Where 20.14 sits

  1. C Manufacturing
  2. 20 Manufacture of chemicals and chemical products
  3. 20.1 Manufacture of basic chemicals, fertilisers and nitrogen compounds, plastics and synthetic rubber in primary forms
  4. 20.14 Manufacture of other organic basic chemicals

What 20.14 includes

  • This class includes the manufacture of chemicals using basic processes (for example, thermal cracking, distillation). The output of these processes is usually separate chemically defined organic compounds.
  • Manufacture of basic organic chemicals: • acyclic hydrocarbons, saturated and unsaturated • cyclic hydrocarbons, saturated and unsaturated • acyclic and cyclic alcohols • mono
  • And polycarboxylic acids, including acetic acid • other oxygen-function compounds, including aldehydes, ketones, quinones and dual or poly oxygen-function compounds • synthetic glycerol • nitrogen-function organic compounds, including amines • fermentation of sugar cane, corn or similar to produce alcohol and esters • other organic compounds, including wood distillation products (e.g. charcoal), etc.
  • Manufacture of synthetic aromatic products
  • Manufacture of methane, not for the provision as a gaseous fuel through a permanent supply network
  • Distillation of coal tar
  • Manufacture of ethyl alcohol, other than for bioethanol fuel
  • Manufacture of refrigerant gases
