Calcium Carbonate Precipitation with Growth Profile of Isolated Ureolytic Strains
Bharathi N
Abstract: Natural sources, number of diverse microbial species participate in the carbonate precipitation in different natural environment as in soils, in geological formation, saline caco3 and ocean. Ureolytic bacterial strains play vital role in calcium carbonate precipitation for various applications including industrial, health and environmental aspects. Based on the ureolytic behaviour, four isolated strains are selected for this study. The presented works on bacterial calcium carbonate precipitation for determine the actual calcium precipitation and ammonium concentration with their growth profile of isolated strains.
