This study examines the effectiveness of microbially induced carbonate precipitation (MICP) in treating fractured concrete. The results demonstrate the excellent penetrability of MICP and even distribution of precipitates along the core length. Treatment cycles led to a significant reduction in core permeability, and the effectiveness depended on fracture network characteristics. Additionally, bridging of precipitates across fracture surfaces resulted in a recovery of 26-50% of initial tensile strength.
The development of techniques for concrete repair will reduce environmental impacts associated with concrete usage by extending the lifespan of existing structures. This study investigates microbially induced carbonate precipitation (MICP) for treating fractured concrete. Our results demonstrate the excellent penetrability of MICP with precipitates well-distributed along core length. Some individual treatment cycles resulted in - one order of magnitude reduction in core permeability. Treatment efficiency is shown to be dependent on fracture network characteristics, i.e. number of fractures, fracture orientation, initial hydraulic aperture. Furthermore, bridging of precipitates across fracture surfaces resulted in a recovery of 26-50% of initial tensile strength.
