Bacteria with ureasic activity are microorganisms found in soil that in presence of urea and calcium, they can produce calcium carbonate, a process known as microbiologically induced calcium carbonate precipitation (MICP). This article discusses this process and its mechanism, as well as bacterial urease, calcium carbonate crystals formed, and factors that affect the efficiency of MICP, as type of bacteria, bacterial cell concentrations, pH, temperature and calcium and urea concentrations. In addition, applications as removal of heavy metals in water, bioconsolidation, biocement and CO2 sequestration are also discussed.

Las bacterias con actividad ureásica son microorganismos que se encuentran en el suelo, y que en presencia de urea y calcio, pueden producir carbonato de calcio, proceso conocido como precipitación de calcio inducida microbiológicamente (PCIM). Este artículo trata este proceso y su mecanismo, además de las ureasas de origen bacteriano, los cristales de carbonato de calcio formado, los factores que afectan la eficiencia la PCIM, como el tipo de bacteria, las concentraciones de células bacterianas, el pH, la temperatura y las concentraciones de calcio y urea. Además, se incluye las aplicaciones como la remoción de metales pesados en aguas, la bioconsolidación, biocemento y secuestro de CO2.
