Provided is an aerosol generating system including a holder configured to generate aerosol by heating a cigarette; and a cradle including an inner space into which the holder is inserted. The holder is configured to be tiltable with respect the cradle. The holder is inserted into the inner space of the cradle and then tilted to generate the aerosol.

A biodegradable cigarette filter tow includes a mixture of at least two or more natural materials selected from the group consisting of hemp fiber, flax fiber, abaca fiber or pulp, sisal fiber or pulp, wood pulp, and cotton fiber or cotton flock. The mixture may also include regenerated cellulose fibers. The mixture may include a natural binder or may be hydroentangled.

Provided are methods and compositions for reducing a throat irritation caused by inhaling vapors or particles of at least one material selected from the group consisting of cannabis, cannabinoids, tobaccO, a herb or combinations thereof, the method comprising administering to a subject in need thereof at least one transient receptor potential (TRP) channel modulator prior to or simultaneously with said inhaling said vapors or particles of said at least one material. Further provided are methods and compositions comprising at least one TRP channel agonist, and/or at least one TRP channel partial agonist for treating pain-selective analgesia via TRP channels; methods for treating local pain; methods for treating migraine and symptoms thereof; and methods for treating osteoporosis and symptoms thereof.

The filter includes a contained filter material with one or more portions of a filter material. The one or more portions define interstices running through a longitudinal length of the contained filter material. The interstices allow an airflow to pass through the longitudinal length of the contained filter material. A consumable substance is infused within the filter material. The consumable substance includes nicotine, a flavorant, a pre-vapor formulation, a sub-combination thereof, or a combination thereof.

Provided is an adsorbent which does not undergo the seeping of an oily component contained therein to an area surrounding the absorbent and has an excellent property to absorb a specific range of hydrocarbons. More specifically provided is a granular absorbent comprising a granular base material, an oil or fat having a melting point of 50° C. or higher and a polyol.

Disclosed are keratin fibre cellular components, specifically keratin fibre cuticle and cortical cells, and their use as absorption and filtration media, and in thermal insulation materials. The keratin fibre cellular components may be oxidised. The keratin fibre cellular components have improved absorbency and filtration capacity compared to the source keratin fibres. The keratin fibre cellular components may be used in, for example, various products for passive absorption and active filtration of gas or liquid media.

An electronic smoking article includes a liquid aerosol formulation, a heater operable to at least partially volatilize the liquid aerosol formulation and form an aerosol and a tubular filter segment downstream of the heater. The tubular filter segment is operable to selectively filter aerosol particles and vapors from the aerosol.

The subject disclosure relates to a device for smoking and filtering smoke. In an aspect, the device can comprise an outer sleeve component, a detachable mouthpiece assembly, an ignition chamber assembly, and a detachable filtration assembly.

An apparatus for manufacturing of rods of a continuous material strand comprising a feeding unit for feeding material strand, a guiding unit for guiding material strand, a compressing unit for compressing the strand and forming a continuous rod of the material strand, and an object feeding unit for feeding an object to the compressing unit. The apparatus is characterised by being provided with a cutting unit for lengthwise cutting of the material strand into at least two partial strands, whereas the partial strands are fed through the guiding unit to the compressing unit. It is provided with a system for adjusting the position of at least one cutting element in the cutting unit so as to adjust the widths of the partial strands thus determining the point of insertion of the object being inserted.
