Products classified under HTS 2710.20.25.00

B5 Kerosene Biodiesel Blend

A kerosene blend containing 5% biodiesel (mono-alkyl esters of fatty acids) by weight and 95% kerosene, used primarily for heating in residential and commercial settings. It falls under HTS 2710.20.25.00 as a petroleum oil preparation with 70% or more petroleum oils where kerosene is the basic constituent and biodiesel is included, excluding jet fuel or motor fuel uses.

Heating Oil Kerosene with Vegetable Biodiesel

Kerosene-type heating oil blended with vegetable-derived biodiesel (at least 2% by volume), suitable for home furnaces and boilers. Classified under HTS 2710.20.25.00 due to its ≥70% kerosene content as the basic constituent with added biodiesel, not for aviation or automotive use.

B20 Kerosene Biodiesel Mix for Industrial Heaters

Industrial-grade kerosene blended with 20% animal fat-derived biodiesel for use in large-scale heaters and process heating. Meets HTS 2710.20.25.00 criteria as a biodiesel-containing kerosene preparation (kerosene ≥70%), explicitly excluding jet fuel or motor applications.

Soy-Based Biodiesel Kerosene Blend

Kerosene fuel with soy-derived biodiesel additive for agricultural heating applications like greenhouse boilers. Falls under HTS 2710.20.25.00 for its high kerosene base (≥70%) with biodiesel, not suitable for jets or vehicles.

Premium Home Heating Kerosene with Microbial Biodiesel

Retail-packed kerosene with microbial fat-derived biodiesel for efficient home heating stoves, meeting clean burn standards. Classified in HTS 2710.20.25.00 as kerosene-based preparation containing biodiesel, excluding motor or jet fuels.

B10 Kerosene Blend for Commercial Boilers

Commercial boiler fuel consisting of 90% kerosene and 10% vegetable biodiesel, optimized for low emissions. HTS 2710.20.25.00 applies as it contains biodiesel with kerosene as the primary constituent (≥70%), not for aviation or automotive.

Waste-Derived Biodiesel Kerosene Heating Fuel
