Notes
1. This chapter does not cover:
(a). Separate chemically defined elements or compounds with the exception of the
following:
(1). Artificial graphite (heading 3801);
(2). Insecticides, rodenticides, fungicides, herbicides, antisprouting products and
plant-growth regulators, disinfectants and similar products put up as
described in heading 3808;
(3). Products put up as charges for fire-extinquishers or put up in
fire-extinguishing grenades (heading 3813);
(4). Certified reference materials specified in note 2 below;
(5). Products specified in note (3a) or (3c) below.
(b). Mixtures of chemicals with foodstuffs or other substances with nutritive value, of a
kind used in the preparation of human foodstuffs (generally, heading 2106);

of a kind used principally for the recovery of precious metal (heading 7112) or
catalysts consisting of metals or metal alloys in the form of, for example, finely
divided powder or woven gauze (section XIV or XV).
2. (a). For the purposes of heading 3822, the expression "certified reference materials"
means reference materials which are accompanied by a certificate which indicates
the values of the certified properties, the methods used to determine these values
and the degree of certainty associated with each value and which are suitable for
analytical, calibrating or referencing purposes.
(b). With the exception of the products of chapter 28 or 29, for the classifications of
certified reference materials, heading 3822 shall take precedence over any other
heading in the Schedule B.
3. Heading 3824 includes the following goods which are not to be classified in any other
heading of the export schedule:
(a). Cultured crystals (other than optical elements) weighing not less than 2.5 g each, of
magnesium oxide or of the halides of the alkali or alkaline-earth metals;
(b). Fusel oil; Dippel's oil;

4. Throughout the Schedule B, "municipal waste" means waste of a kind collected from
households, hotels, restaurants, hospitals, shops, offices, etc., road and pavement
sweepings, as well as construction and demolition waste. Municipal waste generally
contains a large variety of materials such as plastics, rubber, wood, paper, textiles, glass,
metals, food materials, broken furniture and other damaged or discarded articles. The term
"municipal waste", however, does not cover:
(a). Individual materials or articles segregated from the waste, such as wastes of plastics,
rubber, wood, paper, textiles, glass or metals and spent batteries, which fall in their
appropriate headings of the Schedule B;
(b). Industrial waste;
(c). Waste pharmaceuticals, as defined in note 4(k) to chapter 30; or
(d). Clinical waste, as defined in note 6(a) below.
5. For the purposes of heading 3825, "sewage sludge" means sludge arising from urban
effluent treatment plants and includes pre-treatment waste, scouring and unstabilized
sludge. Stabilized sludge, when suitable for use as fertilizer, is excluded (chapter 31).
6. For the purposes of heading 3825, the expression "other wastes" applies to:
(a). Clinical waste, that is, contaminated waste arising from medical research, diagnosis,
treatment or other medical, surgical, dental or veterinary procedures, which often
contain pathogens and pharmaceutical substances and require special disposal
procedures (for example, soiled dressings, used gloves and used syringes);
(b). Waste organic solvents;
(c). Wastes of metal pickling liquors, hydraulic fluids, brake fluids and anti-freezing
fluids; and
(d). Other wastes from chemical or allied industries.
The expression "other wastes" does not, however, cover wastes which contain mainly
petroleum oils or oils obtained from bituminous minerals (heading 2710).
