Microbial-Induced Carbonate Precipitation for Strengthening Soft Clay by J. Z. Xiao, Y. Q. Wei, H. Cai, Z. W. Wang, T. Yang, Q. H. Wang, S. F. Wu

“…The water content in MICP-treated specimens was significantly reduced by the MICP reactions and in one case decreased from 40% to 30.73%. (3) The strength enhancement of microbially solidified soft clay is the result of two processes: urea hydration catalyzed by enzymes consumes water in the clay and the bacterially precipitated calcite forms in the sediment’s pores. (4) The micro-organism-produced calcite in the soft clay increases the calcite abundance from 0% to as much as 3.5%. (5) The MICP-treated strength of soft clay varies with the concentration of the nutrients provided. …”
