Definitions
- This invention pertains to the field of smoking materials. More particularly, the present invention concerns a method for preparing a smoking material with leaf lamina, strip or other tobacco components, or with reconstituted tobacco having tobacco dust or fines incorporated therein.
- tobacco fines or dust is generally formed.
- This dust generally less than about one centimeter in size, is . recovered from air filters, tobacco screens and other separating systems.
- tobacco fines or dust have commonly been discarded or employed in conjunction with other tobacco by-products, such as stems, stalks and leaf scraps resulting from the stripping of leaf tobacco, in the preparation of reconstituted tobacco material.
- One process for making reconstituted tobacco sheets involves casting or forming a paste or slurry of refined tobacco by-products, including dust, onto a moving belt.
- the employment of very fine tobacco particles is feasible inasmuch as these tobacco dust particles are simply retained on the moving belt, present no manufacturing difficulties and are not lost during the sheet fprmation. This is not, however, true in a paper-making type process for the preparation of reconstituted tobacco.
- the tobacco dust when employing a paper- making process for preparing reconstituted tobacco, the tobacco dust must generally be discarded or employed elsewhere. This is due to the fact that in the paper- making process, the slurry of refined tobacco by-products is cast from a head box onto a wire screen for forming the desired sheet. If the screen mesh size is too large, the dust particles simply pass through the wire screen and do not, as a result, become incorporated in the resulting sheet. Conversely, when the screen mesh size is reduced so as to prevent the tobacco dust particles from passing therethrough, the dust considerably slows the drainage of the water through the screen and correspondingly slows the rate of sheet formation by actually plugging and/or clogging the wire screen openings.
- the paper-making type process for making reconstituted tobacco material has many advantages over the alternative casting/moving belt method, particularly,in that a binder is not required to hold'the fibers together and a significant amount of solubles can be removed from the tobacco material to be treated separately and later reincorporated in the resulting sheet, and is consequently the preferred method, it nevertheless does suffer from the disadvantage of not being able to efficiently and conveniently employ tobacco dust by-product.
- a binder is not required to hold'the fibers together and a significant amount of solubles can be removed from the tobacco material to be treated separately and later reincorporated in the resulting sheet, and is consequently the preferred method
- it does suffer from the disadvantage of not being able to efficiently and conveniently employ tobacco dust by-product.
- larger amounts of dust is generated than in the past. Reconstitution processes are no longer able to assimilate all of the dust and the alternative of discarding as waste is not attractive.
- the present invention presents a way of incorporating this material into a smoking product with a minimum of added equipment, which avoids substantially all of the above-noted disadvantages associated with a paper-making type of process in the preparation of reconstituted tobacco containing tobacco dust.
- tobacco dust is dispersed in an aqueous liquid medium and applied to tobacco or reconstituted tobacco.
- a mixture of the fines or dust with an aqueous medium may be treated to form a uniform dispersion, for example by homogenizing.
- the medium may contain dissolved solids, which may assist in retaining the fines or dust on the tobacco or reconstituted product.
- Such solids may comprise, for example, those substances conventionally present in tobacco 'casing', extracts of tobacco solubles, or gums.
- the fines or dust is mixed with casing, which may be processed through a homogenizer to reduce the larger particles, in order that the product will be accepted by whatever applicator is used to put the casing on tobacco strip or filler, usually. a spray head.
- the fines or dust may be ground prior to mixing with the casing.
- the dried, reordered product is not sticky and generally is no more dusty than the same strip or filler without added fines.
- Casing applied to tobacco strip or cut filler is essentially a liquid and is handled as such in conveying and in applying,
- spray application is the conventional means.
- the present invention contemplates combining tobacco fines with casing or water and homogenizing the combination into a slurry in order that the product can be handled with the casing applicator already in use (usually a spray system).
- the dust may be ground before being combined with the casing or water and subsequently dispersed into a slurry.
- High shear rate dispersion is preferable such that the dust and liquid combination is placed in turbulence during mixing.
- the particles for this purpose must preferably be no larger than about 500 microns, and more preferably less than 100 microns in diameter.
- slurry viscosity as measured on a Haake viscometer should be no greater than three hundred centipoise measured at about 180°F and a shear rate of about 600 (1/sec).
- Some viscosities in the examples herein were measured at a lower shear rate of about 24 (1/sec) at about 180°F on a Brookfield Model RVT viscometer and are appropriately designated.
- tobacco dust is added to liquid at a proportion of up to two pounds of dust per gallon liquid. Satisfactory results have been obtained with between one tenth. to five pounds of added dust per gallon of liquid.
- the invention is not limited to these proportions.
- a portion of the dust Upon combination of the tobacco dust with the casing, water or other appropriate aqueous liquid, a portion of the dust will dissolve and a portion will remain dispersed as particulate solids. Thus, the combination of the dust and the liquid produces both a solution and a suspension or dispersion. Subsequent homogenization of the combination to evenly distribute the solids, and in some methods according to the present invention to also reduce the size of the solid tobacco particles, results in a product referred to herewithin as a homogeneous mixture.
- This homogeneous mixture is typically between fourteen and fifty percent solids.
- the slurry is applied to the tobacco at a rate of preferably between about one and nine gallons slurry per one hundred pounds tobacco with a preferable dust addition of between one and ten weight percent.
- satisfactory bulks have been obtained with an application rate of from about one tenth to about thirty gallons per one hundred pounds tobacco with a dust addition of about one tenth to about thirty weight percent.
