Use of a biological additive to enhance the physical-mechanical and thermal properties of concrete

The effect of the addition of a biological ingredient composed primarily of calcific bacteria (T. ferroxidans, T. thioxidans, Desulfovibrio and Sulfolobus acidularios) on the properties of concrete is studied. The biological additive was synthesized based on native cultures in a nutritive medium (m...
