Petroleum coke, petroleum bitumen; other residues of petroleum oils or oils obtained from bituminous minerals
In plain English
This category covers petroleum coke, petroleum bitumen, and other leftover materials from petroleum oils or oils derived from bituminous minerals. The specific items are separated based on their type and processing state. Petroleum coke is divided into non-calcined and calcined forms, while petroleum bitumen stands as its own distinct group. Any other residues from these oil sources fall into the final remaining category.
