Manufacture of liquid biofuels
What this code covers
Use this class for manufacture of liquid biofuels when the main activity includes Manufacture of biodiesel and Manufacture of ethanol from biomass. Check exclusions and nearby codes before applying it to a mixed activity.
Official NACE Rev. 2.1 labels and explanatory notes are imported from the source dataset. Plain-language explanations are shown separately so readers can compare interpretation with the source text.
No child codes; this is a class-level code.
- manufacture of biodiesel
- manufacture of ethanol from biomass
- manufacture of mixtures of bioethanol and ethers partially derived from biomass
- manufacture of liquid biofuels even if processes use waste as an input
- manufacture of solid fuels from vegetable biomass, see 16.26
- manufacture of ethyl alcohol other than for bioethanol biofuels, see 20.14
- manufacture of explosives, see 20.59
- Compare with 16.26, 20.14, 20.59 when the main activity overlaps another code.
- Review the Rev. 2 to Rev. 2.1 mapping type before migrating old records.
- Check national equivalent caveats before using this code for local registration or filing workflows.
- If the main revenue activity appears in an exclusion, compare the alternative code before deciding.

Rev. 2 code 20.14 can map to more than one Rev. 2.1 class: 20.14 Manufacture of other organic basic chemicals, 20.51 Manufacture of liquid biofuels.
Official close match imported from NACE Rev. 2.1.
Datasets, CRM segments, KYC rules, reporting logic, and historical joins may need review because the activity scope is not a simple unchanged carry-over.
Review the official explanatory notes for each target code and confirm whether the business activity still fits the suggested Rev. 2.1 class.
Rev. 2 code 20.59 can map to more than one Rev. 2.1 class: 20.51 Manufacture of liquid biofuels, 20.59 Manufacture of other chemical products n.e.c..
