Rapid Expeditionary Biomineralization for Enhanced Land Stabilization (REBELS)

TECHNOLOGY SUMMARY

Biomineralization is driven by a natural soil bacteria – when applied to substrates such as sand the microbes adhere to surfaces and build crystalline calcium carbonate (CaCO3). As biocementation solution is added, the crystalline network grows and fuses structural connections between aggregates, resulting in strong cemented surfaces.
