Implementación de Bacterias para el Hormigón autorreparable.

Abstract

Currently the environmental problem is worrying for our society, in which the pollution index grows significantly annually, so the need to find solutions persists to this condition in the construction industry, This industry is one of the most influential to the called greenhouse gases. For this reason, new technological studies are sought, since around 2006 it has been possible to develop a concrete that can be repaired with bacteria, demonstrating that this will destroy ductility, in addition to this it will be a material that will take much longer, it will have a much longer useful life. higher, up to approximately 200 years, will thus reduce repair costs, but also reduce the environmental impact of doing repairs manually. The bacteria most used in this process is Bacillus Pseudofirmus, who thanks to them excellent results are obtained in cracks at temperatures of warmer or less than 23°C. Finally, a respective analysis is made as a consequence of what is reflected in this investigation.
