There is a demand for barley straw as an odor control mechanism however, transportation issues limit the use of it as a marketable product. The purpose of the project is to explore whether barley straw can be pelleted, and if so, develop the pelleted product in a way that preserves the natural odor control enzymes and properties of the barley straw and allows for an effective, marketable odor control product that can be easily transported/stored and floats.
