AB  - Microbiologically induced calcium carbonate precipitation (MICP) is a technique 
      that has received a lot of attention in the field of geotechnology in the last 
      decade. It has the potential to provide a sustainable and ecological alternative 
      to conventional consolidation of minerals, for example by the use of cement. From 
      a variety of microbiological metabolic pathways that can induce calcium carbonate 
      (CaCO(3)) precipitation, ureolysis has been established as the most commonly used 
      method. To better understand the mechanisms of MICP and to develop new processes 
      and optimize existing ones based on this understanding, ureolytic MICP is the 
      subject of intensive research. The interplay of biological and civil engineering 
      aspects shows how interdisciplinary research needs to be to advance the potential 
      of this technology. This paper describes and critically discusses, based on 
      current literature, the key influencing factors involved in the cementation of 
      sand by ureolytic MICP. Due to the complexity of MICP, these factors often 
      influence each other, making it essential for researchers from all disciplines to 
      be aware of these factors and its interactions. Furthermore, this paper discusses 
      the opportunities and challenges for future research in this area to provide 
      impetus for studies that can further advance the understanding of MICP.
