Bioestabilización de suelos en taludes mediante la precipitación de calcita inducida microbiológicamente

Abstract

Abstract: The purpose of this research is to know the efficiency of biostabilization on slopes affected by landslides or erosion. The study area was chosen based on an artificial slope in the neighborhood integration road of the Carigan neighborhood of the city of Loja. For this investigation, physical and chemical and geomechanical characterization tests of the soil belonging to the slope under study were carried out, in addition the biology was evaluated. The microorganism that was produced for biological biology was Sporosarcina pasteurii sp, which was activated and inoculated in the remodeled test tubes of the slope soil. This bacterium precipitates calcium carbonate that allows to unite the fine particles of the soil, to allow a determination in the slope. Once the application of the microorganism was finished, the aforementioned parameters were reanalyzed where it was obtained that the biological improved by improving the mechanical properties of resistance in the clayey soil.
