Abstract

This review aims to quantify the impact of calcium chloride in cementation solutions on Microbial Induced Calcite Precipitation (MICP). Specific soil strength properties, such as the Unconfined Compressive Strength (UCS) test, permeability (k) and calcium carbonate content of the soil, form the basis of quantifying the test results. Relevant articles from various online databases such as Scopus, Science Direct, ProQuest Dissertations and Theses Global (PQDT), Mendeley and Google Scholar are obtained with search strings of suitable keywords. The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) were used to screen and select related articles based on exclusion and inclusion characteristics. This review shows a positive correlation between calcium concentrations and soil strength properties, where higher concentrations of calcium solutions induce stronger bonding between soil particles due to better calcite precipitation. However, we also note a reversed correlation when the concentration of calcium solutions is higher than 1 M. This review also verifies that the MICP process enhances soil strength using optimum calcium chloride concentration to avoid soil brittleness. This result benefits other fields, such as agricultural and soil engineering.
