Evaluation of Calcium Carbonate Precipitation by Bacillus spp. Isolated from Stingless Bee Products. Sains Malaysiana, 52 (6). pp. 1723-1735. ISSN 2735-0118 (2023)



Abstract

Microbiologically Induced Calcium Carbonate Precipitation (MICCP) through urea hydrolysis is the most effective way to precipitate a high concentration of calcium carbonate (CaCO3) within a short time. The MICCP process is used to remediate the micro-crack in the concrete. However, limited research has been conducted to determine CaCO3 precipitation by bacteria, especially in Malaysia. Here, Bacillus spp. isolated from the Malaysian stingless bee products were evaluated for CaCO3 precipitation. Bacillus spp. were selected for further study according to their ability to produce urease enzymes.
