ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE AND POLLUTION RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2022; 29:89899-89922. [PMID: 36369439 DOI: 10.1007/s11356-022-24046-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/22/2022] [Accepted: 11/02/2022] [Indexed: 06/16/2023]
Abstract
Microbially induced carbonate precipitation (MICP) is a remarkable method that creates sustainable cementitious binding material for use in geotechnical/structural engineering and environmental engineering. This is due to the increasing demand for alternative environmentally friendly technologies and materials that result in minimal or zero carbon footprint. In contrast to the previously published literature, through bibliometric analysis, this review paper focuses on the current prospects and future research trends of MICP technology via the Scopus database and VOSviewer analysis. The objective of the study was to determine the annual publications and citations trend, most contributing countries, the leading journals, prolific authors, productive institutions, funding sponsors, trending author keywords, and research directions of MICP. There were a total of 1058 articles published from 2001 to 2021 on MICP. The result demonstrated that the volume of publications is increasing. China, Construction and Building Materials, Satoru Kawasaki, Nanyang Technological University, and the National Natural Science Foundation of China are the leading country, journal, author, institution, and funding sponsor in terms of total publications. Through the co-occurrence analysis of the author keywords, MICP was revealed to be the most frequently used author keyword with 121 occurrences, a total link strength of 213, and 152 links to other author keywords. Furthermore, co-occurrence analysis of text data revealed that researchers are concentrating on four important research areas: precipitation, MICP, compressive strength, and biomineralization. This review can provide information to researchers that can lead to novel ideas and research collaboration or engagement on MICP technology.

Harnpicharnchai P, Mayteeworakoon S, Kitikhun S, Chunhametha S, Likhitrattanapisal S, Eurwilaichitr L, Ingsriswang S. High level of calcium carbonate precipitation achieved by mixed culture containing ureolytic and non-ureolytic bacterial strains. Lett Appl Microbiol 2022; 75:888-898. [PMID: 35611563 DOI: 10.1111/lam.13748] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/08/2021] [Revised: 05/13/2022] [Accepted: 05/17/2022] [Indexed: 12/01/2022]
Abstract
This study demonstrates a remarkably high level of microbial-induced calcium carbonate precipitation (MICP) using a mixed culture containing TBRC 1396 (Priestia megaterium), TBRC 8147 (Neobacillus drentensis), and ATCC 11859 (Sporosarcina pasteurii) bacterial strains. The mixed culture produced CaCO3 weights 1.4 times higher than those obtained from S. pasteurii, the gold standard for efficient MICP processes. The three strains were selected after characterization of various Bacillus spp. and related species for their ability to induce the MICP process, especially in an alkaline and high temperature environment. Results showed that TBRC 1396 and TBRC 8147 strains, as well as TBRC 5949 (Bacillus subtilis) and TBRC 8986 (Priestia aryabhattai) strains, could generate calcium carbonate at pH 9-12 and temperature 30-40 °C, which is suitable for construction and consolidation purposes. The TBRC 8147 strain also exhibited CaCO3 precipitation at 45 °C. The TBRC 8986 and TBRC 8147 strains are non-ureolytic bacteria capable of MICP in the absence of urea, which can be used to avoid the generation of undesirable ammonia associated with the ureolytic MICP process. These findings facilitate the successful use of MICP as a sustainable and environmentally friendly technology for the development of various materials, including self-healing concrete and soil consolidation.

Potential role for microbial ureolysis in the rapid formation of carbonate tufa mounds. GEOBIOLOGY 2022; 20:79-97. [PMID: 34337850 DOI: 10.1111/gbi.12467] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/23/2021] [Accepted: 07/10/2021] [Indexed: 06/13/2023]
Abstract
Modern carbonate tufa towers in the alkaline (~pH 9.5) Big Soda Lake (BSL), Nevada, exhibit rapid precipitation rates (exceeding 3 cm/year) and host diverse microbial communities. Geochemical indicators reveal that carbonate precipitation is, in part, promoted by the mixing of calcium-rich groundwater and carbonate-rich lake water, such that a microbial role for carbonate precipitation is unknown. Here, we characterize the BSL microbial communities and evaluate their potential effects on carbonate precipitation that may influence fast carbonate precipitation rates of the active tufa mounds of BSL. Small subunit rRNA gene surveys indicate a diverse microbial community living endolithically, in interior voids, and on tufa surfaces. Metagenomic DNA sequencing shows that genes associated with metabolisms that are capable of increasing carbonate saturation (e.g., photosynthesis, ureolysis, and bicarbonate transport) are abundant. Enzyme activity assays revealed that urease and carbonic anhydrase, two microbial enzymes that promote carbonate precipitation, are active in situ in BSL tufa biofilms, and urease also increased calcium carbonate precipitation rates in laboratory incubation analyses. We propose that, although BSL tufas form partially as a result of water mixing, tufa-inhabiting microbiota promote rapid carbonate authigenesis via ureolysis, and potentially via bicarbonate dehydration and CO2 outgassing by carbonic anhydrase. Microbially induced calcium carbonate precipitation in BSL tufas may generate signatures preserved in the carbonate microfabric, such as stromatolitic layers, which could serve as models for developing potential biosignatures on Earth and elsewhere.

Abstract
Although enzyme mimics have been widely developed, limited catalytic efficiency is still a bottleneck, especially under neutral condition. Herein, we reported the bioactive quinaldic acid (QA) significantly boosted the peroxidase-like activity of Co2+ in the presence of bicarbonate (HCO3-). With 2,2'-azino-bis-(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonate) (ABTS) as the substrate, the catalytic activity of Co2+ (1 μM) was increased by over 300 times upon adding 100 μM QA. The formed Co2+ complex had much higher turnover number (5.52 min-1) than that of cobalt-based nanozymes (0.011-0.51 min-1) in decomposing H2O2. Based on this system, ultrasensitive colorimetric methods for the detection of Co2+, bicarbonate and urease activity were achieved with limits of detection of 4.6 nM, 40 μM and 0.00125 U/mL, respectively. For the first time, this work established an ultrasensitive method for the detection of urease activity by activating a peroxidase-like mimic with the produced HCO3-.
