Description: In a world increasingly concerned with questions of energy production and raw material shortages, this video demonstrates an innovative and sustainable solution to material production; a microbially induced casting procedure, which presents the bacterium bacillus pasterurii as a method of cementing sand using minerals as binding agents. nnThe process forms mineral composites at biological temperatures. The biomaterial is structurally comparable to concrete, yet the production of the biomaterial
