In this study, calcium carbonate was formed on the surfaces and inner structure of concrete using the microbially induced carbonate precipitation method. Bacillus megaterium bacteria were supplemented into the curing water and concrete mixtures. Three types of concrete were tested: control concrete, bacteria-containing concrete, and concrete cured in bacterial liquid. Compressive strength, water absorption, capillary water absorption, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and mapping analyses were conducted to investigate the effects of bacterial additive or bacterial curing to concrete specimen

Abstract: Cement mortar durability is the function of its internal pore structure and distribution, porosity and its permeation properties. Research has shown that some specific bacterial species isolatedfrom soil can tolerate harsh and challenging alkaline environment and can be used in remediating cracks in cement mortar structures. This state of-the-art microbial based crack healing mechanism is one such phenomenon on which studies were carried out to investigate the role of calcite mineral precipitation in improvement of durability in bacteria integrated cement mortar.

Concrete possesses pores and the propensity to develop microcracks, both of which are very undesirable since they facilitate the penetration through water along with additional harmful elements into the building element. Using Microbiologically Induced Calcite Precipitation (MICP), the Bacterial Self Compacting technique is a potential way to fill concrete fractures. To promote the deposition of calcium carbonate within the concrete material, microorganisms use the urease enzyme in this process.

Bacterial concrete is a possible approach toward sustainability in concrete construction through crack-healing. Including a bacterial culture as an admixture in concrete can enhance the service life of a structure through the self-healing of cracks. Incorporating bacterial cells as an admixture in concrete is a major challenge as bacteria are living organisms with a limited shelf-life. It is essential to evaluate the shelf-life of bacterial cultures to encourage the inclusion of bacteria in concrete applications.

Nevertheless, the low alkaline tolerance and breakage ratios of the hydrogels after concrete cracking restrict their applications in concrete.

The DAF fire suppression system includes 29 carbon steel lead-in lines that run underground from the header loop line to a variety of risers inside the DAF. The lead-in lines are fabricated from 4-in. or 6-in. diameter carbon steel pipes lined and coated with coal tar enamel (CTE). Particles and flakes of the CTE lining have been appearing in water used to flush the fire suppression piping since the in

Abstract:
Concrete is a critical component of so much of the modern construction industry. This material, well known for its versatility, robustness, longevity, and strength, is well-suited for a wide range of structural applications. Nonetheless, the widespread occurrence of cracks in concrete structures, primarily attributed to its limited tensile strength, shrinkage, and overstain, imposes a considerable economic and environmental challenge when it comes to retrofitting these fissures. This study tackles this problem by harnessing bacteria tolerant to high alkaline conditions to enable Microbially In

Abstract:
Although concrete is the most widely used building material in the world, its limited tensile strength makes cracking a common phenomenon in concrete elements. This study investigates the potential of autonomous self-healing as an eco-friendly and lowcost method to increase the durability of concrete. The crack-healing potential of different types of high-alkaline-tolerant bacteria or calcite-precipitation microorganisms is investigated. High-alkaline-tolerant bacteria and calcite-precipitation microorganisms were used to retrofit lab-fractured concrete samples. The samples healed with each of

Abstract:
Cracking is one of the most critical distresses experienced by pavement infrastructure. Both flexible and rigid pavement cracking allow for water intrusion, which can in turn cause freeze–thaw damage and structural issues, causing premature failure. In addition, rigid pavements suffer from corrosion of reinforcing steel, which impedes the ability of the steel to resist deformation of the surface layer. One proposed technology to mitigate such cracking is the engineering of self-healing materials in pavements that can autogenously heal damage at the microscale. However, these technologies are n
