Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé de destruction des billets de banque avec lequel les billets de banque sont contrôlés et triés à au moins un poste décentralisé au moyen d'au moins une machine de traitement des billets de banque. Selon l'invention, les billets de banque qui ne sont pas aptes à la circulation sont éliminés par triage afin de pouvoir être transportés en vue de leur destruction à un poste central. Il est prévu ici que tous les billets de banque reconnus non aptes à la circulation soient déposés sur une pile unique indépendamment de la dénomination détectée lors du contrôle et/ou de la position des billets de banque, ce qui permet d'utiliser un casier de sortie unique de la machine de traitement des billets de banque pour tous les billets de banque non aptes à la circulation.
