An igniter apparatus for igniting a tobacco-based product having a sensitized tip. The igniter apparatus includes a first member and a second member cooperatively defining a chamber having sides supporting an abrasive. The first member and second member are biased at a first position with a bias element and movement of the first member toward the second member compresses the bias element, reduces the size of the chamber, and thereby decreases the distance between the abrasives located at the side of the chamber. Insertion of the tobacco based product in the first position locates the sensitized tip adjacent to the abrasives. Compression of the bias element reduces the size of the chamber such that the sensitized tip contacts the abrasive. Removal of the tobacco-based product from the reduced-in-size chamber ignites the sensitized tip, thereby lighting the tobacco-based product for smoking.

There is described an aerosol provision article for use with an aerosol provision device for generating an inhalable medium including an aerosol. The aerosol provision article includes a first chamber for containing a first substance that is heatable to generate an aerosol; a conduit that extends through the first chamber, the conduit having an inlet through which aerosol generated from the first substance can enter the conduit and an outlet through which the aerosol can exit the conduit and a second chamber for receiving a second substance, wherein the second chamber is downstream of the outlet of the conduit. The article is arranged such that in use aerosol exiting the outlet of the conduit passes through the second substance received in the second chamber, and wherein the cross-sectional area of the conduit increases at or towards the outlet.

A smoking article is provided, including a combustible carbonaceous heat source having opposed front and rear end faces; an aerosol-forming substrate downstream of the rear end face of the combustible carbonaceous heat source; an ignitable composition provided on at least a portion of the front end face of the combustible carbonaceous heat source; and one or more airflow pathways along configured to allow air to be drawn through the smoking article for inhalation, the ignitable composition being configured to be ignited by striking the front end face on a frictional surface, and being isolated from the one or more airflow pathways such that air drawn along the one or more airflow pathways does not directly contact the ignitable composition.

A method of forming a carbon material from the stalk or roots of a plant of the Nicotiana species is provided herein, wherein the method includes i) receiving a tobacco material comprising at least one of a stalk material and a root material of a harvested plant of the Nicotiana species; and ii) pyrolyzing the tobacco material to remove volatiles and to form a tobacco-derived carbon material. Optionally, the method can further include activating the tobacco-derived carbon material. The tobacco-derived carbon material can be incorporated into a tobacco product. A carbon material derived from pyrolyzing a tobacco material in the form of at least one of a tobacco stalk material and a tobacco root material of a harvested plant of the Nicotiana species is also provided herein.

An integrated cigarette filter that can light up, cut and put out a cigarette, hold ash and butts and filter smoke. It comprises upper and lower casings and is characterized by a smoke-collecting hood arranged on the upper casing and an inlet ventilator furnished inside the hood. The hood is snapped onto the upper casing in a detachable manner. The inlet ventilator is fixed to the upper casing with screws and snap-fasteners. The smoking device is inside the upper casing, while the purification device is inside the lower casing. There is a trimming between the upper and lower casings, and the two casings are connected with snap-fasteners. The device can eliminate passive smoking from the source, and directly purify harmful gases and particles in mainstream and sidestream smoke during use, without causing adverse effects or damage to people around smokers.
