I am using Substrate node template for my application. I have added custom pallet.

This is a solo chain. I just want to know where transaction fee goes after a successful balance transfer. I have read here that For Polkadot and Kusama, 80% of the transaction fees go to the treasury, and 20% go to the block producer. But I don't have treasury pallet integrated in my runtime.

Can somebody please tell where does it to go without a treasury pellet? Does 100% go to block producer?

For the node template.

It uses CurrencyAdapter<Balance, ()>.

The second parameter is () instead of a treasury instance, which means the fee will be burned.

Check https://paritytech.github.io/substrate/master/pallet_transaction_payment/struct.CurrencyAdapter.html and https://paritytech.github.io/substrate/master/frame_support/traits/tokens/imbalance/trait.OnUnbalanced.html#impl-OnUnbalanced%3CImbalance%3E-for-().
