A method of making shredded tobacco by bonding tobacco stems with starch glue

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for producing shredded tobacco by using starch glue to bond tobacco stems. The technical scheme is: (A) soaking the ultrafinely pulverized tobacco stems in methanol for 6 h to 12 h, filtering, drying the residue to obtain a filter residue, and drying the filtrate to obtain an extract. (B) preparing 3%-8% starch diluent, adding 10%-20% filter residue by mass fraction, and adding 1%-2% glycerin plasticizer to obtain a premix. (C) Homogenize the premix, and gelatinize it at 80°C to 90°C for 40 to 60 minutes to obtain a premix. (D) The premixed rubber is cast into a film, and dried at 30° C. to 50° C. to obtain reconstituted tobacco leaves. (E) The reconstituted tobacco leaves are cut into cut tobacco to obtain the original cut tobacco. (F) The extract is dissolved in ethanol and sprayed back to the initial cut tobacco, and dried to obtain the cut tobacco made from starch glue-bonded tobacco stems. The invention utilizes starch gelatinized into glue and pulverized tobacco stems to make cut tobacco, which has the advantages of low cost, simple operation, safety and environmental protection, and the formed cut tobacco has no peculiar smell.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for making shredded tobacco by using composite starch glue to bond crushed waste tobacco stems. It is characterized in that the raw material cost is low, the smoke taste is pure, and it can be applied to the production of shredded tobacco. It belongs to the field of light industry. Background technique [0002] In the traditional shredded tobacco production process, the tobacco stems are discarded after processing and initial roasting, and the stems and leaves are separated, resulting in waste and environmental burden. Businesses add some tobacco stems to reduce costs, but the amount of cut stems should not be too large, otherwise the quality of the tobacco will decline. In the middle of the last century, some foreign tobacco companies tried to recycle tobacco stems, using three processes: rolling method, thick pulp method, and papermaking method, but the operation method was complicated and the composition of cut to...
