Characterizing Microbial and CO<sub>2</sub>-Induced Carbonate Minerals: Implications for Soil Stabilization in Sandy Environments

This study aimed to investigate the structure and shape of carbonate crystals induced through microbial activity and carbon dioxide reactions in the sand. The strength of sandy soil treated with carbonate minerals was subsequently determined using unconfined compression strength (UCS) tests. <i&g...
