PG - 158465 LID - S0048-9697(22)05564-4 [pii] LID - 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2022.158465 [doi] AB - Microbiologically induced calcite precipitation (MICP) technology shows potential for remediating heavy metal pollution; however, the underlying mechanism of heavy metal mineralization is not well-understood, limiting the application of this technology. In this study, we targeted Cd contamination (using 15:1, 25:1, and 50:1 Ca(2+)/Cd(2+) molar ratios) and showed that the ureolytic bacteria Sporosarcina ureilytica ML-2 removed >99.7 % Cd(2+) with a maximum fixation capacity of 75.61 mg-Cd/g-CaCO(3) and maximum precipitation production capacity of 135.99 mg-CaCO(3)/mg-cells. Quantitative PCR analysis showed that Cd(2+) inhibited the expression of urease genes (ureC, ureE, ureF, and ureG) by 70 % in the ML-2 strain. Additionally, the pseudo-first-order kinetics model (R(2) = 0.9886), intraparticle diffusion model (R(2) = 0.9972), and Temkin isotherm model (R(2) = 0.9828) described the immobilization process of Cd(2+) by bio calcite in MICP-Cd system. The three Cd(2+) mineralization products generated by MICP were attributed to surface precipitation (Cd(2+) --> Cd(OH)(2)), direct binding with the CO(3)(2-)/substitution calcium site of calcite (Cd(2+) --> CdCO(3), otavite), and calcite lattice vacancy anchors (Cd(2+) --> (Ca(x)Cd(1-x))CO(3)). Our findings improve the understanding of the mechanisms by which MICP can achieve in situ stabilization of heavy metals. CI - Copyright (c) 2022. Published by Elsevier B.V.
