Inhaltsangabe
This book offers comprehensive coverage of the principles and applications of achieving ground improvement using microbial biogeotechnologies—a new interdisciplinary field.
In Ground Improvement Using Microbial Biogeotechnologies, internationally recognized experts in soil mechanics, geotechnical engineering, and environmental microbiology explain how microbial technology can be used as part of a wide range of geoengineering applications and remediation methods to modify and improve poor and marginal soil and rock conditions. Biogeotechnology is a new interdisciplinary technical area that uses microbial technologies—living organisms—to solve geotechnical problems. It integrates microbiology with several different areas of civil engineering, including geotechnical, environmental, and earthquake engineering.
Topics covered in the book include microbially mediated bioclogging and biocementation of soil, biomitigation of soil liquefaction, and the application of these technologies. Biomediated precipitations of calcium, magnesium, and iron compounds such as carbonates, phosphates, sulphides, and silicate minerals in soil are considered from geotechnical, chemical, and biological points of view.
- Design principles and considerations for different field implementations are discussed
- Researchers and engineers will find new ways to develop effective solutions to geotechnical problems in soil improvement
- Construction engineers and project managers will learn how to save time and money with better remediation technology
