The rapid growth in engineering and technology has paved way for searching of innovative methods and sustainable material for construction. The economic aspects associated with deterioration of concretes accelerated the search for sustainable bacterial concretes with self-healing application. Biomineralization approach could be successfully used for tackling out the problems associated with synthetic concretes and could be exploited commercially in manufacturing industries. In spite of its immense potential this technique still remains in its ground state and need more focus for its commercialization. This work summarizes the underlying principles behind self-healing microbial concretes and their application for sustainable constructions.

Biomineralization, concrete, encapsulation, embedment.
