Systems, methods and apparatuses for aerosolizing all or substantially all plant matter, medications, flavors, smells, liquid and/or other material to be aerosolizing are disclosed. Embodiments of the invention comprise an aerosolization chamber sealed except for two or more conduits, a first conduit coupled to a source of fully or almost fully oxygenated gas, a heating element capable of heating the aerosolization chamber to a temperature above a combustion temperature, a second conduit configured to transport aerosolized gases and elements out of the chamber and, in one implementation, at least one valve positioned in the second conduit preventing the flow of atmospheric air into the vaporization chamber. In some instances, the first gas substantially clears the vaporization chamber of atmospheric air prior to reaching combustion temperature. A second gas containing oxygen may be intermixed with the vaporization gases and vaporized elements proximal to the combustion chamber.

A heater and a cigarette device containing the heater are provided. The heater includes a base. A cavity chamber is formed inside the base and is used to receive solid smoking substances. The base has an opened end and a closed end disposed opposite to each other. The solid smoking substances are received in the cavity chamber or removed from the cavity chamber through the opened end. An infrared heating assembly is used to receive electric powers of an electric power source in order to generate heat, and transmits the generated heat in at least a way of infrared radiation toward the solid smoking substances received in the cavity chamber from the closed end of the base in order to generate aerosols for inhaling. The generated aerosols are brought away by airflows passing the opened end of the base.

An inhaling device for producing an aerosol by using a first substrate and a second substrate, said inhaling device being equipped with a control unit for controlling the operation of a power supply unit which supplies the power for operation of the inhaling device on the basis of the combination of the first and second substrates.

An aerosol generating device includes a heater that heats an aerosol generating substrate, a temperature sensor that detects a temperature of the heater, and a controller that controls power supplied to the heater through a power signal such that the heater is heated within a preset temperature range, filters the power signal, and detects a user's puff based on the filtered power signal. Accordingly, the aerosol generating device according to the present disclosure may more accurately detect a user's puff.

Provided herein are a sidestream smoke removal device and a control method thereof. The sidestream smoke removal device according to some embodiments of the present disclosure includes a housing in which a smoking space is formed, an ignition portion which is configured to ignite the smoking article inserted into the smoking space, a sidestream smoke processing portion which is configured to process sidestream smoke generated from the smoking article inserted into the smoking space, a temperature sensor which is configured to measure the temperature of the smoking article inserted into the smoking space, a display which is disposed on an outside of the housing, and a controller which is configured to monitor smoking progress with respect to the smoking article on the basis of the measured temperature and display a monitoring result through the display. The sidestream smoke removal device can visually provide a series of information related to smoking progress to a user, and accordingly, ease of use and safety may be significantly improved.
