abstract = {Microbial-Induced Calcite Precipitation (MICP) stimulates
soil microbiota to induce a cementation of the soil matrix.
Urea, calcium and simple carbon nutrients are supplied to
produce carbonates via urea hydrolysis and induce the
precipitation of the mineral calcite. Calcium chloride
(CaCl2) is typically used as a source for calcium, but basic
silicate rocks and other materials have been investigated as
alternatives. Weathering of calcium-rich silicate rocks
(e.g., basalt and dolerite) releases calcium, magnesium and
iron; this process is associated with sequestration of
atmospheric CO2 and formation of pedogenic carbonates. We
investigated atmospheric carbon fluxes of a MICP treated
sandy soil using CaCl2 and dolerite fines applied on the
soil surface as sources for calcium. Soil-atmosphere carbon
fluxes were monitored over 2 months and determined with an
infrared gas analyser connected to a soil chamber. Soil
inorganic carbon content and isotopic composition were
determined with isotope-ratio mass spectrometry. In
addition, soil-atmosphere CO2 fluxes during chemical
weathering of dolerite fines were investigated in incubation
experiments with gas chromatography. Larger CO2 emissions
resulted from the application of dolerite fines (116 g CO2-C
m–2) compared to CaCl2 (79 g CO2-C m–2) but larger
inorganic carbon precipitation also occurred (172.8 and 76.9
g C m–2, respectively). Normalising to the emitted carbon
to precipitated carbon, the environmental carbon cost was
reduced with dolerite fines (0.67) compared to the
traditional MICP treatment (1.01). The carbon isotopic
signature indicated pedogenic carbonates (δ13Cav = −8.2
± 5.0‰) formed when dolerite was applied and carbon
originating from urea (δ13Cav = −46.4 ± 1.0‰)
precipitated when CaCl2 was used. Dolerite fines had a large
but short-lived (<2 d) carbon sequestration potential, and
results indicated peak CO2 emissions during MICP could be
balanced optimising the application of dolerite fines.},
