A method of expanding tobacco involves introducing a steam flow and a tobacco material into a duct having an inlet and an outlet and defining an arcuate flow path. The tobacco is entrained in the steam flow and conveyed along the arcuate flow path and toward the outlet. The presence of the steam results in volumetric expansion of the tobacco as the steam and entrained tobacco travel along the flow path. The steam and entrained tobacco are then collected and separated. As such, an expanded tobacco is provided.

Selon la présente invention, un procédé de gonflement de tabac implique l'introduction d'un flux de vapeur et d'une matière de tabac dans une conduite possédant une entrée et une sortie et formant une voie d'écoulement arquée. Ledit tabac est entraîné dans le flux de vapeur et il est acheminé le long de la voie d'écoulement arquée jusqu'à la sortie. La présence de vapeur se solde par un gonflement volumétrique du tabac, à mesure que la vapeur et le tabac entraîné se déplacent le long de la voie d'écoulement. La vapeur et le tabac entraîné sont ensuite recueillis et séparés. Du tabac gonflé est ainsi obtenu.
