Abstract

The present invention relates to methods and systems for the continuous analysis (160) and removal (410) of toxins from tobacco. Products, such as tobacco contaminated with mycotoxins, especially aflatoxins and benzopyrene and their precursors, are treated, usually in a solvent medium, to remove the toxin contamination from the tobacco. As an example, all noxious toxins eluted from the wash solvent (150) are continuously monitored (160) by immunoantibody UV fluorescence analysis. A quality control process ensures that harmful toxins are removed from the tobacco before further processing. Purification of extraction solvent streams and readditives ensures safe reuse or disposal of solvents or readditives.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to improved methods and devices for the detection and removal of harmful toxins found in tobacco and tobacco products, such as mycotoxins and benzopyrene (BZP), thereby ensuring product association and / or or consumption is safe. More specifically, the present invention relates to the continuous detection, monitoring and removal of harmful mycotoxins, especially, but not limited to aflatoxins and benzopyrene and their precursors, during the processing of tobacco for human consumption, consumption and use new methods and devices. In addition, the new method and apparatus suppresses the production of harmful toxins in tobacco and tobacco products, and continuously monitors and removes these toxins from solvent and gas effluent streams from processed tobacco. Background technique [0002] Since at least as early as the 1980s, increasing concerns about public safety have led tobacco processors and refiners to attempt to reduc...
