201400 Manufacture of other organic basic chemicals

This type 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.

This type includes:

• 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

This type excludes:

• extraction of natural gas, consisting predominantely of methane, see 062000
• manufacture of plastics in primary forms, see 201600
• manufacture of synthetic rubber in primary forms, see 201700
• manufacture of crude glycerol, see 204100
• manufacture of liquid biofuels (e.g. bioethanol fuel), see 205100
• manufacture of natural essential oils, see 205900
• manufacture of salicylic and O-acetylsalicylic acids, see 211000
• manufacture of ethanol from biomass, see 205100
• production of methane for the provision as a gaseous fuel through a permanent supply network, see 352100
