Immobilization of heavy metal contaminants in mining waste through enzyme-induced calcite precipitation biocementation

The presence of heavy metals affects the properties of soil due to a decrease in the dielectric constant, which increases the risk of contamination. Current conventional treatments are costly, slower, and environmentally unsustainable. Therefore, soil biocementation improvement using enzymatically i...
