摘要:Bio-cementation is a sand consolidation technology, in which ureolytic bacteria release carbonate from urea hydrolysis in the presence of an excess of calcium ions to form calcite (CaCO 3 ) in-situ. Biocementation is to enhance the strength and stiffness properties of soil and rocks though microbial activity or products. This paper addressed the prospect of microbial carbonate precipitation for erosion control in Bangladesh. Bacterial CaCO 3 precipitation under appropriate conditions is a general phenomenon where the ureolytic bacteria uses urea as an energy source and produces ammonia which increases the pH in the environment and generates carbonate, causing Ca 2+ and CO 3 2- to be precipitated as CaCO 3 . This CaCO 3 join sand particles and forms rocklike materials that auto-repairs by means of sunlight, seawater, and bacteria as microbially induced carbonate precipitation method. These rock particles when produced artificially is called artificial rock and has the potentiality to protect coastlines from erosion. J. Environ. Sci. & Natural Resources, 9(1): 59-61 2016
