| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The aim of this study is to develop the new geoengineering technology for soil improvement applying microbial activity. This study evaluated the effect of calcium carbonate precipitation induced by denitrification for the geoengineering properties of sand ground. We established the effective method to extract the inoculum of denitrifying bacteria from natural sediment through some incubations. We confirmed the denitrification by the inoculum and the precipitation in the sand column. The result of the sand model experiments indicated the potential use of the nitrogen gas production through denitrification for desaturation effect of sand ground. The transformation of the gas through sand ground can be controlled by several parameters, such as the bacterial reaction speed, the concentration of the substrates, and the pore size and the structure of sand ground. The farther evaluation is required for the ground application like liquefaction countermeasure and slope stabilization.
