The invention discloses a method for reducing
tar of cigarette products. The method includes the steps: firstly,
slicing flue-cured tobacco laminas, absorbing
moisture, regaining the
moisture, loosening the
flue-cured tobacco laminas, regaining the
moisture, blowing atomized water into the
flue-cured tobacco laminas, baking the flue-cured tobacco laminas and blowing atomized water into the flue-cured tobacco laminas again; secondly, shredding the flue-cured tobacco laminas, and then
drying, perfuming and rolling shreds. After tobacco leaves are repeatedly baked and regain the moisture, substances in blades and liquid can be promoted in
browning reaction and
sugar caramelization while unpleasant
odor of the tobacco leaves is removed, so that flavoring substances are generated, inherent fragrance of the tobacco leaves diffuses, the content of chemical components of flue-cured tobaccos is changed, the
nicotine content of the flue-cured tobaccos is reduced, the
potassium-
chlorine ratio of the flue-cured tobaccos is increased,
combustibility of the flue-cured tobaccos is improved, and the
tar release amount of the flue-cured tobaccos can be reduced. Compared with an existing process, the method has the
advantage that indexes such as
reducing sugar,
nicotine,
chlorine,
potassium and
total nitrogen are consistently changed. The
combustibility of the tobacco leaves is enhanced, so that the
tar release amount of cigarettes can be controlled. The
tar yield of the cigarettes is reduced, the
nicotine and
carbon monoxide are reduced to varying degrees, and harm of the cigarettes to a
human body can be remarkably decreased.
