Le charbon vert est du charbon qui est produit sans bois, à partir de tout déchet végétal. En effet, il existe de nombreux rejets et résidus qui ne sont ni consommés ni utilisés: pailles diverses, restes de cultures tels les tiges de coton, de mil, de roseau, etc. Le produit se présente sous forme de briquettes faciles à utiliser et sans dégagement de méthane.

CONT
