Corrosion prevention of reinforced concrete with microbial calcite precipitation

Microbially induced calcite precipitation (MICP) on concrete or mortar is an important area of research to enhance the durability of construction materials. The effectiveness of MICP in reducing reinforcement corrosion is investigated. Reinforced concrete (RC) specimens were treated with the bacteri...
