To effectively stabilize coarse sand, bentonite was introduced in microbially induced carbonate precipitation (MICP) grouting. Varying concentrations (0, 20, 40, and 80 g/L) of bentonite were added to bacterial suspensions (BSs), which were magnetically stirred to form bacterial-bentonite suspension...
