A permeable material compacting method comprising:
- feeding permeable material between at least one set of rollers;
- and
- decreasing a cross sectional area of the permeable material as it passes between the at least one set of rollers.
A permeable material compacting apparatus comprising at least one set of rollers having rollers configured and oriented relative to one another to compact permeable material moved through the at least one set of rollers to thereby reduce a cross sectional area of the permeable material subsequent passing through the at least one set of rollers in comparison to a cross sectional area of the permeable material prior to passing through the at least one set of rollers.
