2022 Eshbach Lecture “Tailor-made soil properties by biogeochemical means”
Technological Institute L211, Northwestern University, McCormick School of Engineering, Department of Civil and Environmental EngineeringABSTRACT: Among the non-conventional soil consolidation techniques, bio-mineralization has been a central focus of research for the past decade. At its core, Microbially Induced Calcium Carbonate Precipitation (MICP) is a multi-physical phenomenon, resulting in a natural CaCO3 bio-cement, capable of improving the mechanical properties of geomaterials. At the confluence of many disciplines, the technique is […]
