- Review on geotechnical engineering properties of sands treated by microbially induced calcium carbonate precipitation (MICP) and biopolymers (2020, background): “Soil improvement is one of the most important issue in geotechnical engineering practices; cement-based materials have been widely used for various soil improvement strategies [1,2] because of their benefits such as safety, workability, and affordability.”
- Tests and methods of evaluating the self-healing efficiency of concrete: A review (2016, background): “Besides, compressive strength was reported to have increased by 36% [4].”
- A review of microbial precipitation for sustainable construction (2015, methodology): “Application of MICP has been demonstrated in the remediation of heavy metals [9,10,8], soil strengthening and improvement [112], restoration of stone materials [23,96,99,87], wastewater treatment [51], sand consolidation [2]), strengthening of concrete [83], and durability of building materials [32,”
- Biomineralization of calcium carbonates and their engineered applications: a review (2013, background): “They also studied the effect of B. pasteurii on water impermeability in concrete cubes and found the reduction in penetration of water which was more significant on the top side as compared to sides because of better compaction and closing of pores at the top surface (Achal et al., 2011a).”
- Bacteria based self healing concrete – A review (2017, neutral): “Deposition of CaCO 3 on the cell surfaces and in the pores of cement-sand matrix plugs the pores in the mortar and causes improvement in the compressive strength by Bacillus sp. CT-5 [50,51].”
