Manufacturing bio-tiles
… ceramic tiles could be met using the ureolysis MICP pathway. The ureolytic activity of Sporosarcina pasteurii was controlled by centrifuging and dilution with fresh yeast extract media. Bio-tiles can be made with MICP using various methods, each with drawbacks and advantages. Three …

Understanding ureolytic calcium carbonate biomineralization for crack repair in cementitious materials
Cracks in concrete can weaken structures, destroy integrity, impair function and open pathways for corrosive chemicals. Biomineralizaion is a common phenomenon in which most bacteria can produce precipitates that can be utilized to block the pathways and heal the cracks eventually. Researchers have …

Microbial-Induced Calcium Carbonate Precipitation: from micro to macro scale
Microbial-Induced Calcium Carbonate (CaCO3) Precipitation (MICP) is a biological process in which microbial activities alter the surrounding aqueous environment and induce CaCO3 precipitation. Because the formed CaCO3 crystals can bond soil particles and improve the mechanical properties of soils …
