Technical Description
The technology discloses a tobacco-smoke filter combining rice-husk charcoal (RHC) with starch-reinforced cellulose (SRC) fibres. Charcoal is sandwiched between fibre blocks or dispersed through the fibre matrix, with starch serving as the binder.
Problems Addressed
- Low Tar Retention
- Persistent Filter Litter
- Slow Cellulose-Acetate Degradation
- Marine Waste Impacts
- Synthetic Binding Materials
- Filter Manufacturing Costs
