摘要:
An improved method and apparatus for treating particulate material with a liquid additive in a rotatable cylinder involves the use of a pressurized fluid such as steam directed obliquely against the inner wall of the cylinder to effect a cleaning action on the inner wall as the cylinder is rotated and to augment agitation action produced by the rotational movement of the cylinder and gravitational forces acting on the particulate material. Strategically located spray nozzles apply controlled amounts of liquid additive to the particulate material as it is undergoing agitation by the combined effects of the applied forces. The method and apparatus disclosed are particularly suited to the treatment of tobacco with casing materials.

For the moistening of comminuted, more particularly overdried, smoking materials, the requisite quantity of water is applied in at least two spraying sections situated one in succession to the other, in which the water is divided into tiny droplets by means of ultrasonic atomizers. Cooling sections are arranged between the individual spraying sections.

A system for controlling the water content and temperature of tobacco leaves in a humidity controller is provided. Said system comprises means for measuring the water content, temperature and flow rate of the tobacco leaves conveyed to the humidity controller which provides the tobacco leaves with the water content and temperature necessary for rib removal to maintain the quality of the tobacco leaves; operation means for calculating the amount of water and steam to be added upon the basis of the measurements of said measuring means and the preset values representative of the water content and temperature provided to the tobacco leaves and for compensating for the deviation between the spraying position of water and steam and the position of measuring the water content and the temperature of the tobacco leaves which have been provided with water and steam and the time lag of rise up and fall of the water content and temperature when the preset values are changed; and control means for controlling means for supplying the water and steam in response to the values calculated by the operation means and for correcting the deviation between the measurements of the water content and temperature of the tobacco leaves provided with water content and steam and the preset values.
摘要:
A smoking material comprises tobacco homogeneously mixed with a smoke-affecting proportion of distiller's dried grain with solubles. The smoking material of the invention possesses a smoother, flavor-enhanced smoke.

1(7)-p-Menthen-9-al, a novel terpene aldehyde, possesses useful organoleptic properties and develops bitter, herbal and aromatic perfume notes. In the field of flavors, 1(7)-p-menthen-9-al develops flowery, herbal and fatty characters reminiscent of certain aspects of the flavor of nuts or cumin.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for reordering or remoistening tobacco wherein a circulating treating medium is passed through the tobacco bed. The apparatus is provided with both water and steam nozzles, and controls are provided such that the water input maintains a desired tobacco moisture level, whereas the steam input is controlled to keep the temperature of the circulating treating medium at a predetermined level. The water is in the form of an atomized fine mist at point of contact with the tobacco bed.
摘要:
A method for producing tobacco flavors which comprises the steps of hydrolytically degrading into amino acids the proteins of biomass produced by the assimilation of low molecular weight nitrogen compounds from an aqueous tobacco extract, isolating the amino acid mixture and converting that mixture into flavors by the use of reducing sugars and heat. The flavors of this invention may be added to smoking products to improve their aroma and taste.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for steam injection of tobacco bales for use in the opening process. In the apparatus, at least one orificed steam injection plate is brought in flush contact with a tobacco bale that is stationary or in motion and steam is caused to emit from the orifice and is thereby injected into the bale moistening, conditioning and loosening the bonds between the tobacco leaves. In the method, as the tobacco bale is conveyed past the steam injection orifice plate, the plate is moved in flush contact therewith, steam is supplied to the plate and emits therefrom through the orifices to penetrate the tobacco bale. The bale so conditioned is subsequently broken up by a rotating cylinder.
