Abstract
Abstract An agent and a method for producing an agent utilized as an additive to foodstuffs or the like for imparting thereto a smoked taste while concurrently improving their physical properties and forming an antiseptic or anti-oxidant. The method of producing the agent comprises the destructive distillation of a cellulosic or lignitic material, preferably deciduous tree wood and/or conifers or peat.

Claim 1
Independent Claim
284 words
A METHOD OF PRODUCING AN AROMATIZING AND/OR ANTISEPTIC AND/OR OXIDIATION AGWNT COMPRISING DESTRUCTIVELY DISTILLING A CELLULOSIC OR LIGININ MATERIAL OBTAINED FROM WOOD OR PEAT IN THE PRESENCE OF A 4-30 FOLD EXCESS OF AIR AT A TEMPERATURE OF 400*-1200*C. TO FORM SMOKE, CONDENSING THE SMOKE TO FORM A CONDENSATE, TREATING THE CONDENSATE WITH AN AQUEOUS SOLUTION, OF A STRONG BASE TO RAISE THE PH TO ABOUT 10.5 EXTRACTING THE CONDENSATE WITH A WATER-IMMISCRIBE ORGANIC SOLVENT SEPQRATING FIRST AQUEOUS AND FIRST ORGANIC PHASES RAISING THE PH OF THE FIRST ORGANIC PHASE TO ABOUT 12.8 WITH A STRONG BASE AND EXTRACTING WITH A WATER IMMISCRIBE SOLVENT TO FORM TWO PHASES WHICH ARE A SECOND AQUEOUS AND SECOND ORGANIC PHASE TREATING THE SECOND AQUEOUS PHASE WITH A MINERAL ACID TO LOWER THE PH TO ABOUT 10.5, EXTRACTING SAID SECOND AQUEOUS PHASE WITH A WATER-IMMISCRIBE SOLVENT TO FORM TWO PHASES WHICH ARE A THIRD AQUEOUS AND THIRD ORGANIC PHASE, EVOPERATING THE SOLVENT FROM THE THIRD ORGANIC PHASE. TO OBTAIN THEFIRST FRACTION, EVOPRATING TE SOLVENT FROM THE SECOND ORGANIC PHASE TO OBTAIN A RESIDUE, DISTILLING SAID RESIDUE UNDER REDUCED PRESSURE TO OBTAIN THE SECOND FRACTION WHICH BOILS AT TEMPERATURE UP TO 220*C, AT A PRESSURE OF 10MM HG, ACIDIFYING THE FIRST AQUEOUS PHASE WITH MINERAL ACID TO A PH OF ABOUT 5, EXTRACTING SAID FIRST AQUEOUS PHASE WITH A WATER-IMMISCRIBE SOLVENT TO FORM TWO PHASES WHICH ARE A FOURTH AQUEOUS AND FOURTH ORGANIC PHASE, ACIDIFYING SAID FOURTH AQUEOUS PHASE TO A PH OF ABOUT 3 AND EXTRACTING SAME WITH A WATER-IMMISCRIBE SOLVENT TO FORM TWO PHASES WHICH ARE A FIFTH AQUEOUS AND FIFTH ORGANIC PHASE AND EVAPORATING THE SOLVENT FROM THE FIFTH ORGANIC PHASE TO OBTAIN THE THIRD FRACTION.

Claim 4
Dependent Claim
17 words
A method as claimed in claim 1 wherein the air is present in a 6-15 fold excess.
