ABSTRACT:
Tobacco material is extracted with an extraction solvent to provide a aqueous extract and a tobacco portion insoluble in the solvent. The extract is separated from the insoluble portion and is provided within the water at a concentration at least about 30 percent, based on the weight of the extract and solvent. The extract and solvent are subjected to temperature treatment including reducing the temperature of the extract and solvent from a first temperature to a second temperature. Potassium nitrate crystals form as a precipitate and are separated from the extract and solvent. Then, the extract and solvent are contacted with activated carbon particles and separated therefrom.
