Abstract:

In tropical islands, calcareous sand with poor engineering properties usually needs to be treated before it can be used as building materials. Considering the scarcity of freshwater in these areas, this study proposes seawater-based enzyme induced carbonate precipitation (EICP) technology to enhance the properties of calcareous sand. It is to induce calcium carbonate crystals to bond calcareous sand particles together using the seawater-based crude soybean enzyme and cementation solution (i.e., urea and calcium chloride). In this study, the crude soybean urease extraction test was firstly carried out using seawater and it was also investigated what components of seawater had a greater effect on the soybean urease extraction. Afterwards, the solution test was conducted to explore the ability of the extracted urease in inducing calcium carbonate through analyzing the variation of concentration of calcium ions and pH of the solution. Finally, the biocementation effect of EICP treated calcareous sand using the seawater extracted urease solution was evaluated by the unconfined compressive strength (quc) and microscopic analysis. Test results show that the turbidity of the seawater-extracted soybean urease solution can be reduced by 66.7% compared to that of deionised water extracted urease, with only a slight reduction in urease activity. Among all the components of seawater, NaCl, MgCl2, CaCl2, NaHCO3 and KBr can significantly reduce the turbidity of soybean urease solution. The lower turbidity can effectively avoid bioclogging and contribute to the homogeneity of the EICP-treated calcareous sands, and thus improve the biomineralization efficiency and strength enhancement. Seawater-based EICP treatment will be a great promising technology in freshwater-scarce tropical islands, because it can directly use seawater for biomineralization treatment of calcareous sand, and meanwhile effectively avoid local clogging of biocementation.
