Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The invention relates to a method for obtaining aromatics.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1 . Method for obtaining flavorings comprising the step of (A 0 ) enriching a gaseous composition with at least one flavoring by contacting the gaseous composition with a liquid containing the at least one flavoring; (A 1 ) contacting the gaseous composition containing at least one flavoring with an adsorber, said adsorber comprising a molecular sieve having a pore diameter of at most 8 Å; and (A 2 ) contacting the gaseous composition according to step (A 1 ) with a liquid. 2 . The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the molecular sieve, at a temperature of about 40° C. and a pressure of about 1.013 bar absolute, binds at least two times the amount of short-chain alcohols in comparison with water from an aqueous alcoholic solution, when the aqueous alcoholic solution is an aqueous alcoholic solution of at least 50 g/l of the short-chain alcohol. 3 . The method as claimed in claim 2 , wherein at least 50% of the short-chain alcohols present in the aqueous alcoholic solution are bound to the molecular sieve. 4 . The method as claimed in claim 1 , said molecular sieve comprising a zeolite having an SiO 2 /Al 2 O 3 molar ratio of at least 50. 5 . The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the molecular sieve has a pore diameter in the range from 5 to 6.5 Å. 6 . (canceled) 7 . The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the liquid containing the at least one flavoring is a liquid of plant origin. 8 . The method as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the liquid is fruit juice. 9 . The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the liquid is a fermented liquid. 10 . (canceled) 11 . The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the liquid according to step (A 2 ) is of plant origin, a fermented liquid or a mixture thereof. 12 . The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the liquid containing the at least one flavoring and the liquid according to step (A 2 ) are the same or different liquids. 13 . The method as claimed in claim 10 , wherein the method additionally comprise the step: (A 1 a) condensing the gaseous composition before the contacting with a liquid according to step (A 2 ). 14 . The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the step (A 0 ), (A 1 ) and/or (A 2 ) is repeated at least once.
