Abstract

Microbially Induced Carbonate Precipitation (MICP) presents a promising avenue for sustainable carbon management, offering a rapid alternative to natural carbonate formation. This paper explores the potential of MICP, particularly through ureolysis, in carbon storage and greenhouse gas mitigation. Urease-producing bacteria play a key role by converting CO2 into calcium carbonate (CaCO3). These microbes thrive in various environments, from soils to construction sites, making MICP a versatile tool for Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS). This process not only results in the formation of solid carbonates but also effectively sequesters CO2, positioning MICP as a transformative approach for climate change mitigation. The article highlights MICP’s capacity to harness microbial activities for environmental benefits, emphasizing its importance in reducing atmospheric CO2 levels and contributing to a more sustainable future.

加强碳中性:透视微生物诱导碳酸盐沉淀 (MICP) 的作用
微生物诱导碳酸盐沉淀(MICP)为可持续碳管理提供了一条前景广阔的途径,可迅速替代天然碳酸盐的形成。本文探讨了微生物诱导碳酸盐沉淀(MICP),特别是通过尿素分解,在碳储存和温室气体减排方面的潜力。产生尿素酶的细菌通过将二氧化碳转化为碳酸钙(CaCO3)发挥着关键作用。这些微生物在从土壤到建筑工地的各种环境中繁衍生息,使 MICP 成为碳捕集与封存 (CCS) 的多功能工具。这一过程不仅能形成固体碳酸盐,还能有效封存二氧化碳,使 MICP 成为减缓气候变化的一种变革性方法。文章强调了 MICP 利用微生物活动为环境造福的能力,强调了它在降低大气二氧化碳含量和促进更可持续的未来方面的重要性。
