Products classified under HTS 2704.00.00.50
Metallurgical Coke
Metallurgical coke is a high-carbon fuel produced by heating coking coal in the absence of air, used primarily in blast furnaces for iron production. It falls under HTS 2704.00.00.50 as coke of coal, not agglomerated, and classified as 'other' since it is not specified elsewhere in the heading.
Foundry Coke
Foundry coke is a porous, low-ash coke derived from coal, ideal for cupola furnaces in metal casting operations. Classified under HTS 2704.00.00.50 as 'other' coal coke, whether or not agglomerated, due to its production process and fuel application.
Lignite Coke
Lignite coke, or brown coal coke, is produced by carbonizing lignite, used as a low-cost fuel in power generation and industrial heating. It is covered by HTS 2704.00.00.50 as coke or semicoke of lignite, in the 'other' category.
Peat Coke
Peat coke is obtained by heating peat in retorts, serving as an eco-fuel for heating and gasification plants. HTS 2704.00.00.50 includes it as coke or semicoke of peat, categorized under 'other'.
Retort Carbon
Retort carbon is a high-purity carbon produced in retorts from coal or peat, used in electrode manufacturing and chemical processes. It qualifies under HTS 2704.00.00.50 as 'retort carbon' in the 'other' category.
Coal Semicoke
Coal semicoke is a partially carbonized coal product with higher volatiles than full coke, used in cement kilns and boilers. It is included in HTS 2704.00.00.50 as semicoke of coal, under 'other'.
Briquetted Metallurgical Coke
Briquetted metallurgical coke is agglomerated coal coke formed into uniform lumps for consistent blast furnace feed. HTS 2704.00.00.50 covers it as agglomerated coke of coal in the 'other' subcategory.
Gas Works Coke
Gas works coke is a byproduct from coal gasification in gas production, used as a heating fuel. It fits HTS 2704.00.00.50 as other coke of coal from retort processes.
Coke Breeze
Coke breeze consists of small particles under 25mm from coke screening, used in sinter plants and lime kilns. Though sometimes specified separately, general 'other' coke under 2704.00.00.50 applies for certain fines.
Peat Semicoke Briquettes
Peat semicoke briquettes are agglomerated partial carbon from peat, sold for residential heating stoves. HTS 2704.00.00.50 encompasses agglomerated semicoke of peat as 'other'.
Industrial Retort Carbon
Industrial retort carbon is specialized high-fixed-carbon material from coal retorts for silicon carbide production. Covered by HTS 2704.00.00.50 explicitly as retort carbon, 'other'.
Lignite Charcoal Substitute
Lignite charcoal substitute is carbonized lignite marketed as charcoal alternative for barbecues. HTS 2704.00.00.50 applies as lignite coke, distinct from wood charcoal.
Agglomerated Peat Coke
Agglomerated peat coke is pressed peat carbon lumps for industrial boilers. Included in HTS 2704.00.00.50 as agglomerated coke or semicoke of peat, 'other'.
Battery Coke
Battery coke is uniform low-volatile coke for aluminum smelting anodes, from coal coking. HTS 2704.00.00.50 as other coal coke for industrial use.
Semicoke Pellets
Semicoke pellets are extruded coal semicoke for easy-handling in power plants. Classified under HTS 2704.00.00.50 as agglomerated semicoke of coal, 'other'.
