Biocementation Wall Stabilization: Eco-Friendly Soil Improvement at Caux Palace
Biocementation wall stabilization provides a sustainable alternative to traditional grouting methods for historic structures and heritage sites. This case study examines how Medusoil applied biocementation technology to stabilize the historic wall at Caux Palace, Switzerland, reducing carbon emissions by 60% compared to conventional cement injection while improving soil strength and preventing differential settlement. Key outcomes: […]
Biocementation geotechnical project: how Medusoil starts with data, then stabilizes the ground
A biocementation geotechnical project is a ground improvement job where we first measure what the soil is really doing, then we stabilize it using a bio-based mineralization process, and we keep monitoring to confirm performance. At Medusoil, we start by reducing uncertainty. We do not “guess” the subsurface. We build a fast, reliable picture of […]
How to reduce dust on a mining site without toxicity or wasted water
Dust remains one of the biggest challenges on a mine site.It impairs visibility, wears out machinery and affects workers’ health.To remedy this, most sites still use continuous watering or chlorinated salts (CaCl₂, MgCl₂).Expensive, short-lived and often harmful to the environment. This article aims to explain the principles and potential of biocimentation for dust control, based […]
Exploring biocementation on peat soils: a first step for SBB, Medusoil, and AMIGA (Group GVH, Institute Géotechnique, Monod-Piguet + Associés, ATB)
Peat soils are known in construction for their softness, high water content, and tendency to undergo large deformations under loads—factors that often complicate groundworks and infrastructure development. In a recent collaboration between Swiss Federal Railways (SBB/CFF), Medusoil, and the AMIGA group, a practical question was addressed: Can peat soils respond positively to biocementation, or do […]
A step forward in CO2-responsive construction materials
CO₂-Responsive Construction Materials: Capturing Emissions through Biomineralization Medusoil is pioneering a new class of nature-based solutions: a bio-cement that actively captures and mineralizes atmospheric CO₂. By leveraging microbial activity, this innovative technology provides a path toward carbon-neutral and carbon-negative construction for geotechnical and building applications. The Science: Carbon Drawdown through Microbial Activity At the core […]
