Biological approaches have recently been explored as environmentally friendly alternatives
to engineered soil methods in geotechnical engineering practices. The use of microbial …

Microbial biopolymers have recently been introduced as a new material for soil treatment
and improvement. Biopolymers provide significant strengthening to soil, even in small …

Natural polymers (biopolymers) are discussed as environmentally friendly and sustainable
grouting chemicals. This paper presents guidelines for selecting potentially useful …

Conventional geotechnical engineering soil binders such as ordinary cement or lime have
environmental issues in terms of sustainable development. Thus, environmentally friendly …

The use of admixtures in soils to improve their properties has been implemented since
ancient times. Diverse conventional admixtures such as lime, fly ash, and cement have been …

Various biological approaches recently have been explored as alternative environmentally-
friendly soil improvement strategies in the fields of construction and geotechnical …

Soil stabilization through biological methods is a sustainable, efficient and long-term
alternative to conventional techniques. An elaborate study on the engineering behaviour of …

Soft marine soil has high fine-grained soil content and in-situ water content. Thus, it has low
shear strength and bearing capacity and is susceptible to a large settlement, which leads to …

This paper presents the effectiveness of xanthan gum (XG) biopolymer in stabilising the
expansive soil. The XG biopolymer is mixed with expansive soil in different proportions such …

Recently, microbial biopolymer-based soil treatment (BPST) has gained attention for its
application in environmentally friendly soil stabilization, particularly for enhancing the …
