ABSTRACT:
A process for impregnating tobacco with carbon dioxide is provided. The process comprises: (a) contacting tobacco with carbon dioxide gas at relatively low pressure (b) rapidly cooling the tobacco-carbon dioxide system until the carbon dioxide condenses as liquid or solid within the tobacco and finally solidifies, and (c) releasing the pressure in the cooled system. Thereafter, the carbon dioxide-treated tobacco may be expanded conventionally, such as by subjecting it to heating conditions effective to liberate the carbon dioxide therein.
