanol is high-purity ethanol from corn or sugarcane, denatured with gasoline or Bitrex for transportation fuel. It is classified under this tariff item because it is denatured to prevent beverage use and is not specially denatured under the Excise Act. The fuel designation places it in the 'other' category of denatured spirits.
