Biogrout propagation in soils

Microbial Induced Calcite Precipitation (MICP) is an innovative technique for soil grouting in which injected bacteria supplemented with chemicals lead to calcite precipitation in soils. A comprehensive research work is carried out to better understand and ...

A Bio-hydro-mechanical Model for Propagation of Biogrout in Soils

Lyesse Laloui

Conventional soil improvement techniques can lead to permanent soil pollution or emission of carbon dioxide. It is therefore a challenge for engineers to design alternative sustainable and cost-effective grouting techniques. In Microbial Induced Calcite Pr ...

Biological reduction of chlorinated solvents: Batch-scale geochemical modeling

David Andrew Barry, Clare Robinson

Simulation of biodegradation of chlorinated solvents in dense non-aqueous phase liquid (DNAPL) source zones requires a model that accounts for the complexity of processes involved and that is consistent with available laboratory studies. This paper describ ...

Hydrogeochemical Modelling of Variably Saturated Soils : Model Development and Application to Bauxite Refining Residue

Laurin Wissmeier

This thesis is about the simulation of flow, transport and geochemical reactions in variably saturated soils. Motivated by the problematic disposal and revegetation of residue from aluminium refining, novel modelling tools for general geochemical reactions ...

Effect of mineral reactions on the hydraulic properties of unsaturated soils: Model development and application

David Andrew Barry, Laurin Wissmeier

The selective radius shift model was used to relate changes in mineral volume due to precipitation/dissolution reactions to changes in hydraulic properties affecting flow in porous media. The model accounts for (i) precipitation/dissolution taking place on ...

Single-molecule force spectroscopy of a protein globule covalently bound to a calcite surface

Giovanni Dietler, Serguei Sekatski

Two methods of covalent grafting of a protein onto a calcite surface were developed. Single-molecule force spectroscopy was used to examine the characteristics of individual albumin-albumin polyclonal body complexes. The practical applicability of the prop ...

Covalent attachment of proteins to calcite surface for the single molecule experiments

Serguei Sekatski

Two protocols of covalent attachment of proteins onto the calcite surface, viz. one using the metallochelat and second using the aminohexil, are elaborated. Single molecule force spectroscopy method has been used to test their efficiency and practical appl ...
