Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If sold as sealed lead-acid battery scrap
Intact or semi-intact batteries/scrap are classified under electrical machinery Chapter 85, not residues.
If mainly antimony instead of copper statistical
Same subheading but different statistical suffix for antimony content residues.
If residual wastes from chemical processing
Sewage/treatment residues may shift to 3825 if not fitting slag/ash industrial definitions.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Submit recycling process affidavits to demonstrate industrial extraction purpose
• Label with precise copper content per assay; mismatches lead to customs holds
• Segregate from hazardous waste streams to maintain 2620 classification

Copper-Bearing Lead Slag from Smelting
This is slag residue generated during lead smelting processes, containing primarily lead with significant copper content and arsenic compounds. It falls under HTS 2620.29.0010 as it is 'other' slag (not from iron/steel) containing mainly lead, reported under copper content per statistical notes. Used industrially for metal recovery.
Arsenic-Lead Smelter Ash with Copper
Ash byproduct from non-ferrous lead smelters, rich in lead, arsenic, and copper metals/compounds, used for chemical compound production. Classified in HTS 2620.29.0010 due to main lead content and copper statistical reporting, fitting chapter note (b) for arsenic-bearing residues.
Copper-Enriched Lead Dross from Refining
Dross skimmed during lead refining, containing mainly lead with elevated copper and arsenic, for recovery operations. Fits HTS 2620.29.0010 as non-iron/steel residue with lead as primary metal and copper content tracked.
Arsenical Lead Flue Dust with Copper
Flue dust captured from lead smelting exhausts, predominantly lead and arsenic with copper particulates, for metal extraction. Classified under HTS 2620.29.0010 per chapter notes for arsenic-containing industrial residues, copper content specified.
Secondary Lead Smelter Skim with Copper Impurities
Skim from secondary (recycled) lead smelters, mainly lead with copper and arsenic compounds, used in industry. HTS 2620.29.0010 covers this as other residues containing mainly lead, copper content for stats.
