CORESTA Meeting, Smoke/Technology, Vienna, 1995, ST03 Dust and noise emissions from the tobacco industry LORENZEN H.C.; MÖLLER H.; ROBINSON D.P. Koerber AG, Hamburg, Germany The public, industry and governments alike are showing ever increasing concern about the extent and effect of industrial pollutants on the environment. Atmospheric emissions, by the tobacco industry, of noise and dust have been the subject of...
CORESTA Meeting, Smoke/Technology, Budapest, 1993, ST 22 Recent investigations of HT tobacco processing FUNKE P. Koerber AG, Hamburg, Germany The HT-process for the expansion of cut tobacco is a well established process in the tobacco industry. The expansion is achieved by the steaming of tobacco within the HT-tunnel, which rapidly increases tobacco temperature close to the boiling point...
CORESTA Meeting, Smoke/Technology, Budapest, 1993, ST 27 Foreign body detection FUNKE P. Koerber AG, Hamburg, Germany The detection and separation of foreign bodies in tobacco has become an increasing need in the tobacco industry. Therefore several possibilities based on different physical properties of tobacco and foreign bodies have been evaluated and tested. The...
CORESTA Meeting, Smoke/Technology, Budapest, 1993, ST 21 On-line cigarette hardness measurement and control HOPPE R.; LINDEMANN R.; MOELLER H. Koerber AG, Hamburg, Germany From the beginning of cigarette production, the firmness of the cigarettes has been an important quality parameter. Though several attempts have been made to realize a way to measure cigarette hardness on the maker during production, no device has...
CORESTA Meeting, Smoke/Technology, Budapest, 1993, ST 29 Some aspects of environmental protection in the tobacco industry LORENZEN H.C. Koerber AG, Hamburg, Germany It is assumed that the fundamental issue of environmental protection as such is no longer a matter for discussion.

Koerber AG, Hamburg, Germany The diameter of the tobacco rod and the filter rod are important factors in the cigarette making process. On the one hand, these two factors influence the quality parameters such as pressure drop, smoke analysis values, rod hardness and the quality...
CORESTA Meeting, Smoke/Technology, Utrecht, 1991, S16 On-line optical measuring system for determining tobacco particle size FUNKE P.; DREWES P.; ROETHER F. Koerber AG, Hamburg, Germany It has been shown that the recently developed particle size mesuring unit can be used in production for monitoring quality. The structural parameters obtained with the aid of this unit are directly comparable with the parameters determined by sieve...
CORESTA Meeting, Smoke/Technology, Utrecht, 1991, S06 Temperature measurements on cigarettes MOELLER H.; TOBIAS J. Koerber AG, Hamburg, Germany When measuring the temperature of cigarettes, various different methods must be employed depending on the requirements. The authors have examined the suitability of one example from the category of temperature probes and one from the category of...
Bull. Spec. CORESTA Symposium, Kallithea, 1990, p. 193, T06, ISSN.0525-6240 Continuous online measurement process to determine the filling power of tobacco FUNKE P. Koerber AG, Hamburg, Germany Numerous papers have been written on filling power over the past few years and general agreement has been reached that tobacco filling power is an important criterion in assessing the quality of cut tobacco. These findings would appear to suggest...
