Hard Zinc Spelter from Zinc Smelting Residues
Hard zinc spelter is a semi-solid residue primarily containing zinc metal and compounds, obtained from zinc smelting processes. It falls under HTS 2620.11.00.00 as slag or residues (not from iron/steel) containing mainly zinc, used for zinc recovery or chemical compound production. This material is typically lumpy and requires remelting for metal extraction.
Leaded Hard Zinc Spelter Residue
This hard zinc spelter contains mainly zinc with minor lead impurities and arsenic compounds from secondary zinc processing. Classified under HTS 2620.11.00.00 due to its primary zinc content and industrial use in metal recovery or compound manufacturing. It appears as coarse, brittle lumps unsuitable for direct use.
Arsenic-Bearing Hard Zinc Spelter
Residue from zinc electrolysis featuring hard spelter with significant arsenic and zinc compounds, used in industry for arsenic or zinc extraction. HTS 2620.11.00.00 applies as it meets chapter note (b) for arsenic-containing zinc residues not from iron/steel production. Typically exported in bulk for remelting.
Zinc Dross Hard Spelter
Coarse zinc dross collected as hard spelter from galvanizing kettle skimming, mainly zinc oxide and metal. HTS 2620.11.00.00 covers this as zinc slag/residue for industrial metal extraction. Not suitable for direct alloying due to impurities.
Impure Zinc Retort Spelter
Hard spelter from horizontal retort zinc distillation, impure with arsenic and metals, used for recovery. Fits HTS 2620.11.00.00 as mainly zinc-containing residues per legal definitions. Supplied in lumps for remelting.
Skimmed Zinc Galvanizing Spelter
Hard spelter skimmed from molten zinc baths in continuous galvanizing lines, mainly zinc with oxides. HTS 2620.11.00.00 for such industrial residues used in zinc recycling. High volume export product.
