Solidification and stabilization (S/S) treatment via cement is common and effective for
improving soil strength and stabilizing heavy metals in contaminated soils, but has certain …

The formation of minerals such as calcite and struvite through the hydrolysis of urea
catalyzed by ureolytic bacteria is a simple and easy way to control mechanisms, which has …

Copper contamination in watercourses is a recent issue in countries where mining
operations are prevalent. In this study, the application of copper precipitation through …

Bio-inspired self-healing of concrete cracks has been widely exploited to improve concrete
properties and thus increase concrete life span using different bacterial species in recent …

Bacteria with ureasic activity are microorganisms found in soil that in presence of urea and
calcium, they can produce calcium carbonate, a process known as microbiologically …

During the anaerobic treatment of high‑calcium (> 800 mg/L) organic wastewater, calcium
ions, carbonate ions, phosphates, and other substances combine on the biofilm surface to …

Aerial lime-mortars are widely used in the conservation interventions, in which polymers
could improve their mechanical strength. In this work, the effects of carboxymethyl cellulose …

Bacterially driven reactions such as ureolysis can induce calcium carbonate precipitation, a
well-studied process called microbially induced calcium carbonate precipitation (MICP) …

Being able to exist in a wide range of conditions, microorganisms inhabit almost all elements
of the geological environment and function as various components of the ecosystem …

A dynamic model for Sporosarcina pasteurii-mediated ureolytic biocalcification process has
been proposed, which incorporates microbial growth-dependent ureolysis, equilibrium …
