“…Authors as Wiffin et al (2007), have used MICP to increase sand stabilization and have obtained a decrease in porosity and an increase in soil hardness. Likewise, DeJong et al (2010), Gorospe et al (2013), and Mortensen et al (2011), have stated that the induction of calcium carbonate precipitation binds sand grains, increasing soil strength and stiffness. Ivanov and Chu (2008) compared the cost of traditional chemical glue with microbial binding, and concluded that the latter is cheaper.…”

“…Calcium chloride induces the formation of rhombohedral crystals (DeYoreo & Vekilov, 2003;Favre, Christ & Pierre, 2009;Gorospe et al, 2013), calcium acetate induces lamellar crystals composed of vaterite (Gorospe, et al, 2013), and lactate and calcium gluconate induces more complex forms with spherical-shaped vaterite (Tai & Chen, 1998). In 2012, Abo-El-Enein, Ali, Talkhan & Abdel-Gawwad, evaluated the calcium source for the biocementation process, concluding that calcite size, morphology and degree of crystallization produced by biocementation depends on the source of calcium used; the authors obtained better results in terms of a compressive strength increase and water absorption decrease with calcium chloride, followed by calcium acetate and finally calcium nitrate.…”

“…However, it is necessary to optimize the pH range for MICP for any specific bacteria strain that will be used. For example, a study conducted by Annamalai, Arunachalam & Sathyanarayanan (2012) using S. pasteurii NCIM 2477 optimized pH conditions for the culture used to produce calcium carbonate crystals, and they concluded that the appropriate pH was 7.5; however, although a pH of 8.0 has also been reported as adequate for S. pasteurii ATCC 6453 and KCTC 3558, a higher pH decreases enzymatic activity (Gorospe et al, 2013;Stocks-Fischer et al, 1999b). Moreover, if pH levels are very low, carbonate tends to dissolve and it is not precipitated.…”

Bacteria with ureasic activity are microorganisms found in soil that in presence of urea and calcium, they can produce calcium carbonate, a process known as microbiologically induced calcium carbonate precipitation (MICP). This article discusses this process and its mechanism, as well as bacterial urease, calcium carbonate crystals formed, and factors that affect the efficiency of MICP, as type of bacteria, bacterial cell concentrations, pH, temperature and calcium and urea concentrations. In addition, applications as removal of heavy metals in water, bioconsolidation, biocement and CO 2 sequestration are also discussed.Keywords: Biomineralization; Bacillus; urease; carbonates; heavy metals; bioconsolidation; biocementation.

“…Copper carbonate (copper hydroxy carbonate) is naturally produced as azurite, 2CuCO 3 ·Cu(OH), or malachite, CuCO 3 ·Cu(OH), whereas calcium carbonate crystals are produced from calcium chloride. Previous study (Gorospe et al, 2013) used calcium chloride as a source of Ca 2+ for precipitation of rhombohedral calcium carbonate. Calcium carbonate forms three anhydrous polymorphs: calcite, aragonite, and vaterite (Gebauer et al, 2010).…”

Abandoned mine sites are frequently polluted with high concentrations of heavy metals. In this study, 25 calcite-forming bacteria were newly isolated from the soil of an abandoned metal mine in Korea. Based on their urease activity, calcite production, and resistance to copper toxicity, four isolates were selected and further identified by 16S rRNA gene sequencing. Among the isolates, Sporosarcina soli B-22 was selected for subsequent copper biosequestration studies, using the sand impermeability test by production of calcite and extracellular polymeric substance. High removal rates (61.8%) of copper were obtained when the sand samples were analyzed using an inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectrometer following 72 h of incubation. Scanning electron microscopy showed that the copper carbonate precipitates had a diameter of approximately 5-10 m m m m mm. X-ray diffraction further confirmed the presence of copper carbonate and calcium carbonate crystals.

Microbial processes that bind heavy metals and form minerals are widespread, and they represent a basic aspect of biogeochemistry. Some microorganisms can crystallize minerals by secreting a specific enzyme. In particular, calcite (CaCO 3 ) precipitation is an important part of biomineralization, and has been studied extensively because of its wide application in civil engineering technology. This process provides an effective way to stabilize heavy metals within a relatively stable crystal phase. In this study, biomineralization of calcite by three urea-hydrolyzing indigenous bacterial strains was investigated by microbiological analyses. Three bacterial strains were isolated from the sludge of B mine in Mexico and each bacterial strain was identified by the cellular fatty acid composition and 16S rRNA partial sequencing analysis. The results of the identification analysis showed that these strains were closest to Sporosarcina pasteurii, Kurthia gibsonii, and Paenibacillus polymyxa. We found that the optimum conditions for growth of these indigenous bacteria were 30-40 o C and pH range of 7-8. Microbiological analyses showed the possibility that the bioaccumulated heavy metals ions were deposited around the cell as crystalline carbonate minerals under the optimum conditions. The findings of our study suggest that the indigenous bacterial strains play an important role in heavy metal immobilization.
