Abstract

La présente invention concerne : des pastilles à base végétale qui produisent peu de poussière, qui réduisent la quantité de polluants atmosphériques provenant d'une chaudière et améliorent la sécurité opérationnelle d'une chaudière à biomasse lorsqu'elles sont utilisées comme combustible et qui peuvent être utilisées pour réduire avantageusement les frais de gestion en cours de transport ; et un procédé de production des pastilles. Plus précisément, la présente invention concerne des pastilles et un procédé de production des pastilles dans lequel une biomasse lignocellulosique est utilisée comme matière de départ et la rugosité superficielle moyenne d'une section de surface latérale des pastilles est de 50 à 250 nm.
