Products classified under HTS 2710.20.10.05
Ultra-Low Sulfur No. 2 Fuel Oil (15 ppm S)
This is a light distillate fuel oil classified under HTS 2710.20.10.05 due to its API gravity of 25 degrees or more, Saybolt Universal viscosity under 45 seconds at 37.8°C, and sulfur content not exceeding 15 ppm. It contains biodiesel as a basic constituent (70%+ petroleum oils) and is used primarily for heating and diesel engine applications in residential and commercial settings. The low sulfur meets stringent environmental regulations for reduced emissions.
B20 Biodiesel Blend No. 2 Diesel Fuel (15 ppm S)
A blended No. 2 fuel oil with 20% biodiesel and 80% ultra-low sulfur petroleum distillate, meeting HTS 2710.20.10.05 criteria for light fuel oils (API ≥25°, viscosity <45 sec, ≤15 ppm S). Designed for on-road diesel engines, it complies with EPA low-sulfur mandates while incorporating renewable biodiesel. The petroleum oils exceed 70% by weight as the basic constituent.
Low-Sulfur Home Heating Oil No. 2 (15 ppm S with Biodiesel)
No. 2 distillate heating oil blended with biodiesel, featuring ≤15 ppm sulfur, API gravity ≥25°, and viscosity <45 Saybolt seconds, fitting HTS 2710.20.10.05. Used in residential boilers and furnaces, it supports ultra-low sulfur regulations for cleaner combustion. Over 70% petroleum distillates qualify it as a basic oil preparation.
No. 3 Light Fuel Oil Ultra-Low Sulfur Biodiesel Blend
A No. 3 light residual-distillate blend fuel oil with biodiesel, ≤15 ppm sulfur, meeting viscosity <45 sec and API ≥25° for HTS 2710.20.10.05. Suitable for industrial burners and smaller commercial heating systems requiring low-emission fuels. Petroleum oils dominate at >70% by weight.
15 ppm Sulfur No. 2-GT Gas Turbine Fuel Oil (Biodiesel)
Specialty No. 2 fuel oil for gas turbines with biodiesel blend, ultra-low 15 ppm sulfur, API 25+°, and low viscosity per HTS 2710.20.10.05 specs. Optimized for power generation with minimal SOx emissions. Contains ≥70% petroleum distillates as base.
B5 Biodiesel No. 2 Heating Oil (Ultra-Low Sulfur)
Minimal 5% biodiesel blended into No. 2 ultra-low sulfur diesel/heating oil (≤15 ppm S, <45 sec viscosity, API ≥25°), classified HTS 2710.20.10.05. Ideal for transitional low-emission heating in cold climates. Petroleum base exceeds 70% weight.
Marine Distillate Fuel Oil MGO 15 ppm Sulfur (Biodiesel Blend)
Marine gas oil (MGO) No. 2 equivalent with biodiesel, ≤15 ppm sulfur for IMO-compliant vessels, API ≥25°, viscosity <45 sec under HTS 2710.20.10.05. Used in auxiliary engines in emission control areas (ECAs). >70% petroleum oils.
Industrial Boiler No. 2 Fuel Oil 15 ppm S (Bio-Enhanced)
Bio-enhanced No. 2 fuel for industrial boilers, 15 ppm max sulfur, light viscosity and high API per HTS 2710.20.10.05, with biodiesel constituent. Reduces stack emissions in manufacturing plants. Petroleum oils form the 70%+ base.
