Biocement

Biocement is an eco-friendly material created by using bacteria to naturally harden and bind soils or other particles together. When specific bacteria are introduced into loose materials, they produce minerals like calcium carbonate, which cements the particles in place, increasing strength and stability. This process mimics natural limestone formation and offers a sustainable alternative to traditional cement, reducing carbon emissions. Biocement is used for soil stabilization, construction, and repairing structures, providing a durable and environmentally conscious solution for engineering needs.
