Direct Pore‐Scale Numerical Simulation of Microbially Induced Calcium Carbonate Precipitation by Mohammad Amin Razbani, Espen Jettestuen, Anja Røyne

“…We also explored effects of biomass density and biomass distribution on the reactive transport factors, as well as the effect of the urea to calcium ratio on the resulting crystallization patterns. We found that a higher ratio of rate of ureolysis to rate of precipitation leads to more nucleation sites and more uniform calcite precipitation in the geometry.…”
