Abstract
A method for employing tobacco dust in a paper-making process for the preparation of reconstituted tobacco is disclosed. The method for employing the tobacco dust comprises admixing tobacco dust with a bonding material to form a mixture, treating the mixture to form agglomerated particles, admixing the agglomerated particles with a tobacco-parts slurry and then forming the slurry into a sheet by means of a paper-making process, drying and then shredding the resultant reconstituted tobacco sheet. The smoking material obtained by such method is also described.
