Abstract:

With solid data from environmental scientists supporting climate change there has been a strong push in the industry to look for alternative “green” or environmentally friendly methods to keep building and maintaining our infrastructure. This collaborative report looks into microbial processes to stabilize soil subgrade for roadways and asphalt like liquids extracted from algae. Not only are new bio technologies looked into for building but also microbial deterioration is looked into and needs to be addressed when evaluating the life cycle of a capital project.
