Reinforcement of Tailings Sand by Stimulation of Native Microorganisms Induces Mineralization

Abstract

AbstractReinforcement of tailings sand requires both improving mechanical properties and immobilizing heavy metals, while also considering cost, microbial environmental impacts, and applicability in practical engineering. Biostimulation of a microbially ...Practical ApplicationsThis research introduces a cost-effective and environmentally friendly method for reinforcing tailings sand and mitigating heavy metal pollution, which is a pressing challenge in mining waste management. By stimulating native ...
