Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If containing mainly aluminum oxides processed
Oxides of aluminum in finished form are Chapter 28, not raw residues.
If electrical industry waste residues
End-use in electronics shifts some residues to Chapter 85 waste.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Provide process flow documentation proving non-municipal, industrial residue status
• Test for hazardous levels; declare under proper waste codes alongside HTS
• Avoid reclassification by specifying extraction intent, not disposal
