Abstract (en)

A shredding method and a device for obtaining nanocellulose are proposed. By means of the combination of several steps through which a solution (1) passes, said solution consisting of a mixture of bleached cellulose diluted in water in a proportion of between 1% and 6% of bleached cellulose which is subjected to a pressure of between 250 and 600 bar, in order to accelerate the solution (1) so as to reach a speed of about 50 m/s-250 m/s in a nozzle (3) through the passage (4) thereof, the solution (1) subsequently being expanded and decompressed, causing it to collide against same, and thereby obtaining the nanocellulose. The device is made up of the combination of a compression chamber (2), including a compressor (12), and a nozzle (3) having a passage (4), wherein on the opposite side of the nozzle (3), there is arranged another receiving chamber (7) which has a dead center (8) and a decompressor (13).
