Improvement in strength properties of ash bricks by bacterial calcite

Carbonates are one of the most well known minerals that bacteria deposit by the phenomenon called microbiologically induced calcite precipitation (MICP). Such deposits have recently emerged as promising binders for protecting and consolidating various building materials. In the present study, we inv...
