Comparison of experimental techniques for biocementation of sands considering homogeneous volume distribution of precipitated calcium carbonate
Microbially induced carbonate precipitation (MICP), or biocementation, consists in using microorganisms living in the soil to produce calcium carbonate (biocement).This mineral bonds the grains and therefore improves the soil hydro-mechanical properties.When using this technique, one of the challenges is to ensure homogeneous treatment in the entir
