Bioconsolidation of Stone Monuments. An Overview
Restoration of Buildings and Monuments, 2016Abstract This article reviews the carbonation process through biomineralization referred to as Microbial Induced Calcium Carbonate Precipitation (MICCP) for the conservation of carbonate stone monuments and historic building materials. This biological process widely occurs in nature as microbes produce inorganic materials within their ...
