摘要：The present study provides an effective technique of ground improvement using bio-enzyme. Bio
Enzymes are basically organic solutions. They are produced by the chemical changes of fruit extracts, vegetable, sugar
and water caused due to fermentation.In this study, a bio-enzyme named Terrazyme is used for improving the
Unconfined Compressive Strength (UCS) and California bearing ratio (CBR) value in soil and they are further been
compared with the virgin soil’s CBR and UCS value. Terrazyme is natural, non-toxic and liquid enzyme. Sugarcane
extracts are been fermented for Terrazyme production. It can be used as a soil stabilizer. It can also improve the rate of
stabilization of soil in various constructions. The Terrazyme is acidic in nature. The engineering properties of the soil
show improvement upon the application of this bio-enzyme. Its amount of dose and type of soil available defines the
extent of improvement in the soil sample. The dosage of Terrazyme is taken as 200ml/1.5m3
, 200ml/1m3
and
200ml/0.5m3
in the soil sample at the Optimum Moisture Content and results are been analysed. A significant increase
is found in UCS and CBR value of the soil sample as the dosage of Terrazyme has been increased.
The effects of Terrazyme has given very positive results, is very effective and economically efficient. Also, this
enzyme is environment-friendly.
