Strength and microstructure characteristics of MICP-modified cement soil in Nansha District of Guangzhou
转为含钙矿物沉淀,生成了更多的方解石和水化硅酸钙(C - S - H),减小了孔隙体积和孔径尺寸,使水泥土内部颗粒连结和空间结构更紧密,从而改善了水泥土的强度。
Abstract
The feasibility of using microbial induced carbonate precipitation (MICP) to improve the strength of cement soil in Nansha District of Guangzhou is studied. The unconfined compressive strength of the bacteria solution group cement soil, made by the mixed solution of bacteria solution and urea, is compared with the control group and the medium group. The effect of bacteria on the microstructure of cement soil is studied by ion concentration monitoring, XRD, SEM and mercury intrusion test, and the mechanism of strength improvement is discussed. The experimental results show that the compressive strength of 7 days, 14 days and 28 days in the bacteria solution group is 91.3%, 53.4% and 45.3% higher than that in the control group respectively, and the improvement range decreases with the increase of curing time. The medium and urea have negative effects on the strength of cement soil. Sporosarcina pasteurii hydrolyzes urea and provides nucleation site in the bacteria solution group cement soil, which promotes a large number of free Ca

to transform into calcium mineral precipitation, generates more calcite and hydrated calcium silicate (C-S-H), reduces the pore volume and pore size, makes the internal particle connection and spatial structure of cement soil more compact, thus improving the strength of cement soil.
