Biomineralization in self-healing cement-based materials: investigating the temporal evolution of microbial metabolic state and material porosity
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2017)
The potential for self-healing of concrete via biomineralization processes in which microorganisms influence mineral precipitation is promising. To embed microorganisms within a cement-based material, key challenges are ...
Use of pre-wetted lightweight fine expanded shale aggregates as internal nutrient reservoirs for microorganisms in bio-mineralized mortar
(Elsevier, 2017-11)
Interest in developing bio-based self-healing cement-based materials has gained broader attention in the concrete community. One of challenges in developing bio-based self-healing cement-based materials is that cell death ...
Impact of air entraining admixtures on biogenic calcium carbonate precipitation and bacterial viability
(Elsevier, 2017)
The applications of self-healing in cement-based materials via biomineralization processes are developing quickly. The main challenge is to find a microorganism that can tolerate the restricted environment of cement paste ...
