High efficiency apparatus for liquid smoke generation from wood

摘要

This invention relates to a high efficiency apparatus for manufacturing an aqueous wood smoke solution in the form of a liquid smoke desired concentration by burning wood, wooden chips or sawdust in a limited amount of air. Wood consumption per unit of liquid smoke is significantly smaller comparing to conventional methods, while the air pollution is reduced to a negligible level.

主权项

1. An apparatus for manufacturing an aqueous wood smoke solution in the form of liquid smoke comprising an incinerator partially filled with wood, wooden chips or sawdust which generates smoke by incinerating the wood, wooden chips or sawdust in a limited amount of air which is in operative connection with a partially filled water tank and smoke conveying device which are interconnected by pipes creating a sealed system, wherein said smoke is conveyed through a conveying device wherein smoke is forced through a water tank and travels upwardly through the tank mixing with water tank due to a pressure differential within the water tank and the incinerator wherein the water and smoke is conveyed through a pipe and condensed to liquid smoke any residual smoke not mixed with water captured above the water level in the water tank is recirculated back to the incinerator.
