Microwave Treatment of Stone Surfaces for the Devitalization of Biodeteriogens
The experimental work described in this paper is aimed at evaluating the possibility of applying microwave heating to a restoration project. The technique involves the application of microwaves to stone surfaces affected by biodeterioration. Results showed that the pests were completely devitalised....