- the invention is not limited to these rates and any rate may be used.
- the -process becomes less economical and at high application rates the adhesion of the slurry may be less complete.
- the result is that when the casing composition is applied to strip or filler, and the cased product dried and further processed, the dusting problem is no greater than had the tobacco dust not been added.
- a further finding is that the dust particles are so reduced in size that they are not noticeable on the tobacco.
- material which might otherwise be wasted is utilized in smoking product without addition of any new non-tobacco ingredient, and without visible change to the product.
- Filler in the sense used here is intended to embrace rolled cut stem, expanded or not, expanded shreds, and like filler ingredients.
- a natural or synthetic gum may be added to the casing provided that it is soluble in the latter. This may increase the viscosity and also improve the binding effect of the casing for the fine tobacco particles.
- the invention provides a method for economically utilizing tobacco dust by-products in a paper-making type process for making reconstituted tobacco.
- This method not only reduces the loss of the dust through the wire screen when the screen openings are too large and further more reduces clogging and/or plugging 6 f the screen openings when these openings are too small, but additionally, the method of the present invention actually increases the rate of drainage through the wire screen correspondingly increasing the rate of production of the reconstituted tobacco sheet and improving its quality by allowing better refining of the remaining tobacco stem feedstock.
- the present invention is directed to a method for employing tobacco dust in the preparation of reconstituted tobacco which comprises admixing tobacco dust with the extract liquor which has been concentrated in steam evaporators after recovery from extraction presses.
- the mixture is then passed through a homogenizer or mixer to refine and uniformly disperse the particles in the concentrated extract.
- the viscous product is applied to the reconstituted tobacco web which has been removed from the Fourdrinier wire, and the coated web is then dried in the usual fashion.
- Final cutting, shredding,and blending into cigarette filler or the like is conventional.
- the method for utilizing tobacco dust in the preparation of reconstituted tobacco employing a paper- making process calls for certain modifications in the usual process.
- Tobacco dust by-product material is first collected. It may be used totally apart from the Fourdrinier feedstock, or a portion may be sent with the stems while the remainder is kept for the coating preparation. This separated fines fraction is blended with concentrated extract as will be described below.
- the said feedstock is diluted with 500 to 700 parts of water per 100 parts of solids and is passed into refiners which beat the stems to form a smooth, well-blended fiber slurry.
- the stock from the press is diluted with white-water from the Fourdrinier to a consistency which is suitable for application to the wire at the headbox of the Fourdrinier. That part of the process is conventional in the extract-recombine papermaking reconstitution process.
- the concentrated extract is blended with the separated dust fraction in preparation of a coating for reapplication, by any of the following alternatives:
- the coating is applied to the formed moving tobacco web ahead of the dryers, at or near the point where the sizing press is located in the basic process.
- the application may be by a roll coater, reverse roll coater, blade coater, high-pressure spray, or any similar means for applying viscous liquid to a running web.
- the reconstituted tobacco sheet is not sticky and does .not shed dust before, during, or after cutting, to any greater degree than the conventional reconstitued product.
- the maximum acceptable particle size in the coating depends on both adherence of the particle to the web and aesthetics of the coated web. Particles of 1000 microns and larger will adhere. However, particles this large give the coated web a sandpaper like texture and appearance. A smaller particle size gives a corresponding smoother appearance closer to that of leaf.
- the fines may be dispersed in water in place of extract and applied for one of the three alternative'treatments described.
- the addition of a gum to the water is optional.
- cylinder volume is a measure of the relative filling power of tobacco or reconstituted tobacco for making smoking products. Higher cylinder volume means higher filling power, or capacity to make more satisfactory cigarettes with a given unit weight.
- tobacco volatiles describes a measure of the approximate moisture content (or percentage of moisture) in tobacco or reconstituted tobacco. As used throughout this specification, the values employed to characterize tobacco or reconstituted tobacco, in connection with these terms, are determined as follows:
- Tobacco or reconstituted tobacco filler weighing 10.000 g is placed in a 3.358-cm diameter cylinder and compressed by a 1875-g piston 3.335 cm in diameter for five minutes. The resulting volume of filler is reported as cylinder volume. This test is carried out at standard environmental conditions of 24°C and 60% RH; conventionally unless otherwise stated, the sample is preconditioned in this environment for 18 hours.
- the sample of tobacco or reconstituted tobacco is weighed before and after exposure for 3 hours in a circulating air oven controlled at 100°C (212°F).
- the weight loss as percentage of initial weight is the oven-volatiles content.
- the OV after equilibration has significance in comparing properties of smoking materials at the same conditions. Materials are,generally, equilibrated (reordered) at conditions which are well known in the trade.
- Equilibrating is preferably done at standard conditions, which generally involve maintaining the tobacco at a temperature of 24°C (75°F) and 60% RH (relative humidity) for at least 18 hours.
- Hot-Water Solubles HWS
- “Longs” are defined as filler particles held back by 1.91 mm (0.075-inch) screen openings. “Mediums” are particles which are held back by 0.86 mm (0.034-inch) screen openings. “Shorts” are held back by 0.51 mm (0.020-inch) openings. “Smalls” are held back by 0.28 mm (0.011-inch) openings. “Fines” pass through that screen.
- Test smoking by machine was done according to the FTC method as described by Pillsbury et al., J. Assoc. Offic. Anal. Chemists 52: 458-462 (1969).
