fugiat nulla pariatur.
formations will allow water and other corrosive substances to ingress into the concrete
structure, as a result, accelerating structural degradation. The team came up with an
idea to devise a novel method to mitigate these crack formations by incorporating self-
healing bacteria into the concrete matrix. These bacteria in their dormant state can
precipitate solid calcium carbonate crystals through the process called Microbially-
induced calcium carbonate precipitation(MICP). These crystals fill pores and cracks,
enhancing the concrete’s structural integrity and preventing the penetration of water,
gasses and other corrosive substances into the concrete matrix.
3.2.2 Material Details

The production of our double encapsulation product involves the use of carefully
selected materials that contribute to its unique properties and performance. These
materials are specifically chosen to enhance the strength, durability, and longevity of
concrete structures. Through meticulous research and development, we have identified
a precise combination of components that work synergistically to deliver exceptional
results. Our material selection process prioritizes quality, sustainability, and
compliance with industry standards, ensuring that our product meets the highest level
of performance and reliability.

3.2.3 Production Steps and Details

After identifying the materials and their sources, the next step is to specify the steps in
order to integrate the components. Engineering principles were applied for reliability
of the product.
Step 1: Preparation of Reagents and Chemicals

Figure 1. Preparation of reagents and chemicals


Nutrient Broth, Nutrient Agar, Yeast Extract, and Peptone will be purchased from HiMedia
Labs (India) through a local supplier (Manila). The NaCl-Peptone buffer will be purchased
from Huankai Microbial (Beijing), the Calcium Lactate (USP G1) and Calcium chloride will
be purchased from Dalkem (Manila), Manganese sulfate monohydrate, for the purpose of
spore growth stimulation, will be purchased from Scharlau (Germany) through a local
supplier. Sodium alginate will be purchased from Tianjin Analytical (Tianjin), Glacial
acetic acid will be purchased from RCI Labscan (Thailand) through a local supplier.
Sodium lauryl sulfate, Xanthan gum, and ordinary portland cement will all be purchased
and sourced locally from Megawise, Greenola, and Holcim, respectively.

Step 2. Bacterial Collection and Isolation

Figure 2. Calcifying bacteria collected from a cave

The bacteria strains will be collected from a cave in Sikyop, Iligan city and Camiguin
Island, Philippines.
Step 3: Growth Media Preparation

Figure 3. Process of producing bacterial spores into a powder form: (a) the culture being shaken, (b)
centrifugation process, (c) the separated cells pellet and medium supernatant, (d) freeze-drying of
the cell pellets

The Bacillus bacteria will be grown in separate containers with a special liquid called
Nutrient broth. The broth will be adjusted to a specific pH level using a chemical called
NaOH. Then it will be heated up using a machine called an autoclave to kill any germs.
After that, the bacteria will be added to the broth and kept in a warm and shaking machine
for 72 hours. When the bacteria grow to a certain point, they will be separated from the
liquid by spinning them very fast in a machine called a centrifuge. The separated bacteria
will be washed two times with a special solution to remove any harmful substances. The
liquid part will be thrown away, and the remaining bacteria will be stored in another
solution at a cold temperature. To check if the bacteria are growing in a certain way, two
staining procedures will be done using special dyes.
Step 4: Preparation of Difco Sporulation Medium

Figure 4. Blank difco sporulation medium (dsm)

To increase the amount of spores, they will be grown in a special medium called DSM
(Difco sporulation medium). After collecting the spores into a pellet, they will be placed in
a flask containing 100mL of DSM with a pH of 8. DSM is prepared in two steps: making a
mixture of 8g of Nutrient broth, 1g of KCl, and 0.25g of MgSO4 with a pH of 8, and then
adding 10mL of sterile Calcium Lactate (CaL) solution (concentration of 0.5 M) to 100mL
of the nutrient broth. After that, a mixture of Calcium nitrate, MnCl2, and FeSO4 (in
specific amounts) will be autoclaved and added to the solution using a syringe filter.
Finally, the spores will be harvested following the same procedure as described earlier in
step 3.
Step 5. Microencapsulation

Source: Thermofisher Scientific Incorporation


Figure 5. Machine used for encapsulating the spores. The spray dryer

The harvested spores will be mixed in a solution, which comprised of sodium alginate (2%
wt/v), and nutrient broth (8 g/L with CaL spore growth stimulant) and will be thoroughly
dissolved in distilled water and autoclaved at 121°C for 18 minutes. For the first layer, the
alginate mixture will be atomized through a spray dryer with an inlet temperature of
105C. The powder will then be collected from the collecting vessel. For the second layer, a
0.5% (wt./v) chitosan solution (Sinopharm) in 1000mL of 1% (v/v) Acetic acid will be
prepared, and the solution will be filtered through a nylon cloth to separate the insoluble
material. The beads obtained from the spray dryer will be added to the chitosan solution
and then atomized through the same spray dryer. The powder will then be obtained from
the vessel and then kept at room temperature.
3.2.4 Product Application

Our product, the double encapsulated beads, are seamlessly integrated into the
mortar during the concrete mixing process. As the concrete cures and hardens, the
beads become an integral part of the structure. In the event of cracks or damage to
the concrete, the encapsulated beads serve a crucial role. Once exposed to the
cracks, the specialized bacteria within the beads are activated and begin producing
calcite. This calcite acts as a self-healing agent, effectively sealing and repairing the
cracks by filling them with mineral deposits. This innovative technology ensures that
the concrete maintains its strength and durability over time, as any damage is
autonomously addressed and healed. By incorporating Lorem the ipsumdouble-encapsulated
dolor sit amet,
beads into the concrete, we provide a sustainable solution that enhances the lifespan

material. In line with this, the
company will further develop the compatibility of double-encapsulated beads in different
types of concrete, such as high-strength concrete, lightweight foamed concrete, or fiber-
reinforced concrete. The company would also like to investigate the compatibility and
potential synergies between encapsulated bacteria and other concrete additives such as
