Towards a low CO.sub.2 emission building material employing bacterial metabolism (1/2): The bacterial system and prototype production.(Research Article )

The production of concrete for construction purposes is a major source of anthropogenic CO.sub.2 emissions. One promising avenue towards a more sustainable construction industry is to make use of naturally occurring mineral-microbe interactions, such as microbial-induced carbonate precipitation (MIC...
