Application of Microbial Induced Calcite Precipitation (MICP) Technology in Geotechnical and Geo-Environmental Engineering: A Review

open access: yesArid Zone Journal of Engineering, Technology and Environment, 2021
One of the most recent areas of research in geotechnical and geo-environmental engineering is bio-mineralization, a natural process in living organisms, also known as Microbial Induced Calcite Precipitation.

The influence of fertilisation and crop rotation on soil microbial characteristics in the long-term field experiment

open access: yesPlant, Soil and Environment, 2009
Soils were sampled from the plots with four variants of fertilisation: Nil - without fertilisation, NPK - mineral fertilisation, FYM - farmyard manure, FYM + NPK - farmyard manure with mineral fertilisation, and two variants of crop rotation: field IV ...

Microbial CaCO3 precipitation for the production of biocement

open access: yes, 2004
The hydrolysis of urea by the widely distributed enzyme urease is special in that it is one of the few biologically occurring reactions that can generate carbonate ions without an associated production of protons. When this hydrolysis occurs in a calcium-

Encrusting cystitis caused by Corynebacterium urealyticum

open access: yesВестник урологии
Incrusting cystitis is an extremely uncommon form of chronic bladder inflammation. It is characterised by wall calcification and associated with urease-producing microorganisms, most commonly Corynebacterium urealyticum.

Using basalt flour and brown algae to improve biological properties of soil contaminated with cadmium

open access: yesSoil and Water Research, 2015
In order to achieve homeostasis of soil, the potential of alleviating substances (two innovative: basalt flour and brown algae extract against two classic compounds: barley straw and compost) were analyzed in soil contaminated with cadmium.

Urease-Producing Halophilic Bacteria Isolated from Bahr Al-Milh Salt Lake, Karbala, Iraq

open access: yes, 2017
Salt lakes represent an extreme habitat for prokaryotes which tolerate significant concentration of NaCl. Many studies on screening and characterization of these microorganisms have been done, however, very little reported about urease producer ...

Immobilization of urease in alginate, paraffin and lac [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the Serbian Chemical Society, 2010
The enzyme urease (EC.3.5.1.5) from jack bean meal was immobilized by various techniques, such as entrapment in calcium alginate gel spheres in aqueous suspension; lac impregnated muslin cloth as dry films and by embedding in paraffin wax impregnated ...

High strength in-situ biocementation of soil by calcite precipitating locally isolated ureolytic bacteria

open access: yes, 2008
This study has contributed to the patented technology of biocement (Microbial Biocementation, WO/2006/066326). Biocementation or biogrout is a sand consolidation technology, in which the carbonate released from microbial urea hydrolysis precipitates with

Scale-dependent relationships between soil organic carbon and urease activity

open access: yes, 2007
Many soil properties and processes vary at different spatial scales. As a result, relationships between soil properties often depend on scale. In this paper we show this for two soil properties of biological importance, by means of a nested analysis of ...
