In simple terms, the process involves: Preparation of the substrate (in this case cut or ground up tobacco leaves) Addition of a chosen solvent (such as alcohol) to the substrate material The solvent is allowed time and/or the mixture is agitated to allow for penetration into the solid matrix The solute (nicotine) dissolves in the solvents Nicotine is diffused out of the solid mixture and collected Simplified Industrial Extraction Process Minced tobacco leaves are added to a sieve Lime slurry is added to create a reaction freeing nicotine from its salts The resulting mixture is superheated with pressurized steam, resulting in a steam distillation of the mixture The resulting vapors are condensed and collected The nicotine from the vapor is then extracted from the condensate using kerosene Next, a solution of 25% sulfuric acid is used to extract nicotine from the kerosene Lastly, alkali is used to manipulate the pH to 6 for safe storage and transportation How is Nicotine Consumed & How is it Used
