Abstract: A method for producing a flavor component adsorbent, said method comprising: heating a tobacco material to vaporize a flavor component from the tobacco material; passing a gas containing the flavor component through water containing an adsorbent to adsorb the flavor component on the adsorbent; and recovering the adsorbent that has adsorbed the flavor component.

Abstract: Provided is a production method for a tobacco flavored liquid for use in a flavor inhaler that generates aerosols, said production method comprising: heating a tobacco material to vaporize a flavor component from the tobacco material; dissolving, in a first liquid as an aerosol source, a gas containing the flavor component to obtain a flavor component-containing liquid; and distilling the flavor component-containing liquid at a temperature lower than the boiling point of the first liquid to obtain a tobacco flavored liquid.

Abstract: Provided is a flavor molded body for a non-combustion heating type flavor inhaler, the flavor molded body having less surface stickiness. A method for producing the flavor molded body for a non-combustion heating type flavor inhaler comprises: a step of mixing a tobacco powder raw material having a mean particle diameter of no greater than 300 ?m, a material having a melting point of 30-200° C., and an alcohol having 2 to 7 carbon atoms, to form a mixture; a step of compressively molding the mixture to form a compression molded product; a step of heating the compression molded product to at least the melting point of the material; and a step of impregnating the heated compression molded product with an aerosol source.

Abstract: A non-combustion-heating-type flavor inhaler, in which a flavor molded body can be fixed in position during use and from which the flavor molded body can be easily removed after use, includes a flavor molded body including a tobacco powder raw material, an aerosol source, and a magnet or a magnet adsorption material that adsorbs the magnet using magnetic force; a flavor molded body accommodation part for accommodating the flavor molded body; a power supply unit provided with a power supply part; a first heating unit for receiving a supply of electric power from the power supply part and generating heat; and a heat-transmitting member provided on the inner wall of the flavor molded body accommodation part. The heat-transmitting member transmits heat from the first heating part to the flavor molded body. The heat-transmitting member includes the magnet adsorption material if the flavor molded body includes the magnet, and includes the magnet if the flavor molded body includes the magnet adsorption material.

Abstract: Provided is a technology capable of suppressing the occurrence of scorching in an electrical load of an atomization unit of a suction tool. A method for manufacturing an atomization unit of a suction tool having a liquid storage section and an electrical load comprises: an extraction step (S10) in which a tobacco material subjected to an alkali treatment is heated to extract a flavor component from the tobacco material; a molding step (S20) in which a tobacco residue, which is the tobacco material after being extracted in the extraction step, is cleaned by means of an acidic cleaning liquid having a pH of 7.0 or less to reduce the pH of the tobacco residue to less than 8.0, and the tobacco residue after the cleaning is solidified to mold into a predetermined shape, thereby producing a molded body; and an assembly step (S40) in which an aerosol liquid and the molded body produced in the molding step are stored in the liquid storage section.

Abstract: Provided is a flavor molded article that is easy to store and transport, that prevents volatilization of flavor components during storage and transport, and that has a sufficient strength and a good flavor. This production method for a flavor molded article comprises: a step for forming a mixture by mixing a tobacco powder material having an average particle size of at most 100 ?m with an alcohol having 2-7 carbon atoms; a step for compression-molding the mixture; and a step for removing at least a portion of the alcohol from the mixture.

Abstract: The present invention provides a flavor molded body for non-combustion heating type flavor inhalers, the flavor molded body exhibiting good handling properties, while having high strength even after use, wherein an aroma component stably volatilizes over the whole period of use. A flavor molded body for non-combustion heating type flavor inhalers, the flavor molded body containing a tobacco powder material, an adsorbent onto which a volatile aroma component is adsorbed, and an aerosol source, wherein the compression breaking strength of the flavor molded body by means of a stake plunger as determined using a tablet hardness meter is 10 N or more.

Abstract: Provided is a tobacco-flavored liquid manufacturing method that includes processing a tobacco liquid extract using a material containing an inorganic porous body, and removing microorganisms from the tobacco liquid extract.

Abstract: An electric movable body transmits a signal including identification information identical to identification information retained in a first power storage pack via near-field communication when the first power storage pack is detached from the electric movable body. A charging device wiredly transmits the identification information received from the electric movable body to a second power storage pack. The second power storage pack transmits via near-field communication a signal including the identification information received from the charging device. The electric movable body collates whether or not the identification information included in the received signal matches the identification information retained in the first power storage pack.

Abstract: A tobacco material comprises an aqueous dispersion medium and tobacco particles that are dispersed in the dispersion medium and have an average particle size of 30 ?m or less, where a hemicellulose content in the tobacco material is 0.8% by weight or less based on bone-dry tobacco particles. The tobacco material exhibits low viscosity as a feature.

Abstract: A method for preparing a black liquor according to the present invention comprises digesting a tobacco raw material under an alkaline condition to obtain the black liquor. Further, a method for preparing a flavor component-containing liquid according to the present invention comprises digesting a tobacco raw material under an alkaline condition, separating the obtained digesting product into a black liquor and a tobacco fiber, and desalinating the black liquor to obtain the flavor component-containing liquid.
