Microbial Applications in Construction Materials

This cluster of papers focuses on the use of microbial carbonate precipitation, particularly through the action of ureolytic bacteria, for soil improvement and self-healing concrete in construction. It explores biocementation, calcite precipitation, and biomineralization as sustainable techniques in geotechnical engineering, aiming to enhance the durability and strength of construction materials.
