• Manufacture of dyes and pigments from various sources in basic or concentrated form;
• Manufacture of chemical elements;
• Manufacture of inorganic acids except nitrous acid;
• Manufacture of alkali, alkali solutions and other inorganic bases except ammonia;
• Manufacture of other inorganic compounds;
• Manufacture of basic organic chemicals, such as acyclic, saturated and unsaturated hydrocarbons; cyclic, saturated and unsaturated hydrocarbons; acyclic and cyclic alcohols; monocarboxylic and polycarboxylic acids, including acetic acid; other oxygen-containing compounds, including aldehydes, ketones, quinones, and compounds with two or more oxygen-containing functional groups; synthetic glycerol; organic compounds with nitrogen-containing functional groups, including amines; fermentation of sugar cane, corn or the like to produce alcohols and esters; other organic compounds, including wood distillation products (e.g., charcoal), etc.
