Abstract

A method of manufacturing an erosion, sediment and pollution control product comprises heat treating a rice hull filler material for sterilizing the rice hull filler material and increasing the pollutant affinity of the rice hull filler material; filling a tubular containment member with the rice hull filler material in a manner allowing fluid to flow through the containment member and the rice hull filler material. The containment member is a geotextile which may include cellulose based threads treated to be hydrophobic.
